I’m not ashamed to say I made a lot of mistakes in my first year. Each mistake taught me something valuable.

Mistake 1: Chasing Virality Instead of Value
I put too much effort into creating “viral” content with clickbait headlines and flashy posts, but they didn’t lead to conversions. I learned that consistency and value are more important than random spikes in attention.

Mistake 2: Ignoring the Client’s Business Model
I once developed a beautiful campaign with great graphics and strong copy. However, it didn’t match the client’s actual goals. I learned that it’s essential to start with strategy rather than design.

Mistake 3: Doing Everything Myself
I tried to juggle roles as the designer, strategist, copywriter, and analyst all at once. It left me feeling burned out. Eventually, I realized the importance of collaboration, delegation, and focusing on my strengths.

I appreciate those missteps because they turned me into a more thoughtful and strategic marketer
