  1. How did you get your first entry level job in marketing and what are the things we need to know before applying to marketing?

  2. Hey there! I really love your energy and it gives me hope. πŸ˜€ I work as a Digital Marketing Specialist for 4 months now. The thing is, I never did marketing before, I have a BA in Graphic Design and I had to start from zero with all the information and the habits I need to keep up with the work.

    I have a question for you: where is it cool to start with? KPI notions, theory and stuff like that? Or practicing until it gets better? (This is what I’m doing right now lol)

    I sometimes feel like a fraud, I’m also shy and when I have to talk to the Copywriter, it’s complicated for me. Teach me, master!! πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

    1. Hey Eva! Congrats on the marketing role, it seems like you’ve decided to step into growth. I’m excited to see what the future holds for you.

      I’d recommend you practice until you get better. On top of that, research while you do. For example, in your job you might be asked to create a landing page, but instead of simply creating one off the top of your head, research what makes a really good landing page and spend about an hour doing so before actually creating one.

      This will do two things:

      – You’ll learn the theory but practically apply it so you don’t forget
      – You’ll be able to keep up with the slang and knowledge of other reputable marketers

      This is something I’m still doing now to this day and it’s been helping me a lot.

      So again, research while you do.

    1. Depends, my last full time job paid me 70k / year and my freelancing has hit the highest to almost 7k / month.

    2. @Alif Huq that’s great man! Congratulations on that. I hope you keep prospering and keep increasing your income exponentially!

  3. Bro why the f**k do you have to show us , you are brushing your teeth, eating, shitting, while in the life of digital marketing manager ?
    Even a homeless person does it. πŸ˜’πŸ˜’πŸ˜’πŸ˜‘

  4. Hahaha you seem such a lovely guy and talking about your mum and your lunch made me laugh so hard πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
    it is same with me I am actually 10 years older than you and living of course on my own

    greetings from Slovenia big supporter here I’ve just subscribed but I have been following you for awhile and your content thank you so much!!πŸ₯³πŸ₯³πŸ€©

  5. Great video, I’m studying digital media and I’m considering the google courses, do you think it is enough to get a job?

    1. It’s a good start but not enough. I’d recommend you learn practical digital marketing skills via free work, freelancing, or creating your own projects. From there, create a portfolio and show it to employers. This will make you much more employable.

  6. Hi man, what advice would you give me im currently doing my apprenticeship on digital marketing, I wanted to ask you if you got any tips for me starting and is it good to have a lot of certificates for a job interview or not? Because I have 20 focused on digital marketing.

    1. What I’ll tell you is prioritize real life experience and keep track of all those projects in a portfolio. Then use that portfolio during job interviews to sell yourself. That’s more likely to get you a job than collecting certifications.

  7. What is the scope of digital marketing in London or in entire UK?
    And how to apply in one of the top companies as Digital marketer as I am from India

  8. Almost done with my BA in business Administration. Planning on going in digital marketing. Can you live comfortably on that salary?
