Life With Zee
A few years ago, I was a freshly minted graduate with a passionate desire to create something impactful. However, I was at a loss as to how to actualize this aspiration. Fast forward to the present day, and I find myself immersed in the dynamic field of marketing, traversing South Africa in pursuit of my professional endeavors. The wealth of experiences and encounters that I have had the privilege of engaging in have been nothing short of extraordinary, leaving me awe-struck! Unfortunately, I have noticed that in modern times, trivial metrics such as social media follower counts have become the primary factor in determining who has the right ‘influence’ to share their stories with a wider audience. If you ask me, I’d say it’s BS and doing a great disservice to our community. So, I embarked on this adventure to create a podcast that would serve as a platform to showcase the fascinating stories and insights from a diverse range of personalities, such as business founders, influencers, content creators, corporate executives, PhD candidates, and more.Consider this podcast as an invitation to a quick coffee chat with me, where you get to tap into a wealth of inspiring stories, reflective narratives, and invaluable tips. Now, sit back, relax and enjoy a snack as we embark on this journey! —————Like the show? Feel free to buy a cup of tea to support https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Lifewithzee

EP 31 Zee: My Marketing Journey
After maaaaaaaannnnyyyy DM's and messages, I've decided to bring you a VERY short mix of my 2 cents on marketing and how to break into the industry 🥳.
Having to do this solo is incredibly hard, so just bear with my AHDH rabbit holes! But, in this episode, I've asked ChatGPT to tell me the best suited questions to help get the point across. So, in this episode I share:
- How I started my career
- What to study (even if you've got a degree)
- Which tertiary institutions to look at
- Networking as a marketer
- LinkedIn networking and your brand
- New trends you should know about
- Authenticity online and more!
I hope this sheds some light on my journey and provide a bit of guidance for yours 👏🏼.
