A year ago, I had a signed $65K offer at an insurance company, zero marketing experience, and a resume full of internships I hated. Every conversation at work was about the weather, weekend plans, or someone's house renovation. Deep down I knew I wanted more, I just didn't know how to get there.
I walked away from that offer. Four months into my first startup job, I negotiated a $120K base, almost double what the "safe" job was paying. Today I lead growth at Stan, and I never applied. They'd been following my content for months, and reached out first.
This playbook is every step I took in between, written so you can copy it.

What's inside (16 pages):
Which startup roles hire people with no experience, and what to search for
Where to find startups worth working for, plus a tracker to copy
How to find the email of the person who can actually hire you
How to record a 2-minute video pitch that gets a reply
The exact email I sent Boardy's CEO, plus a template you can fill in
How to follow up so they want to reply
How to get warm intros without feeling like you're using people
How to get companies to come to you through your posts
What I look for now that I'm the one hiring
How I decided it was worth walking away from a signed offer
This is for you if:
You're a student or early in your career and want to do marketing or growth at a startup
Your resume doesn't match what you actually want to do
You're tired of applying through career portals and hearing nothing back
