Get Promoted in Your Next Review 👉 With Business-Backed Proof They Can't Ignore

The same 3-step system that helped Lisa (Sr UX Designer at a Fortune 500 fintech) get promoted with a 28% raise. No corporate politics. No waiting to be "noticed." Just documented proof of your business impact.

Your work deserves more than "Great job." It deserves a promotion.

This Brag Sheet Career Transformation System helps you turn a year's worth of quiet wins into undeniable, business-backed evidence of your value.

⏰ In just 15 minutes a month, you'll build a running record of quantifiable results and turn vague "did great work" notes into promotion ammunition.

Performance reviews are happening right now. Either start documenting now, or scramble to remember everything you did last February when it's too late.

Real results from designers who used this system

Lisa, Senior Designer at Fortune 500 Fintech → Staff Designer (promoted within 6 weeks with a 28% raise)

Marcus, UX Researcher at SaaS Startup → Senior Researcher (improved research implementation rate from 40% to 75%, reframed work in business terms, finally recognized for strategic influence)

Priya, IC Designer at Healthcare Tech → Design Manager (documented leadership impact before having the title, then used her Brag Sheet to secure a formal team lead role and a 35% raise)

Alex, Career Switcher in E-commerce → (used this framework to connect marketing + UX results and was promoted to Senior UX Designer in 2.5 years, with a salary on par with designers from traditional UX backgrounds)

The problem it solves

You've done the work, but you can't prove it when it matters most.

Most UXers go into reviews with:

• Vague memories instead of measurable examples
• Great results buried in Slack threads and Figma comments
• No structure for connecting design work to business outcomes

That's how strong performers get stuck while others move ahead.

Your manager can't remember everything you did. HR doesn't see your Slack wins. Leadership doesn't know your project prevented a $2M mistake.

Without a system to capture and translate your work into business impact, you're invisible when promotion decisions get made.

The Solution → a lightweight, repeatable system to document your work, AND transform It into promotion-proof evidence

The Brag Sheet System helps you:

✅ Capture achievements monthly (so you never forget them)

✅ Quantify their business impact in metrics leaders actually understand

✅ Package your results into a clear, persuasive story during reviews or interviews

This is the same 3-step framework used by my UX career mentees at Netflix, Capital One, and JPMorgan Chase to make their value visible and undeniable.

What you'll get inside

✅ Monthly Documentation Template → Capture every win in 15 minutes a month

✅ Impact Quantification Framework → Turn design outcomes into metrics executives care about (revenue, efficiency, risk reduction)

✅ Achievement Categorization System → Align your wins with your company's actual promotion criteria

✅ Performance Review Conversation Scripts → Speak about your value with confidence, not awkwardness

✅ Promotion Conversation Templates & Email Scripts → Know exactly what to say and when to say it

✅ 30-Day Implementation Plan → Build this into your workflow before next quarter starts

✅ 4 Real Promotion Case Studies → See how other designers used this exact system to get promoted

Why it works

Because promotions aren't about working harder. They're about making your IMPACT VISIBLE and your value EASY TO ADVOCATE FOR.

The BRAG SHEET FORMULA: Achievement + Impact + Business Value = Promotion Ammunition



When you speak this language, decision-makers can finally see your contribution AND justify your promotion to their boss.

This is for you if...

✓ You're a Senior and "Super Senior" UXer heading into a year-end performance review (or a job interview)

✓ You're "the reliable one" but not yet recognized as "strategic"

✓ You're tired of seeing less qualified colleagues move ahead while you stay stuck

✓ You're an aspiring UX Leader, Researcher or Content Strategist preparing for promotion in 2026

Common Questions

"I don't have time for this."

That's exactly why you need it. 15 minutes a month now saves you from spending 10+ hours scrambling through old files before your review. The system is designed for busy UXers and aspiring leaders.

"What if I haven't done anything promotion-worthy?"

You have. You just don't know how to frame it yet. This framework shows you what you've ALREADY done that counts as strategic impact, you're just not documenting or positioning it correctly.

"My company doesn't do formal performance reviews."

This system works for self-advocacy in 1:1s, internal mobility conversations, job searches, and salary negotiations. Anywhere you need to prove your value, this gives you the language and proof.

"Can't I just keep a running doc myself?"

You could. But most people don't, or they capture the wrong things. This system tells you WHAT to document, HOW to quantify it, and HOW to talk about it when it matters. That's the difference between a notes file and promotion ammunition.

Here's what happens without this system

• You walk into your review with vague examples so your manager says "I need more concrete data"
• Someone with less experience but better prepared gets the role you wanted
• You spend hours the night before your 1:1 trying to remember what you shipped in Q2
• Your annual review comes back as "meets expectations" because you couldn't articulate your strategic impact
• You watch another promotion cycle pass while you stay stuck at the same level

The cost of not documenting your work is another year at the same title and salary.
