I paid $320,000 for my marketing degree NYU Stern School of Business. My Instagram account cost $0.And guess which one got me a job. When Stan reached out, they didn’t care about my GPA.They didn’t ask for a transcript. I didn’t even submit my resume. Because they'd been following my content for months. My $0 instagram page WAS my resume.So why am I telling you this?NOT to tell you to drop out of college. College is valuable - please don’t read this and see this as your sign to drop out.But it’s a reminder that in marketing, you can go and create your own opportunities. As my friend Jay Yang likes to say, “you can just do things” You don't need a degree to prove you can create content. You don't need anyone's approval to build a personal brand.You can just do things.And right now, it’s literally FREE to start creating content. Instagram, Tiktok, Linkedin, Youtube, X are all free platforms to post on. Trust me, there’s going to be a day when we’re going to have to PAY to post. Marketing
