Be honest with me. How long did it take you to actually feel like you knew what you were doing in marketing?

I'm 18 months in and the more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know. Imposter syndrome through the roof. Everyone I look up to seems to have been born already knowing this stuff.

Was there a specific moment where you actually felt competent? Or did the feeling just slowly arrive and you noticed it months later? Or are you still waiting for it.

Trying to figure out if this is the job or if it's me.

Man, marketing is hard.

Everyone keeps telling me to ‘go do Reddit marketing or linkedin, blah blah’
but every subreddit says ‘don’t promote anything here.’
So... how are people actually supposed to do this?
Genuinely curious how you all navigate this without breaking rules

Are marketing jobs shrinking?

I attended an event last week, where a veteran marketer said: "You are either 10x, or you get replaced by AI." By "10x" he meant, one marketer should be able to do the job of 10.

His statement was mainly towards content writers because generative AI seemed to have chased down their jobs first

But I think it is relevant for marketers overall, which creates a dilemma for me: If I equip myself with AI and do the job of 10 other marketers, I am replacing 9 marketers

Is this a signal that marketing jobs are going to shrink in the future?

Would like to hear your thoughts
