If you knew all these skills you wouldn’t be asking this question

Especially social media marketing
Can you really go big with social media marketing? Like Who will trust you if you don't have any case studies

Start small and go from there

Do some work for free to get case studies

Start your own company and run the ads for it

You won’t get a million dollar client or business from day 1

Can you go big with it? Of course you can

There’s hundreds of million dollar agencies out there

Million dollar ecom brands

Million dollar affiliate marketers

Lead gen businesses etc

But Think about it, even if i do it for free There still is ad budget. Free is service only. Now you think about it if you had 100$ ad budget. Wouldn't you get someone with previous experience(who does it for free), or would you get a noobie(who does it for free), and risk your money????

dont be a noobie. think about it.

stop with your excuses asking why you shouldnt do it. start doing it.

brain dumps:
if you can music produce go sell quality beats.
if you can music produce go sell mixing/mastering services.
if you know video editing get a editing job on fiverr/upwork.
...

will this be easy? no.
will this require more than just your valuable skill? yes.
will you need to be able to sell? yes.
will you need to be able to market? yes.
...

if you dont know how to do it. learn how to do it.

go sell any F*cking service you can provide:

this kid is takeing action and you just talking excuses since days.

You haven't failed enough (or maybe even at all). Just start on something, fail, and course correct. Failure is the key to success.

Who can you help today? Who can you help this week? Who do you know that you can sit down and have a coffee with to uncover some of their problems?

"Failure is the key to success."

Failures may give strong motivations to succeed, but this does not mean that you can be successful without failures. Those who fail and succeed learn from their own mistakes, but some people prefer to learn from other people mistakes.

For those who prefer to learn from other peoples mistakes, what do you think ignited their curiosity?

Do you think people who are motivated to pick up the Millionaire Fastlane or Unscripted haven't had any failures? There's an entire thread about people's FTE (F*ck this Event) that spurred them to turn their lives around--and/or read a book like TMF , to learn from other people's mistakes.

"what do you think ignited their curiosity?"

I agree that a failure is one such motivator, but it is not the only one.
For example, someone unfortunate to be born in terrible conditions will have a strong motivation to improve quality of life and succeed.

Everyone's circumstance is different. I was giving advice to the OP based on his post, which to me clearly shows he hasn't had enough failures.

Now what do i do with all this trash ???
Your attitude is trash.
This thread is trash.
Arguing with the OP is trash.
Trying to help someone who won't let go of their excuses is trash.

I can't help anyone who has no respect for the kind of work they allegedly want to do. Which is a shame because I am currently looking for a freelancer with these exact skills.

But a wise man told me at my first ever professional job... "Bizydad, the only reason I'll ever fire someone is a bad attitude. You can't work with those kinds of people. They are a cancer. If you ever let one in, you have to cut them out as quickly as possible."

So before you do anything else, fix the cancer in yourself Raj.

Or find another line of work.

Have you ever been on someone's website with case studies?

If so, have you ever reached out and verified those case studies?

Yeah, me either. No one else does too. Case studies are garbage and mean nothing.

If you need one that bad, make it up. No one will verify it anyways.

And before anyone suggests it, I am not telling him to lie. Im just trying to prove a point.

I have verified other agencies' case studies. I love doing it if I have time. It's an interesting prospecting tool.

At first I was surprised when the the person tells me "Oh we stopped working with them a while ago..."

Now I know this is actually the norm. Only once was the person still ecstatically happy about the "SEO service" they recieved. Meanwhile, I could tell from my tools that they weren't actually ranking for barely anything and their leads were coming intead from Facebook ads.

Consider your point proven.

Here's the answer compliments of an AI. I agree with it 100% ... if you chose the business route, Fastlane is your answer.

You are right. Unfortunately much of the business comminity still revolves around case studies.

I would never buy anything based on case studies. They hold 0 influence on my decision-making.

But for my own business I frequently find the need to resort to showing case studies and we’ve produced very detailed ones that I share privately. With some people, I even get them to speak with previous customers.

Most people, and that includes business owners, aren’t rational. They’d step on their own dick if there was a case study showing the benefits of it :rofl:
