Many believe you need a degree or big investment to start a digital career. I started with just a +2 qualification. Today, I help clients run ads, build websites, manage social media, and generate leads. If I can, you can too.
My Beginning
After finishing +2, I was curious about social media. I began managing a friend’s clothing shop page. Slowly, I learned:
How Facebook Ads work
What people click and buy
How to design posters using Canva
Basic SEO and website creation
I didn’t go to college for digital marketing. I learned from YouTube, blogs, trial and error.
Tools I Use Today
Meta Ads Manager
Canva Pro
Google Analytics
WhatsApp Business
ChatGPT
With these tools, I run campaigns for businesses across Kerala and sometimes even abroad
💡 Lessons I Want to Share
1. Start Small – Begin with one tool or one client.
2. Be Consistent – Post regularly. Learn daily.
3. Build a Portfolio – Show your work, even if unpaid at first.
4. Don’t Fear English – Use Malayalam where needed. What matters is result.
Message to Others Like Me
If you’re a +2 student, unemployed, or confused about career choices – consider digital marketing. In 2025, this is the most flexible, creative, and fast-growing field.
I’m from Malappuram. I didn’t have a big degree. Still, I made it.
