Marketers, I need your help on a blog idea.
A quick blurb about me, my name is Robin and I'm a digital marketer with four years of experience, half of those years (and going) are in B2B. I've spent most of my marketing career at a consulting agency as an account manager.
My blog idea was sparked by a conversation I had with a colleague a few weeks ago. Both him and I came from different career backgrounds then somehow ended up in marketing (a journey in itself). We talked about how we knew so little back then and cringe at the thought of the strategies we were pitching to clients at that time. Despite that, we commended each other because we hustled hard to get to where we are now, senior-level in our respective departments.
I know there are many stories out there that inspire, humor, and relate to marketers in agencies and internal teams alike. I would love to create a community blog that shares stories of marketers of different backgrounds about their journey, their day-to-day, and challenges in marketing. Hell, I love memes, but I don't see enough dank marketing memes to relate to and share a few laughs with my coworkers. An anti-marketing blog if you will.
Here's a topic I'm working on as sample content:
"I lost 75% of my client portfolio in less than a year, I should have been fired."
As far as monetizing goes, I don't really care to know how right now. I just want to know if my fellow marketers would be down to share their stories if I do all the grunt work of setting this all up.
Thoughts? Happy to answer any questions. Thanks in advance!
