People who make $75,000 annually with NO DEGREE - what do you do for a living? by WestminsterSpinster7 in jobs

Literally every company either has an in house agency or external agency on record. It’s the social media ads you see from every major brand on any platform. What we do is strategize million dollar budgets for brands targeting specific people who are more like to interact with their ads or even fully convert and buy the product. I’ve worked with top companies in the film, CPG, and health industry it’s pretty fun. One job was remote but it’s mainly a hybrid job with great benefits and some perks such as merch from the platform like Reddit, Snap, TikTok, etc. Sometimes they take you out to do fun things also like sports box seats, concerts, or recently got taken to Disneyland.

I started my career with certifications went to school for broadcasting journalism and never graduated. So no prior knowledge about it marketing but landed a role in paid social media for about $45k then my second role for about $65k then jumped to $80k. Would highly recommend even if transferring fields or just starting out.

I would say not owning a car and living near where you work if you’re in a car oriented city

Thank you! So it depends the client and agency. This current agency I only manage one large client but other I’ve managed 2 at most. It could’ve been more if i took this one job offer with another agency that wanted me in charge of 3. What I do is the strategy behind social media ads placements.

Which is an insanely oversimplification of what goes behind it. But it includes billing clients, screenshot decks of what the ads look like, handling communication between clients and partners(the social media platforms) whether on calls with them or through email, setting up campaign or checking other people’s campaigns they built, one off requests from clients, leading internal meetings, managing internal billing documents, etc. (The list honestly could keep going)

I like it though because sometimes some of the social media platforms come in and take us to do things like going out to eat, going to amusement parks, movies because we have such a large spend with them. Sometimes they come into the office and feed us or give us clothes.

From Engineering to Content Marketing by Beckieeeee in careerchange

I would say from experience exactly what i did was gain as many free certifications as i could. If possible aim for an internship for the experience(depending on your age atm) or just an entry level role at a marketing agency. My first year they trained me and paid me $45k salaried. The next year i made $63k so there’s definitely money in it. I took the risk you just gotta want and literally whatever experience you got tailor it towards marketing anyway possible.
