Here are 6 things you need to know before applying for a remote marketing job...🧵

 In 2015 I was offered a remote contract from a guy I’d met in an airport bar. 🍻

No joke. If my best friend wasn’t sitting beside me during that layover, I’m 100% convinced that everyone would think this was completely made up.
He’d overheard me talking about an SEO portfolio site that I’d recently made & that I was going to start looking for new side projects.

After a quick conversation and a week to think things over at the beach,🏖️ I flew home and took the offer. 😬
Working remotely in marketing has helped me grow personally and professionally in ways I never could at an office.

I’m grateful for everything I’ve learned and everyone who has helped me along the way.

I hope sharing a few tips I’ve picked up will help you on your journey. ✨
1) Make it real by making an action plan. Start by taking baby steps.

“A goal without a plan is just a wish.”

When you first sit down to frame out what you’re looking for, it’s important to set clear goals and make a solid plan.
Write everything out and give yourself deadlines. Once you do start working remotely you’ll be expected to perform your role independently. Start now.
Here’s a quick list of things you should include in your plan of action:

- Why you’re looking for your next role
- What you bring to the table
- Who you know (chances are you know more people than you realize)
2) Choose a skill that most businesses need.

Before you start sending out hundreds of resumes, you should already know which niche you want to work in & have a clear idea of your skill level in that area.
It goes without saying, but it’s a waste of everyone’s time (including yours) if you start applying for roles that you’re not qualified for.

If you’re just starting out, apply for entry-level roles.
Build a specific skill set that will help you market yourself.

For example, if you want to find a role in digital marketing, pick a stream to focus on (ie. SEO, copywriting, paid ads, SEM, etc.). Get really good at one thing that you can build upon.
If you don’t know what skill to pick, I recommend these niches because they’re needed by almost every business:

- Copywriting
- Email marketing
- Marketing admin
- Paid ads specialist: FB, PPC, Amazon, etc.
- Social media manager
3) Freelance gigs are your gateway to a full-time remote job.

When I originally gave notice at my former tech company to work remotely, I thought of freelance work as both intimidating and overwhelming.
However, I learned that freelance opportunities will give you a taste of what remote work looks like for you.

It will keep your skills sharp and push you to network. When you do find your dream marketing job, this experience will be mega points for you in an interview. 🎯
Skills you gain (& can later reference) from freelancing:

- Time management
- Tactics you used to stay focused
- How you tackled working independently
- Communication strategies you used to push things forward
- Why you did/didn't like working remotely
4) There’s no point in applying without a portfolio.

Successful Marketers all have one thing in common: initiative

Show 'em what you bring to the table.

5) Don’t waste your time with general job boards.

When you start looking for your first remote marketing job you have to know where to look.

Obviously, good places to start are with niche job boards & marketing communities (#MarketingTwitter)
Start building an idea of what your ideal remote marketing job will look like and pair that with your research about the companies you’re studying.

This will help you build a clearer path for what you’re looking for.

Make a vision.
6) Apply to jobs right when they’re posted. It’s a minor adjustment that makes a huge difference.

It will take time to find the right opportunity. Focus on results.
I don’t subscribe to the idea that the day of the week or particular hour you submit an application carries a lot of weight in getting the job.

However, it’s easy to get caught up in the glamour of a job ad without noticing that the author has been inactive for a month or two.
The age of the job ad will be a leading indicator of the response rate you receive.

Things move quickly. You should too.
When you put it all together, you should have a clear vision of what you offer and where you’re trying to go.
Recap on how to get a remote marketing job:

1) Make it real by making an action plan
2) Choose a marketing niche
3) Freelance gigs are your gateway
4) There’s no point in applying without a portfolio
5. Don’t waste your time with general job boards
6) Apply to jobs right away

Whether you like it or not.... you are ALWAYS selling

And many of you here have ambitions to make loads of cash, so you HAVE to understand this FUNDAMENTAL skill and get really good at sales

The following will help you

{THREAD} on How To Sell ANYTHING High Ticket (Properly)


Many of you know me for my fitness content or NRG or sarcasm primarily

But my good friends know I’ve been in the sort of “online business” sphere for a couple years.

Done a lot of different things, but the most natural of those- has been sales.

Got a lot of experience working for one of my mentors, would close his personal brand offers for him and managed that. And was the COO of the agency we built together from Aug ‘19-July ‘20, which is where I got GOOD.

Closed a few $30k deals on the phone/zoom there.

All that being said, I had to dial a lot back. Find focus. Do just a few things rather than being all over the place

So now, I’m focusing only on my fitness company, and the past few months have been building a small sales agency. (Along with a redacted project/lvrged ptnrships)

Anyway, let’s get into it. SALES-

First I’m going to say DO NOT use this if you are selling some bullshit. To actually sell requires belief in your product/offer, and I only do things with offers I genuinely have full confidence in.

This also gives you leverage...

To people who are under the impression that you can get rich quickly by working on an app, here are the stats for https://t.co/az8F12pf02

📈 ~12000 vistis
☑️ 109 transactions
💰 353€ profit (285 after tax)

I have spent 1.5 months on this app. You can make more $ in 2 days.

🤷‍♂️


I'm still happy that I launched a paid app bcs it involved extra work:

- backend for processing payments (+ permissions, webhooks, etc)
- integration with payment processor
- UI for license activation in Electron
- machine activation limit
- autoupdates
- mailgun emails

etc.

These things seemed super scary at first. I always thought it was way too much work and something would break. But I'm glad I persisted. So far the only problem I have is that mailgun is not delivering the license keys to certain domains like https://t.co/6Bqn0FUYXo etc. 👌

omg I just realized that me . com is an Apple domain, of course something wouldn't work with these dicks

1. Let's talk about the effects of #climatechange on the world's forests, with a focus on the northwest of Canada. This is also about electoral #greenwash, and my duty as public servant and right as private Canadian citizen to speak freely about what I know.

2. Why am I compelled to speak? How am I free to speak? The answer is in the federal Values and Ethics Code of Coduct (VECC).


3. It can be career-limiting to criticize government policy when you work for government. Duty of Loyalty is very, very important. However, as VECC makes clear, it is not absolute. In fact SCoC has ruled twice in favour of citizen free speech as a higher ideal. In 1985 and 2001.

4. I am therefore perfectly comfortable showing you the scary things that are happening in the North under a warming climate. A failure to meet global GHG emissions targets is hurting Canada's forests in a way we used to think wouldn't happen for decades.

5. Warming temperatures and rising [CO2] could, in theory, help green the planet with more vigorous tree growth. But that's not what's happening. Don't believe the #greenwash. The positive effects are over and it is warm enough that we are now starting the into the negative.

दधीचि ऋषि को मनाही थी कि वह अश्विनी कुमारों को किसी भी अवस्था में ब्रह्मविद्या का उपदेश नहीं दें। ये आदेश देवराज इन्द्र का था।वह नहीं चाहते थे कि उनके सिंहासन को प्रत्यक्ष या परोक्ष रुप से कोई भी खतरा हो।मगर जब अश्विनी कुमारों ने सहृदय प्रार्थना की तो महर्षि सहर्ष मान गए।


और उन्होनें ब्रह्मविद्या का ज्ञान अश्विनि कुमारों को दे दिया। गुप्तचरों के माध्यम से जब खबर इन्द्रदेव तक पहुंची तो वे क्रोध में खड़ग ले कर गए और महर्षि दधीचि का सर धड़ से अलग कर दिया।मगर अश्विनी कुमार भी कहां चुप बैठने वाले थे।उन्होने तुरंत एक अश्व का सिर महर्षि के धड़ पे...


...प्रत्यारोपित कर उन्हें जीवित रख लिया।उस दिन के पश्चात महर्षि दधीचि अश्वशिरा भी कहलाए जाने लगे।अब आगे सुनिये की किस प्रकार महर्षि दधीचि का सर काटने वाले इन्द्र कैसे अपनी रक्षा हेतु उनके आगे गिड़गिड़ाए ।

एक बार देवराज इन्द्र अपनी सभा में बैठे थे, तो उन्हे खुद पर अभिमान हो आया।


वे सोचने लगे कि हम तीनों लोकों के स्वामी हैं। ब्राह्मण हमें यज्ञ में आहुति देते हैं और हमारी उपासना करते हैं। फिर हम सामान्य ब्राह्मण बृहस्पति से क्यों डरते हैं ?उनके आने पर क्यों खड़े हो जाते हैं?वे तो हमारी जीविका से पलते हैं। देवर्षि बृहस्पति देवताओं के गुरु थे।

अभिमान के कारण ऋषि बृहस्पति के पधारने पर न तो इन्द्र ही खड़े हुए और न ही अन्य देवों को खड़े होने दिया।देवगुरु बृहस्पति इन्द्र का ये कठोर दुर्व्यवहार देख कर चुप चाप वहां से लौट गए।कुछ देर पश्चात जब देवराज का मद उतरा तो उन्हे अपनी गलती का एहसास हुआ।

WHY BABUR NEVER TRIED TO ATTACK SRI KRISHNADEVARAYA ?

A🧵u must read

It is very well known that Babur considered Krishna Dev Raya as the strongest ruler of the entire subcontinent, and Vijayanagar empire the strongest during that time in India.

1/10


The Vijayanagar empire reached its peak during 1509-1529 around the reign of Krishna Dev Raya.

Vijayanagar’s famed elephant brigade 👇

2/10


At his command there were over 50000 elite troops with a regiment of Portuguese gunners and 3200 cavalry with 600 elephants.

3/10

Along with that more than four hundred thousand ( four lakh) peasant levies and irregular military made this empire one of the largest in all of South Asia.

A typical Vijayanagar levie soldier 👇

4/10


During Baburs invasion, Krishna Dev Raya ruled supreme in all of deccan.

In fact, in an all our brawl, Krisha Dev Raya will beat Babur fair and square.

Babur could muster at max 50000 troops with 50 canons.

While Krishna Dev Raya had these numbers in Hampi alone
