Hello everyone!
Glad to be here. I joined MRIC to nosedive into becoming a better marketer.
The end goal is to start my own business using direct mail and/or internet marketing. What business that will be… time will tell.
And dabble in some client work once I’ve proved my chops.
I’ll be in your care.

Welcome, Jelani!
Hi, good to have you here! Just starting out too, 4 month into the hardcome-marketing-practice year to set me up for my own business in the future. When do you feel you are ready to take on client work?
I want to reread Kick-Ass Marketing Rebel at least 5 times. Following that, I’ll craft some samples and then start outreach. With the samples, the client will decide if I’m ready or not.
