Okay I’m so glad to see someone opposing the other videos. Telling people that they need “zero experience in marketing” to start a digital marketing firm… HUGE red flag. It’s discrediting the people who are working their butts off to learn it and who are actually providing people with quality service. Great video, thank you for your honesty!

[@andreasfanelli6510]

I work as freelance account manager and strategist. I always wondered why on Upwork there were so many people looking for media buyers with the exact same descriptions and $500 a client offer. After a while I started to see the videos and put two and two together. No wonder so many of my clients had these horribly managed accounts and clueless agencies. It's truly a pandemic of fake businesses. Appreciate you addressing this.

[@joseneto1994ago]

Good point

[@Tylermckenzie369]

I’ve just began to show interest in digital marketing. My main worry is delivering the service that the client will have spent money on, I decided I’m going to work in my friends agency for a few months in different positions just to learn the in’s and out’s. The get rich quick mindset is a good motivator but can be the very reason an aspiring entrepreneur might never have longevity for their service and business overall. Thanks for your honesty, hard legitimate work pays off!

Aaron, I couldn't agree more with you! I've been in the industry for 12 years, owning an agency for 6 years (before it got "cool"), and unfortunately, we're the ones that have to deal with these "agencies" because we pick up the pieces from these people taking money from businesses who have no idea what they're doing. Great video! I appreciate your content

I am in this industry as well, for 7 years. Don't worry about these "agencies" the time would test them, and most of them are failing the first year. I have serious clients that I am working with for years, they won't run away from me for sure. I am also sure that you have that kind of client as well, which makes the business secure.

[@RPTINTING]

I 100% agree with you. I spent 6 years in my service company, 3 years practicing PPC, work with hundreds of shops and distribute film to my industry AND tint about 350-500 cars a year. I still felt very under skilled to offer PPC work to other shops. When they say it’s easy to make 10,000 a month I wish they would talk about the length of that client. It is not easy to scale and you need to know many skills to offer a digital marketing agency.

Such a breath of fresh air Aaron, It's literally a conveyor belt strategy with this "arbitrage" method. Your work will look very generic and inconsistent I'd imagine, since you won't have a stable team. I couldn't in good conscience charge clients a premium price while paying someone from a poorer country very little to then pocket the profits for myself. I know that's literally what most businesses do with cheap labour. I'm hopefully going to start my own digital agency within the next few years, I am currently doing my MSc international marketing but did my undergrad in commercial photography. So product Photography is what I specialise in but I also do graphic and web design. At the moment while I'm studying I'm building up my website with client work, which I'm actually doing for one of my Modules at university. I have a few friends that are freelancers so if I were to do the whole hiring freelancers it would be them I'd go to, and I would also get involved myself and learn about their craft so I actually have a clue of what they do so I can create project briefs for them. Yeah I won't become a millionaire but I'd be doing something I love and to a higher standard. To make a business like this takes time and it needs a solid foundation not a weak one that will burn out quickly

[@GrowthVertical]

I love this Aaron! I've literally been writing up some points to talk about this in a new video of mine. Even becoming a freelancer or consultant for those who don't want to run an agency - can be still be tough, it's again - undersold. Great post and keep em coming! 👌

[@soultones3580]

Thank you so much for clearing this up, literally no one else talks about this. Offering a service that you know nothing about seemed pretty weird to me. It's like saying "I know absolutely nothing about construction, but I'm going to become a general contractor and hire 10 people to work on people's homes while also subcontracting to roofers plumbers and electricians." I guess they omit the part that you have to get experience because that costs money - which goes against their claim that you can start this with no money at all.

[@AaronYoungGoogleAds]

Yep 100% agree. I will give it to them that the one thing they are good at is sales. But eventually if there is nothing backing up their claims it all falls down pretty quickly

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! It is so frustrating seeing all guys who are effectively just sh*tty freelancers calling themselves agencies. To really build a true agency with employees and different departments. It takes an INCREDIBLE amount of work. Something that I do not agree with is that you need to be and EXPERT in one of the services you offer. I am a firm believer in hiring people much smarter then yourself. Now it becomes harder if you are just hiring freelancers. But thats why most of my employees work in the physical office and are full time employees that only work for me. Then I can focus on building my sales team. I am not sure where you are at with your agency but keep up the great work man! And yes SALES is a huge skill you will need.

So recently i started a graphic/logo design brand. been doing designs for some years for clients and i thought i could expand my job as a brand and work with others to create a place for people to get work and for clients to get results by me and future colleagues. I've recently started and I'm loving the process of creating a brand and doing business management stuff. a dream of mine. but i understand that I'm not gonna be making mony of of it for a while, so i'll be working my a' off for some time, but i enjoy it alot and want to work on it. i still have my remote job and make some money to take care of my expenses, but my main focus is on this brand and getting attractions towards it. i don't dream about this becoming a million dollar brand or be something super special, but i really love the process, and this kind of work is really enjoyable for me. there is a thing tho, yesterday i watched a video with some title like " how young success, young entrepreneurship is a lie". well as i said I'm not dreaming about this to make millions, but still im following a dream of creating a brand at a young age (23). the video kinda said you should work for others, learn till you're older, then become an entrepreneur when you are 30 or 40. and a lot of comments were agreeing with it and they said they are 30 40 and know what they are talking about. so now, im wondering if im doing something wrong? am i wasting my time with this? should i just give up on this and go work for others? i said i still have a job and always had one since i was 15 16, but my main focus now is building this thing and when it's getting results, im slowly going to go full time on it. so I'm in a dilemma right now, should i cross off the brand and just continue doing work for other till im older, or i should stick with it and do something that is important to me and im passionate about? i don't have a single doubt about myself, and my potential, but i don't want to do something that is not what i think it is

Hi Aaron, great video and thanks for highlighting this issue of digital marketing agencies selling the dream without helping people achieve overnight success while travelling the world without a care. I have been in digital marketing for around 10 years and don't know any business owners with this kind of lifestyle. I and many other honest agencies/freelancers in Australia are happy you have highlighted the real-world skills needed to become a specialist in one of the digital marking channels to be a proficient user of Google Ads, SEO or some other channel. It takes time to become an expert, and there is no way anyone will make the ridiculous amounts of money these people claim is possible.

Now i understand that i need to become an expert to my field (facebook ads) but being new to the industry and having no experience on sales etc i'm having a lot of trouble in finding clients that i can work for and gain experience. I have no money (still in school) and no experience running facebook ads. How can i attract new clients, and convince them that i can help them? with no testimonials and no prior experience? and while not having any money to run advertisements for myself to gain experience through my agency first, before feeling ready to serve people?

[@arua152]

I strongly recommend you start a simple business first, and hone in your marketing skills there. It is incredibly difficult to start a marketing agency without any money or experience, I genuinely have no idea how this trend became a thing. Start a simple clothing brand, blog, service company, etc. and learn to market it well. Then you can pivot to helping other companies like yours with their marketing. The company you start doesn't necessarily need to become highly profitable or scalable, you just need a sandbox to practice real marketing and sales. I recommend a service industry company if you're serious about moving to social media marketing, because more skills you learn will translate since a SMMA is a service company.

After that you can then market yourself to businesses confidently.

You really have to love the thumbnail. It’s such a good slap in the face to those garbo channels

What if I dont want to become a millionaire, I work as a QA analyst in argentina making 3.5k a month, which is a lot of money here because of the currency exchange. If Im able to generate 3-5k a month I´ll be set for starters, I just want to run adds for existing companies and get money off the clicks or sales without having to get my own clients, how can I do that?

[@jonnyharvey]

Yes a lot of those videos seem so flimsy. I'm watching them thinking there are so many holes in their explanations and strategies, which they always seem to conveniently ignore.

[@AaronYoungGoogleAds]

Exactly! thanks mate

This video is bs because nobody said that you wont be delivering and it wont be difficult. The only thing that makes this worthwhile and attractive is that its a low barrier to entry business for people. There is no shortcut to anything. We know this.

I belive you said the trueth 👍

[@tafaramanzou5220]

This is a great video which i feel will help me a lot, but what should I do if I haven't worked with anyone before? I am just starting out and I don't have any previous clients, what should I do?

[@leonardofaria968]

work for free, get testimonials, and actually prove that you can get results for your clients

I strongly recommend you start a simple business first, and hone in your marketing skills there. It is incredibly difficult to start a marketing agency without any money or experience, I genuinely have no idea how this trend became a thing. Marketing is such a quickly evolving, complex skill that I can't imagine it being a good way to start entrepreneurship off the bat. This is compounded by the fact that there are so many shitty marketing agencies, that every single one of your leads will have had terrible experiences with them. Every client I've ever had has been scammed by SMMA's that failed to deliver what was promised. Start a simple clothing brand, blog, service company, etc. and learn to market it well. Then you can pivot to helping other companies like yours with their marketing. The company you start doesn't necessarily need to become highly profitable or scalable, you just need a sandbox to practice real marketing and sales. I recommend a service industry company if you're serious about moving to social media marketing, because more skills you learn will translate since a SMMA is a service company.

@@arua152 Is it plausible that I pay a freelancer out of pocket and give the first client or 2 their services for free for testimonials?
