I love my current job.
I get to exercise my marketing chops and provide value to the company.
Some of the things I get to do at my job is: SEO, PPC, Video, Brochures, Tradeshows, Content, Social Media, PR , Email, marketing automation, and other marketing tools.
I am going to write some ideas about each of these areas in subsequent posts, but for now, I want to implore you to get skilled.
I believe we all have a toolbelt of sorts, and we need to add as many tools as possible into it.
I have definitely heard of and agree with the mantra ‘jack of all trades is master of none’, but if you are starting your career, I recommend collecting as many skills and tools as possible – be general and go wide.
As you gain experiences and build up your portfolio of wins and successes (and learn from your failures and missteps), then you can start to narrow your focus and specialized into an area that you can hone and build out your next career chapter with.
