Welcome to the world of skilled digital marketers.
It’s no real surprise why digital marketing skills are such a sought-after skill set when you stop and think about it. These days, everything is online. From the latest news to chatting with friends, to shopping, even dating or booking a doctor’s appointment, it’s all there at your fingertips.

That person could be you! Imagine calling the shots of when you work, how many hours you work and all the while earning more income than a full-time job.
The path to digital marketing
This is when you need to know just what is involved in digital marketing and how you can get your foot in the door.
It’s easy to be asking ‘Won’t I need one or more of the following to make it as a digital marketer?’, such as:
- A tech background.
- A university degree in marketing or communications.
- Experience in the digital field.
- A love for computers.
The answer to that question is NO.
The special thing about digital marketing is that you don’t need any experience at all in the tech industry or a University degree or a love of anything but how to break free from a limiting mindset.
The power and beauty of working as a digital marketer is that you can learn the high-income skills you need without any previous knowledge or experience.
All you need is a commitment and dedication to learning what you need to leave your old job behind and start living life as your own boss.
How to make the change to financial freedom
It is not unusual to think that something that has you earn more but work less sounds like some get rich scheme. It’s anything but that.
By building digital skills, you are making yourself one of the most sought after professionals in today’s market. You will not just be in high demand, there is actually a shortage of digital marketers.
This means that you don’t have to stay trapped in the world of earning money based on the hours that you work. You are now able to call the shots because you have the ability to charge for the value that you bring. It’s a value that nearly any business is willing to pay for because it’s all about results and not how long you have ‘been on the clock’.
Suddenly, that dream of having a new car, taking an overseas holiday, renovating your home or buying a new place is in your grasp. The best part is that you will have more free time to do the things you love. That could be spending more time with your family, taking time out for yourself and your special interests or working on your fitness or even working on your tan. The point is that the choice is yours.
Working from wherever you want to be
People have seen how easy it is to work remotely over the last few years and these days, it’s not uncommon for people to work from home on certain days. The biggest surprise was how liberating it could be for some people to work the hours around what they needed to do, without the need to commute.
With remote marketing as your new career path, you have the choice to work not just the hours that you want, but from wherever you want.
Want to work from home in and around the family schedule of school drop-offs and pick-ups? It’s easy.
Rather have the mornings to yourself and keep the afternoon for your work hours? It’s all made possible.
What about taking a longer holiday and working from the hotel poolside with a cocktail to sip on? You can do that too!
There is virtually no limit to where you can work when you have your digital marketing life working for you. All you need is your laptop, a reliable internet connection and the world is your oyster.
Set yourself up for life with a new mindset
It can be hard for some people to break free of the ‘employee mindset’ and for obvious reasons. If you’ve always worked a typical job of set hours and having a boss, there is not much more to it than doing what you’re asked.
It’s a routine that the majority of people are caught up in and it can seem difficult to believe there is another way to work.
The idea of being self-employed in your own business means taking on all the responsibilities and stress of having to keep things ticking over and keeping the business afloat. That usually means long hours and working late into the night on things like mountains of paperwork.
There’s a different path that means you create your own business but work LESS hours than ever before. That’s the power that digital marketing gives you.
You can learn the skills you need to know to begin building your own folio of clients and scale it up whenever you need to with the minimum of effort. It’s in having the right systems and processes in place that allow you to add more clients by
It’s all about keeping things simply replicating what you’ve done before.
What this means is that you have more business ticking over, but you are taking less time to look after it all. This is when the dream of a 4 hour workday becomes a reality and one that gives you true financial freedom.
