New to Marketing
I'm very pleased to join the warriors in here, even though I'm not a warrior myself(at least at the moment)
So I've been working in marketing for 4 months and I left my job nearly 40 days ago, because I wasn't learning shit.
For the past month I've been trying to learn on myself, I bought some courses on Udemy and I'm building my first website with wordpress, I have also learned a bit about Google and Fb ads, as well as making some posts with Canva for ''organic marketing''.
I don't know how I ended up in the marketing field tbh, I've never even considered it to be a job before, but surprisingly enough, it turns out to be the job that I'm liking the most, out of all other jobs that I've tried before(I'm 23 btw, already feeling old).
I feel like I found what I want to do in life, but at the same time I'm so confused... SEO, Social media, Ads, Website, Affiliate, E-commerce, Copywriting, and on and on. It's so confusing... And in the middle of all this, I open youtube and see people saying they make 15K a month with dropshipping, or 200 per hour with social media or I don't know what the hell else they do.
Personally I like to write, but at the same time I feel like e-commerce and other fields of marketing offer far more opportunities for financial freedom.
Besides that I can't picture myself as someone who is just writing copy all day, if that was the case, I would have become a writer and write my own book titled ''How to fail at everything in life''. I want to get a bit challenged, I like to stretch my brain and my imagination beyond selecting the right words to ''Blow my client's mind in these 5 little steps'' .(no offense to anyone).. I need to create, and bring new ideas, but most importantly I need money, but I currently lack the skills to do so.
If you were to put yourself in my shoes and start from scratch, What would you suggest me to do?
Ps. It would be better if you also took into consideration the fact that in my country people have no idea what digital marketing is, and there is little demand for digital marketing. Also that I'm also in university and half of my day is spent there. Also that I also spend 2 hours at the gym, Also the pressure for my family to start a job and forget about this.
I would really appreciate an answer and I would also very well understand why anyone wouldn't bother looking at the mess I wrote in here.
Thank you!
