So you want to become a marketer.

But not just any marketer. You want to become an epic marketer - a true thought leader crafting and promoting killer content with the data to prove it. But how?

You just earned your degree and you’re at the crossroads of what to do with life. Do you take the first job you’re offered? Do you even know what types of jobs you want to apply for? The possibilities and opportunities are endless and it’s up to you to take action to kick start your career.

Imagine you just landed your first digital marketing gig - now it’s time to rock that job and prove your worth as an indispensable marketer. What’s the trick? The answer may surprise you.

The time in your life when you need career coaching services most is the time when you likely can’t afford a coach, at least not a quality coach. After all, who has $100+ to spend on a single coaching session right after graduating college? And where would you find a coach with digital marketing expertise? Is that even possible?

An Olympic athlete has tons of raw talent, drive, and ambition, but there is one additional thing an athlete needs to achieve Olympic glory—an amazing coach. You also can’t launch a successful career alone - no one does. As a recent grad it may be tempting to think you’ve got life, work, and everything else wired. But you don’t know everything (again, no one does!) - you need a coach just like Olympic athletes do.

Criticism - what no one wants to hear, but every digital marketer has endured. Let’s face it, criticism can be hurtful and often causes us to question our work. But what if there was a way to turn criticism into a helpful tool for self-improvement? What if those unsolicited negative remarks became career catalysts and sparked growth? The marketers willing to channel the sparks of criticism by following these 6 actions will be rewarded with tremendous career development.

Criticism can scar our work or it can ignite our growth. The choice is ours. (Tweet this)
