Navigating Career Changes
Making significant career changes can be daunting, especially during uncertain times. Quitting a job at the end of 2020 prompted a journey into content creation, which initially showed promise but later faced challenges, particularly financially. After experiencing unsatisfactory outcomes in the latter half of 2021, the decision to join a friend's agency provided a valuable learning opportunity in sales, marketing, and management. This transition allowed for growth in professional capabilities and a shift in mindset regarding client work, moving from charging a few thousand dollars to valuing work at a much higher rate.
