Question
I'm taking marketing courses and very interested in becoming a consultant someday, helping e-commerce companies with their marketing efforts. However I have little experience in it for now.
I want to offer a service that will be low risk for a company to hire me to help them with.
Perhaps copywriting for Facebook ads, or writing e-commerce email sequences, or writing product descriptions or managing Pinterest campaigns?
Since Im not in the field yet and trying to break in, any suggestions on what I could offer that a client would say "Yes! We need you."
I really don't care. I'll empty trash cans if it means I'll be an e-commerce consultant someday.
thank you
Answer
A somewhat different approach, but have you considered finding companies that utilize tools like Co-Schedule (tools whereas team members write posts, but those posts have to be approved to go live)? Such businesses are more typical to use entry-level marketers. This method could help you find a place that will recognize your growth as you build experience, which can open doors down the road.
