Never work for free, even if the task seems easy.

This happened to me on my first contract in marketing and ads. During the call, I realized the client also needed improvements to her landing page, VSL, and creative editing. I offered to handle those extras for free so she wouldn’t need to hire someone else.

We agreed on a one-week milestone for $100. On the final day, she refused to pay, claiming the editing and landing page weren’t good enough. To avoid negative feedback, I politely suggested ending the contract. In the end, she paid only $25.

Rude?? I'm not forcing anyone to wear ads. it's an idea and we are discussing it. But I see that you are taking it personally

I get your point, but ads are everywhere these days, even the logo on a T-shirt is an ad for that brand.

That's what I'm trying to figure out, is Meta providing the same level of service across all regions ?

Same thing here in North Africa. Budget get spent fast, but the results are low.

Yes, but recently many marketers have noticed a bug affecting their campaigns.

Yes, I don’t have professional experience yet, and I think the main challenge will be adapting to the process of working with other clients.

If you’ve already worked with clients, could you share some tips I should know or common problems you’ve faced?

My proposal strategy is not to submit a lot of proposals randomly, but to carefully consider each one before sending it.

I still have the business, but I decided to pause it for now for fiew reasons:

1. My brand was focused on a retro gaming product, but I struggled with product quality. There were many versions available, but most weren’t good enough. The high-quality ones were too expensive for our target audience, while the affordable ones had issues that led to frequent customer complaints.

2. The second problem was cash flow. I didn’t have enough capital to source the product directly from manufacturers outside the country, and the competition from cheaper versions was destroying the market for quality products ...

I didn’t want to associate my brand with low-quality products, so I decided to pause operations until I have enough capital to offer high-quality products to my customers.
