Working in marketing is a constant battle between deadlines, trying to balance a million tasks at once, and dealing with pushy clients who think that once they sign the contract, hundreds of new sales will come flying in. To be a marketer, it requires equal parts creativity, strategy, and caffeine. And just when you think you’ve got everything under control, a last-minute request comes in that threatens you to throw in the towel right then and there. But despite the chaos, there’s something oddly satisfying about working in marketing. Maybe it’s the rush of adrenaline you get from meeting a tight deadline or the sense of accomplishment you feel when a campaign finally comes together. It’s the little moments, like when you’re dead-end scrolling on social media and run into one of your ad campaigns, it’s like a little rush of excitement fills you, and you do a little fist bump in appreciation that your SEO efforts finally paid off. And while it may not always be easy, it’s definitely never boring. But hey, at least you’re not in sales.
