hey everyone welcome back to the channel
I'm Shane and if you're new here we're

opportunities that can transform your
life and today's video is special we're
going to be diving deep into the world
of digital marketing with Seth Jared a
man who's not just succeeded in the
field himself but he's also helped
thousands of others do the same and by
the end of this video you're going to
learn why digital marketing is the most
in demand career nobody knows about how
to break into the field without a
college degree and the power of
practical skills over traditional
education plus I'll be breaking down
exactly how Seth went from delivering
pizzas to Landing a six-figure job in
just 3 years so if you're feeling stuck
unsure about your future or you're just
looking for a way to level up your
career this video is going to be for you
so let's go ahead and dive in so who is
Seth like many of you watching he was a
college graduate without a degree that
wasn't getting where he wanted to be
like a lot of people I graduated college
with an i I had an art degree Film
Production which was completely
worthless I spent a lot of years waiting
tables delivering pizzas doing data
entry doing a lot of menial unfulfilling
jobs no idea how to have a fulfilling
career does that sound familiar Seth was
stuck in a dead-end job but he knew he
wanted more and that's when he stumbled
upon digital marketing a field that
would change his life forever so our
first big lesson from Seth story is the
incredible yet often overlooked demand
for digital marketers so let's break
this down while traditional marketing is
still taught in schools the real action
is happening in the digital world and
here's the kicker there's a massive
skill Gap the demand for digital
marketers is incredibly high and it has
been growing ever since 2011 when I got
my first job now there's over 200,000
open jobs in the US on LinkedIn every
day that's right over 200,000 open jobs
every single day but why is this
opportunity so hidden well it comes down
to three main factors first of all
there's rapid industry growth which is
outpacing education colleges simply
cannot keep up with the demand for
digital marketing skills that is
required from the market and they're
teaching stuff that worked 15 years ago
but it doesn't necessarily work now then
you've got number two which is the lack
of awareness about the field most people
simply don't realize the digital
marketing has as much demand as it does
and then number three is misconceptions
about needing a specialized degree but
this skill Gap creates a golden
opportunity for those willing to learn
and the best part you don't need a fancy
degree to get started so our second big
lesson is about the power of practical
skills over traditional education now I
know skipping College can sound scary
especially when it comes to your career
but hear me out Seth discovered that in
digital marketing what you can do is far
more important than the degree that you
have school University is so out of date
it's so um out of touch with the
realities of what employers and the
industry is actually looking for most
marketing programs are run by tenur
professors in fact I actually Googled um
myu which is my Helma monitor I looked
at their marketing program and um the
photograph on the front page of the
website is a guy who's got to be in his
SE late 70s or 80s teaching this class
and I'm not trying to be agist I'm just
talking practically guys who got uh
professors who got tenure 20 or 30 years
ago are not adapting and do not
understand modern marketing which is
primarily digital so let's break down
why practical skills are so valuable in
digital marketing first of all the field
is constantly evolving something might
have been true 5 years ago but isn't
true now just like 5 years ago there may
have been certain types of music that
were really popular like dubstep but
it's not so popular now marketing is the
exact same way plus hands-on experience
is much more valuable than Theory and
you can also start learning and apply
these skills immediately Nothing is
Stopping You from starting an ad account
on Google or Facebook and starting to
run ads to a personal website so that
you can practice doing this and the
biggest thing is employers care much
more about results than degrees degrees
are so common these days that basically
everyone has one and so therefore it's
no longer rare and no longer valuable
and especially in careers such as
digital marketing pretty much nobody
cares and this focus on practical skills
means that anyone regardless of their
background can break into this field if
they're willing to put in the work and
learn and our third lesson is all about
the potential for Rapid career growth in
digital marketing you see when Seth
started he had no experience but within
three years he was making six figures I
was hired with no experience and handed
$100,000 a month in advertising to
manage for this agency I was able to
leverage up for my first job where I was
making just about6 or $18 an hour all
the way up to six figures within three
years in this field now think about that
for a second from entry level to six
figures in just three years years this
rapid growth is possible because one the
skills are in high demand two there's a
clear path for progression three your
impact is measurable like if you run an
ad campaign and you spend $11,000 and
then you get $10,000 in return you very
obviously made the company a ton of
money whereas if you're doing marketing
and you're putting stuff up on
billboards you're doing tv ads the
return on investment isn't so obvious
and then the next thing is the field
rewards continuous learning now let's go
ahead and talk about something that gets
over looked the power of mentorship and
Community Seth didn't just succeed by
himself he's helped thousands of others
do the same I've had like a 19y old like
Kean who took the course got a $52,000 a
year uh entry level job and he leveled
up to 70k at this new agency within six
months and this is crucial having a
mentor in community can accelerate your
learning provide motivation and support
give you Insider knowledge of the
industry and help you avoid the common
pitfalls all right so let's talk numbers
and lifestyle because at the end of the
day one of the biggest advantages of
digital marketing is the financial
impact and flexibility that it offers
the flexibility and the value of digital
marketing is there's three fold you can
use it you can use these skill sets for
your own business promote your own
Instagram promote your own you know
Facebook promote your own blog whatever
it is so let's break this down first of
all there's High earning potential you
can make six figures within 3 to four
years there's a lot of remote work
opportunities and of course remote work
gives you a level of Freedom that normal
jobs simply won't be able to give you it
gives you a ton of time time location
and financial Independence then you've
got the flexibility to start your own
business this is something that would be
very difficult if you're doing a normal
9-to-5 job but since you're learning in-
demand skills in digital marketing and
you're not being supervised as much it's
a lot easier to start your own business
plus it's teaching you skills that are
valuable across just about every
industry out there every industry out
there needs to do marketing and digital
marketing is the most valuable type of
marketing so this combination of high
earning potential and flexibility is
rare in today's job market which makes
digital marketing an incredibly
attractive career path and by the way if
