    It's interesting to note they have pivoted. Go to dropbox.com and the text is talking about how it is a tool for creatives. Not a cloud storage app, but a tool for "creative collaboration." The images and text specifically call out Photoshop and Sketch, and show art and design work.

    Did they find out most of their customers are designers? Or did they do research that uncovered an untapped niche?

      i think it's more likely they defaulted to what they use it for. i think it was a mistake on their part.

        Yeah, my friend the Realtor doesn't care about Photoshop and Sketch. If she visited this landing page, she'd leave immediately because she wouldn't get it. I think it's a major mistake.

      Wouldn't be shocked if design professionals were their "whale" customers. PSD files are THICCC.
