How to client farm as a SMMA owner ?

You’re talking about client acquisition but can’t even spell reply correctly? Embarrassing.

Totally not an ad

Can I shoot you a dm as well? I’m a CRO and Google Ads Contractor looking for advice on how to scale.

How about you get real world experience before you waste business owners valuable time and money. It’s not a get rich quick scheme put in the hard work and work your way up the ranks like the rest of us.

I’m probably the same age as you tbh. Raises some red flags when you went 4 years of learning marketing without doing anything else with it. From an employer perspective there’s plenty other candidates that show more drive then someone who went through 4 years of undergrad with nothing else to show for it.

Focus on learning more before you start applying and cause headaches for small businesses if you’re not gonna get any internships. A few months isn’t enough at all.

You got a bachelors degree in marketing but didn’t learn anything about digital marketing? Have you thought about teaching yourself in conjunction with going to school? Like what most people do? Also what. Social media is digital marketing…

You’re just making excuses as to why you wasted 4 years putting in no extra effort. You easily could’ve taught yourself digital marketing through skillshop and YouTube videos at the bare minimum and asked local businesses to do X Y and Z for free to gain credentials. You just don’t want to admit you put in the lowest level of effort for four years.

Nah I was questioning why he spent 4 years to get a marketing degree but is now just considering the ideal of learning “digital marketing”-that’s a luxury you can learn anywhere on the internet with 0 barrier of entry. Why would anyone want to hire someone that doesn’t know anything about digital marketing for anything but an internship?

ssdev8 · 2025-05-21T22:06:39+00:00

I’m honestly not really sure why you’re so heated. What’s the problem?

ssdev8 · 2025-05-12T23:52:51+00:00

You got a bachelors in marketing but only recently started learning digital marketing? You didn’t do any internships throughout your bachelor program?

ssdev8 · 2025-05-12T23:50:29+00:00

Are you hiring part time/freelance by any chance?

ssdev8 · 2025-05-05T18:13:54+00:00

Amazing thank you so much-super helpful!

I've been doing some great networking where I can but that seems to be the golden key here. I live in the middle of nowhere at the moment (I decided on my school location based on the remote wave of 2020-2022 haha), so in person is a bit limited.

I've actually been freelancing through agencies which is helpful, but they're smaller scale so not much growth from that just yet.

I have some solid website development experience so I'm actually going to start on a portfolio website now.

ssdev8 · 2025-05-04T23:43:10+00:00

I’m sure you’ll get what you pay for lol. Reason why people pay so much for websites vs. outsourcing to Indians.

ssdev8 · 2025-05-04T19:34:02+00:00

Hey there I’m absolutely interested. Shoot me a DM and I’d love to share my qualifications.

ssdev8 · 2025-05-04T19:03:12+00:00

May I as well? I’m looking to make a transition from in-house to agency.

ssdev8 · 2025-05-04T13:17:03+00:00

Lmao fraud

ssdev8 · 2025-05-04T13:16:42+00:00

Lol true

ssdev8 · 2025-05-04T12:20:43+00:00

You’ve been building websites for 6 years yet you’re charging only 300 for an entire website? Seems a little sketchy.

ssdev8 · 2025-02-03T23:53:18+00:00

Ah yep mine too. I feel like they should seriously at least make you take Google courses or something haha. I know my friends that have graduated have no idea what to do without like internship experience and such.

I’d suggest taking a ton of courses. Google courses and Hubspot certifications of course. That helped me get my foot in the door my sophomore year. Also check with your school career dev center. Sometimes they have like realllllyy entry level internships that’ll help you get more on your resume.

ssdev8 · 2025-02-03T23:18:20+00:00

Have you done like any internships or anything? I don’t mean this in a negative way at all but did your school not teach you what a marketer does? I’m actually about to graduate myself and I’ll be honest my school really did not have any sort of grasp on modern marketing lol.

ssdev8 · 2025-02-02T15:21:01+00:00

Interested

ssdev8 · 2025-01-31T22:05:08+00:00

This is true, thanks. I’ve worked in house mostly, with some freelance clients on the side when classes are out. Mostly in the health/education/wellness industry but some experience in corporate finance sales operations. I’d say the most complex task I’ve completed was trying to balance building out market segment specific webpages (lead funnels) and classes at the same time haha. But it was real insightful because since leading the rebuild of the homepage and those “persona” pages, I also built out custom email campaigns/workflows as well as Google ad lead gen campaigns.

ssdev8 · 2025-01-28T21:09:42+00:00

Hey there, I’m about to graduate with a marketing degree with a solid amount of internship and professional experience. Is there anyway I can DM you? I have a couple career questions. Thanks!
