What did you want to be when you grew up? Are you doing that now?

Post by elfwink »

When I was a kid I wanted to be an archaeologist/paleontologist and study old things.

Towards the end of high school I wanted to work in digital art and video games.

Nowadays I work in marketing. :lol:

You?

Ever since childhood I wanted to be a teacher. It became a more specific kind in high school.

Now I'm a freelancing editor/writer. I could use some marketing tips ironically. xD

Really? I think teaching seems really hard.

1st Quote: I was always inspired by my teachers. My home life was kinda hectic, but I always felt at ease at school. Well, after getting past the early days of preschool xD

2nd Quote: I'd hire you but I'm broke which is why I need said tips. xD

That's pretty unique. My memory of school is that it was always hectic. I'm sure teachers work very hard as well, as they need to discipline children and plan their week/lessons outside of work hours.

Are you looking for tips on any aspect in particular?

I'm basically looking for any tips I can get. I want to promote myself as an editor better, but I don't even know where to start. I don't have a set storefront or anything for the option, though, so maybe I should be working on that first? >w< I also need to find places where I can advertise my forum more, but that's unrelated to my work-based marketing needs. xD

I. Aries a lot myself. I wanted to be a teacher, then a special education teacher, then day care, and writing. Not doing any of that. XD Just work at McDonalds.

[mention]Juneberry[/mention] as for places to advertise I’d try some of the ones I’m listed at at the bottom. Some might be helpful.
Dook, dook, dook! :ferret:
