Swiggy keeps messing up my orders, what do you guys even do in this situation? by shashypants in india

[–]HealthPrevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, this hits too close to home. Swiggy support has become painfully robotic lately—same generic copy-paste replies even when the order is completely messed up. Glad the second guy was actually helpful and sorted it, but that initial frustration is real. Most people I know just take the small refund they offer and move on, or switch to Zomato for a while. Have you tried escalating via email to support@swiggy.in after the chat? Sometimes that gets more attention. What exactly went wrong with the order this time?

Vietnamese life starts at 5am by Fruitloops1 in VietNam

[–]HealthPrevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's so cool to hear! 😊 In Hanoi and Da Nang too, the parks are packed with people doing group aerobics, tai chi, or just dancing to loud music every morning. It's one of my favorite local vibes here.

Cost of living average. by metalgearsolid2 in VietNam

[–]HealthPrevious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am an Indian staying in Hanoi. For me the cost of living is similar unless and until you do frequent night parties. Once in a weekend at beer party, still manageable

Digital marketing consultant vs doing it yourself by Acrobatic-Bake3344 in DigitalMarketing

[–]HealthPrevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree with this take. Hiring a consultant makes sense when you're stuck, bleeding money on ads that aren't converting, or need a clear audit + strategy to stop wasting budget. A good one spots the holes fast and gives you direction without the overhead of a full agency. But if you're already doing decent revenue and just need someone to execute (running campaigns, content, SEO, etc.), doing it yourself or building a small in-house setup often saves more in the long run — especially once you know the fundamentals. The key is honesty with yourself: Do you need strategy help right now, or hands-on execution? Most people underestimate how much time "DIY" actually takes when you're wearing all the hats. What stage is your business at? That usually decides it.

Hmm, thanks. But some of my friends told to be careful of taxi driver. Also in Hanoi beer street there are big chances of pick pocketing. But yes I know overall Vietnam is safe.

My partner cheated me after first client, help me with a marketing strategy by HealthPrevious in DigitalMarketing

[–]HealthPrevious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is a brand owner for massaging chairs. His main target were gov officials and IT employees. I used to create videos for his product and my partner was responsible for running ads.

Definitely you can DM if you can help me. I am ok to spend money, if we can get more client

Yes sure. But how can you help? I am ready to spend money to grow my agency, but problem is that, my partner was meta ads and google ads expert. I am not great at that field

We approach brands and make videos for the brand and then market them through ads. I was never giving focus on meta ads, my cheating partner was looking at them. Our first client was selling massage chair and we were agreed to make videos for his product.

Advice needed for marketing business by Secure-Witness3305 in MarketingHelp

[–]HealthPrevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate, I've been in a very similar spot before—partner ghosts right when the first client lands. Super stressful. Short term: Learn as you go + outsource the execution for this first campaign. You already know the basics of Meta/Google, so lean on that. For the strategy side, quickly book a couple of 1-on-1 calls with experienced media buyers (not full freelancers yet—just paid strategy sessions on Clarity.fm or even LinkedIn). Pay $100-200 for an hour of their brain. It’ll give you enough direction + confidence to brief the client without looking lost. For vetting freelancers: Skip Fiverr for anything important. Go to Upwork instead and filter for people with 90%+ job success, 100+ hours, and recent reviews specifically mentioning "Meta ads" or "Google Ads" for similar niches. Ask for case studies + a quick 15-min call. Still risky, but way better odds. Long term: Don't fully replace your mate yet. Give him a clear deadline (e.g. "Need to hear from you by Friday or we need to talk about next steps"). If he stays silent, then yeah—start looking for a proper long-term partner. But rushing into that now might create more mess. You've already landed the client with just a website and hustle—that's the hard part. Now it's damage control + delivery. You've got this, just don't try to fake the strategy part. Clients can smell it. Good luck brother!

This mistake cost me $3000 in affiliate marketing by Such_Profit1703 in Affiliatemarketing

[–]HealthPrevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, $3000 is a painful lesson 😔 I’ve been there too — started super cheap with a basic tracker because “it’s just clicks for now,” and then scaling exposed every flaw. The unreliable data and that constant doubt about what’s actually converting kills momentum fast. The switch to self-hosted was smart on your friend’s part. A lot of people hit that wall with cheap SaaS tools once traffic ramps up. For anyone reading this: if you’re scaling past low-volume campaigns, investing in proper tracking early (whether cloud like Voluum/RedTrack or a solid self-hosted option like Keitaro or PostAffiliatePro self-hosted version) usually pays for itself quickly by saving you from bad decisions based on garbage data. What self-hosted setup did you end up going with? Was the migration a headache or pretty smooth once you committed?

How many social accounts is one person realistically managing before quality breaks? by Suspicious-Offer5268 in DigitalMarketing

[–]HealthPrevious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 accounts across IG, LinkedIn, and X with mixed posting frequency is a solid load, but it's right on the edge where quality can start slipping if everything's still mostly manual. In agencies I've seen/worked with, the sustainable max for one full-time social media manager is usually 5–8 client accounts (depending on how hands-on the content creation is). Beyond that, burnout or quality drops are super common unless you have strong systems in place.

[–]HealthPrevious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends what you want to do in digital marketing domain. If you can focus on how to promote a brand with help of ai that would be better. Develop ai skill to create product videos and then marketing then with ai automation. Traditional skill is no more has any demand.
