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
1. Build and launch your own ecommerce site or setup a seller account on any marketplace (ie Amazon)
2. Start selling to learn what works and what doesn’t
3. Repeat with step1 on a second product etc
4. Start a blog/podcast/community and share your experience you have went through in points 1 to 3.
