I actually started a blog years ago but had no idea what to do with it. It was about relationship woes after divorce. I didn't know how to advertise or promote my blog so that idea came and went.
Fast forward to years later. I'm getting back to business. After doing research, I noticed that blogs are actually successful for the content I wanted to discuss. I had no idea individuals would be interested in my nerdy conversations about business, public relations, marketing and advertising tips.
You see. I studied public relations, image management, advertising and marketing in college. However, I never actually used this knowledge. I got a job with the government straight out of college that paid way more then my fancy internship with an Ad firm I landed back in Chicago.
What a mistake!
My low paying internship at the Ad firm could have paved the way for great opportunities in the future. I found myself at TV studios helping talent, before their segment, making sure they hit all the talking points for what they were promoting. I've walked pass celebs casually walking around the office. Been on set for filming with talent. Writing press releases, collab with athletes and corporations for grand openings and shoe deals.
I gave that up for a guaranteed check every two weeks. I'm not complaining. It has served its purposed for taking care of my family, but now it's back to business time for me!
Thanks for reading,
Jasmine
