How I Would Learn Digital Marketing (If I Could Start Over) // This is me, telling you how I would learn digital marketing if I can start all over again, so you don’t have to waste your time and make the same mistakes. In this video, I’m going to share the top 5 things you need to embrace in order to build long-term success as a digital marketer, and what I would do differently learning digital marketing from zero. This isn’t a video about a fancy digital marketing qualification or getting another business degree, but rather it’s everything you need to know about from what I learned over the last decade. Hope you enjoy it and let me know if you have any questions or anything else to add in the comments!

So many have to work for their parents, travel abroad, new states and find love and just stay in partnership and never found that Job relied on sex and cooking, and family support.

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my KZitem channel 8 months ago about self development. Now I have 858 subs and > 500 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

@@lauriexwang Whoever you are, I don't know you personally but I can say that you're one of the non-judgmental and open-minded people who is not fixated on tangible or external factors in order to learn from someone like me. Just because someone doesn't have a piece of paper as a credential, doesn't mean that person is not entitled to share personal experiences with the hope & intention to inspire others. Keep up with whatever it is that you're doing to improve mankind or improving your life even to a slight degree each day. This is just one part of a bigger puzzle for creating my KZitem channel about holistic health. I literally could have died back when I was 14 years old due to major depression but here I am right now replying to you, a KZitemr, who's full of fulfillment and dedication to help others to be a better version of themselves. I ain't better than anyone else but my old self. That's all that really makes this KZitem thing more meaningful and enjoyable. Thanks so much for your support! I am hoping that you can join me with this endless personal development journey! :)

You mentioned joining a marketing firm as a junior agent to get started in the career, and even pointed out that this is how you got your start. I’m sure this is a great strategy, however I felt like the video was missing any advice on how to do this. I would love to know what firms are good for those without much qualification, or where I could find them. I would also have liked to know what advice you have for getting the job and rising in the ranks, especially because you did this yourself. I can’t wait to watch more of your videos!

All really great ideas and thanks so much for taking the time to share this with me! Noted and will add these to future episodes in this digital marketing career series on the channel! 🙌❤️ As a quick tip, I would say if you can secure an internship in a digital agency where you will get lots of experience with clients early on from various industries, it's a great place to get started. Getting promotions is a whole other topic that I would love to explore because it will involve a lot more detailed knowledge on building a network of champions within the company as well as demonstrating your accomplishments and skills to others in your team. Stay tuned my friend.

I’m interested in a career in digital marketing but is what your telling us that we don’t have to go the university/college route but by getting experience? How are we to know how to do our job without the applied theory?

Congrats on choosing a career in digital marketing! I love this area and it's constantly evolving, hence I think any standard university courses won't be able to give you the best latest knowledge in the area. I never studied digital marketing but I learned it all in my career and I think it's one of the best way to learn. I did go to university and studied economics so I think base knowledge like critical thinking and reasoning is helpful in any career. Hope this helps!

I've applied to so many jobs, but I feel that maybe my appearance is hindering my chances. Everyone is a vanilla, bland and cookie cutter, especially the males. I get judged at every interview Ive attended.

I went to school for Video production then ended up in graphics and printing which led me to Digital Marketing and web design and I love it. The best feeling is when you actually see your work help companies with their problems and increase their profits.

Hi, I spent last night binging your content! So good. You have a new subscriber! Question: Currently, I'm a healthcare content marketing writer and I'm interested in branching out more into digital marketing. Looking at the T-shaped image you had, I realized that I have an interest in data and analytics. Where can I get started learning about marketing data and analytics? Do I need to learn SQL?

Hey friend, 👋😀 I appreciate you and thank you for letting me know, comments from viewers like you always makes my day. Well done on choosing an interest in an area that you like in digital marketing. These are some great places to get started with: 1) The KISSmetrics Blog 2) The Moz Blog's Analytics Section 3) Google's Analytics Academy (you can also get certification for this one) I think SQL would be great to have and especially for you to build a strong foundation in this area.
