At first I started with SMMA 3.5 years ago when Iman Gadzhi was viral with his puppet master BS. I had no experience, not to mention a uni degree in marketing or anything like that, so I just started doing free work.
Lost some clients, slept badly, constantly stressed and ashamed.
I kept telling myself if I got better then I’d succeed. So I constantly tried to make better ads, better landing pages, more attractive lead magnets, etc.
Somewhere in all that mess I developed pretty strong technical skills. Not for the flashy creative stuff. But the systems, the funnels, the data tracking. The boring parts. Now that’s all I focus on.
For example, I built a funnel for a CA construction company that sells these mini Chinese backyard houses (ADUs) that homeowners can rent out. They’re around $250k per unit and they are selling 5 per month thanks to me. My 5% commission on that is not bad.
I guess ask me anything, just wanted to share my story as an inspiration. #inspiration source
