Looking back at my career journey, it’s been anything but easy. I started with a passion for writing, but little did I know how much work, dedication, and persistence it would take to get where I am today. Early on, I faced countless challenges – from navigating the competitive world of freelancing to learning the ins and outs of SEO, technical writing, and content strategies. There were times I doubted myself, but I never gave up. I kept pushing, taking on small projects and constantly improving my skills. Slowly, those smaller opportunities turned into bigger ones. I began working on high-impact projects for clients across various industries, and with each new challenge, I grew both personally and professionally. Today, I’m proud to say that I’ve successfully completed numerous complex projects that not only met but exceeded client expectations. But the journey doesn’t stop here – I’m constantly seeking ways to evolve and grow in this ever-changing field. If my story resonates with you, or if you’re looking for someone who understands the importance of hard work and perseverance in content creation and strategy, feel free to reach out or send me a DM. I’d love to see how I can help with your next big project! #careerjourney #resilience #contentcreator #SEOexpert #technicalwriter #growthmindset #freelancejourney #HR #recruiters #businessgrowth #opportunities #openforwork #successstory

This is why most grads I know are unemployed… 7 years of experience? Really? I am currently working 5 different freelance roles varying across Social Media Management, Community Management, Digital Marketing and Content Creation yet I still recieve rejection emails from full time roles on a daily What am I actually doing wrong because I clearly have the experience? And I know, I’m not the only one going through this… #digitialmarketing #unemployedgraduates #graduatejobs #gradschemes #socialmediaroles #socialmedia #contentcreation

Good Afternoon everyone, how is everyone doing today? I've realized that I haven't posted on here in some time so I felt compelled to share some things that have been going on recently. For starters, as you know I am still searching for a social media/marketing role. Which of course I haven't had luck with in the past year. I have tried to continue to reach out and network but it seems that I always hit some sort of dead end. It has been discouraging for me as someone who has been graduated for a full year and a half now and hasn't found any promising career opportunities. I have tried doing some freelance things here and there but I think I've come to realize that freelance/entrepreneurship is not my path. Which I feel like is something a lot of people can admit to. Not everyone has the compacity nor the patience to become a entrepreneur or a freelancer. And I'm glad that I was able to figure that out about myself. However, trying to apply for a full-time position has not been a pleasant experience. Between going into multiple interviews, and sending in countless resumes and cover letters. On top of that having to almost over-explain why I'm qualified to do the work. But still being told that I'm not what the organization or company is looking for can become very tiring. While I knew getting a job wouldn't be easy. It has become more and more apparent to me that there is something inherently wrong with the way some of these companies are conducting their hiring process. A lot of what I have just explained has made me sad and upset at myself and a lot of it has made me almost feel like I haven't done enough to prove to people that I am capable of handling marketing and social media work. But the problem isn't me. The problem is the way a lot of these companies are conducting their processes. I won't lie and say that haven't been going through some serious depression because of this. Plus the recent passing of my uncle who raised me didn't help matters either. It is not a place where I thought I would be at age 25. I've always had lifelong dreams of making an impact and working in the entertainment, film, and television space. Not only that but creating content that people can relate to and connect with and could put a smile on people's faces or even give them an escape. But it almost seems as if those dreams are untouchable now because of not only my circumstances. But also because of the state of our world today as well. I know that eventually there will be light at the end of the tunnel but it's just really hard to see that light right now. But I do say all of this to say, try enjoying your life for what it is now. Even if it's not the life you expected for yourself. I hope that I can use the time I have now to connect with others who are working in marketing or entertainment so I can at least get my foot in the door. So if you know anyone who's looking for someone with social media and video production knowledge let me know!

Still just replying 'Interested!' to LinkedIn freelance gigs? You're doing it wrong. Here's an honest truth: If your response to a 'Looking for freelance copywriters' post doesn't include at least one of these, you're doing it wrong: Your reply should always: ? Showcase relevant experience ? Provide specific samples ? Highlight your unique value proposition Storytime: Early in my freelance career, I was that person. The one who'd quickly comment 'Interested! Check DM' on every job post. I thought I was being proactive. Spoiler alert: I wasn't. I asked myself: How many of these 'interested' comments actually led to gigs? That's when I learned the hard truth: Generic responses don't land jobs. Tailored ones do. So I changed my approach. Every application, I made sure to address the client's specific needs. And you know what? My response rate skyrocketed. Here's what I realized: ? "Showcasing relevant experience" proves I'm qualified ? "Providing specific samples" shows I can do the job ? "Highlighting unique value" sets me apart from the crowd Now, I know what some of you are thinking: "But what if I don't have direct experience in their industry?" Here's what: That's your chance to show how your skills transfer. Get creative! Remember, in a sea of 'interested' comments, specificity wins every time. PS - Found this helpful?

Why an Introduction Video Can Be More Powerful Than a Resume : When applying for freelance opportunities, especially in creative fields like content creation and marketing, a resume alone sometimes doesn't cut it.

For roles like content and UGC creation, video editing, and marketing, this makes all the difference. It's a direct way to showcase your abilities, your professionalism, and your dedication to delivering results.

Do you find self-critique is easier than self-belief? Things you probably didn’t know about me… ?? After 9 years in account roles, I returned to UT Austin and earned my B.S. in Public Relations in 2021—while working full-time. ?? When I went back to uni, I shared that I was working in customer experience and my old professor told me “what a waste” ?? because I am too talented as a writer ????♀? It’s taken me a long time, but I am no longer playing it safe in account-based roles. I want to stay focused on my passion and that’s in marketing. ?? You may be surprised to know that for over 3 years, I’ve also maintained a personal brand focused on sexual health education, producing content daily on my personal social media accounts. ?? While I may not highlight this personal brand on my resume, those who follow me know it’s a part of my story and skill set. I don’t think it would help or be taken the right way if I said, “I do spicy positive content for AFAB folx!” ????♀? So…. I need to build experience that is resume friendly. How?

#Upwork_Profile_Optmization_Pro_Tips I have spent more than $100k as a client on Upwork. Here are some tips for you guys on how to improve your Upwork profiles : 1. Get good pictures , there a literally freelancers with bathroom selfies you can’t expect to be hired this way 2. Focus on one skill , not 1000 - I see so many people write in their Descriptions: Designer, Developer, Copywriter , SEO expert. There is no chance that you’re an expert in everything at once 3. I don’t care about your University degree and diplomas 4. I don’t care about your years of experience 5. I do care about your relevant portfolio examples 6. I do care can you actually prove these examples are yours 7. If you have a wall of text in your description 99.99% will never read it 8. Keep the text short and specific 9. Don’t link your website Upwork can ban you for that 10. Don’t overuse emojis you’re not on TikTok I hope that helps and you can improve your profiles and get hired more. Good luck ?? #Copied #upwork #profile #optmizations
