I've seen a ton of online courses and @pjrvs has created one of the most well-designed and easy to navigate courses. The newly added Member Dashboard is a great way to interact with fellow Creative Class'ers, and the additional Slack community goes one step deeper. Paul's stuff is always super high quality!

@iwearyourshirt I like your new tagline, it perfectly sums you up!

Want to become a better freelancer? If your answer is yes then you should totally take this class. I've learned a ton and significantly boosted my career. Thanks Paul for the tips and the insights! 👌

I'm not even a freelancer, but just the sales page & video is a joy to study.
Paul Jarvis
@ramin Thanks Ramin!
Clark Valberg
Awesome work Paul. Hearing a lot of great things about the course.
Paul Jarvis
@clarkvalberg Thanks man! Excited to be doing a few fun things with InVision shortly :)
Conrad Wadowski
Great work on the course and page Paul! Wish something like this was the world when I was doing deep in consulting a few years back :)
Paul Jarvis
@conradwa Thanks! I wish this was available when I started too, would have saved me a lot of expensive errors (but really, that's why I made it).

Hey all - decided to put my online course Creative Class on PH. It's been completely redesigned, reprogrammed and I even rewrote all the copy! Phew, even typing that is tiring :) The course has taught over 1,500 freelancers so far the business of freelancing and really sums up my 17+ years of freelancing (plus I've learned from smarter people how they do it). It focuses on teaching processes and implementing systems - not cashing in some money-making scheme or having money fights on yachts (while you leave your laptop in the sand on the beach). Cheers!
Paul Jarvis
@xzarexhc thank you sir!

Best class and Slack group ever!!

Big fan of your work here, Paul :) P.S. Love the new design, great job!
Paul Jarvis
@meseali Thanks, I appreciate that! And I know you know how much goes into making a course now :)
Rich Seidel
The class is great and there is an added bonus of a Slack Team that is full of freelancers that are all helping each other. Any questions you have about running a business or specific coding or anything in between, you can finds the answers here. It's a great group of people to converse with! The course is set up in a way that you digest it at your own pace. Each lesson is full of useful information that will help you move your freelancing business along

@thebluestripe Thanks Rich! So glad to have you as a participant in the slack community!

It looks like a lot of people from the Creative Class Slack team showed up on Product Hunt today to upvote and comment on Creative Class, hey guys!

I purchased this product last year and highly recommend it. Paul makes concepts easy to grasp and his onboarding process (which I swiped) has made life and freelancing so much easier.

Hands down one of the BEST courses out there for freelancers and creatives! Plus nothing beats the awesome-sauce community on the slack channel, it's like insider access to some of the world's greatest designers/creatives and best of all even for the newbies like myself you continuously learn something from both @pjrvs himself and everyone in the community. Well worth it's weight in gold!
Paul Jarvis
@afroniquely Thanks Shae! So glad you participate in our slack community :)

This course is the real deal. I've been in it for a few months now, and even as a "product" person I'm still getting so much value out of it. I always liked Paul's unique approach to business and work - and this really is one of the best, most authentic courses out there.
Paul Jarvis
@mariahcoz Thanks Mariah! ✋💥
Amélie Lamont
Yeah! Paul’s work is legit and this course is incredibly insightful for freelancers (coming from someone who’s taken B-School and a slew of other courses). Glad to finally see this on here! :)
Paul Jarvis
@amelielamont Thanks Amélie!
Adam Pogorzelski
Paul, I found it really helpful not only for freelancers but also for guys like ourselves (means running small software shops). Thanks for that!
Paul Jarvis
@pogarson Thanks Adam! It's fun to see how many product folks have taken it and found value from it. Totally an unintended audience, but now there are quite a few of you as alumni.

Paul Jarvis is the truth. He and his peeps go above and beyond for our Office Hours and on the Slack channel. I'm completely blown away. Since signing up for Creative Class and joining the slack group my mindset has shifted on what value in a course and coach truly is. Paul Jarvis has set value bar so high, catch him if you can.
Paul Jarvis
@iheartfamelive Oh wow, thanks so much! I'm pleased you're part of the community and the course.
Tyler Swartz
I've been on Paul's weekly newsletter that includes snippets from his class. They have been very informative and inspirational. Looking forward to having the time one of these days to actually sign up and take the class.

Does it matter what industry you're coming from? And are there people to help you specifically pitch in that industry?
Paul Jarvis
@manda_auror Hi Amanda - there are freelancers ranging from designers, to directors to programmers, to writers, to coaches and more. Basically, if you work on projects for clients, it's a fit. As far as people helping you pitch a specific industry - the course is 100% self-paced - so there's no teachers or mentors specifically for every industry possible. It just wouldn't make sense at that price point (and the class is a one-person operation, i.e., me). Hope that helps!
