Market Like a Hotshot Episode 6: Things They Don't Teach You About Marketing

It's a general consensus that while college is excellent at creating a foundation and exposing students to their future industries, it can sometimes fall short in real-life applications and experiences. Even as an intern, you don't get the FULL experience of working with a company and fully settling into your role. We'll be talking about: Execution and how it's ok to fail at first. Learning and improving are just as crucial as the final product. The importance of mastering networking, creating, and maintaining real connections. How to stay flexible and able to adapt quickly in the fast-paced, always-changing marketing industry. James and Jeff share stories and tips about their time in college and their careers. Whether it was having to explain to a CEO about their website being down or not knowing how to network right out of college, they have anecdotes and life lessons for everything!

When it comes to marketing, a few courses or even an entire degree can only prepare you for so much. Real-world experience is where you actually learn and practice what you've been studying. Your goal shouldn't be to execute campaigns with zero mistakes; instead, you should always be looking ahead, innovating, and thinking about where you can improve.
