This is the final presentation I gave to my Digital Marketing Team before departing U-Haul International in June. Light on marketing tactics, hopefully helpful on career advice and lessons learned from 10 years building and leading teams in different fields.

2. Know Yourself

3. NEVER STOP LEARNING
the market isn’t slowing down

4. Set Goals

5. READ MORE THAN YOU TALK
Google should be the first person you ask

6. Write Every Day

7. SHARE & HELP OTHERS
learning does you no good if you don’t apply it

8. WORK ON YOUR PITCH
build bridges, market to the PMs

9. SPEND MORE TIME ON
WRITING THAN VISUALS
eighty cents of your dollar is in the headline

10. Stop Defeating Yourself

11. Start being whatever you
want to be

12. Learn the skills others
don’t have

13. You aren’t owed anything

14. Find inspiration

15. WHEN YOU SEE A PROBLEM, BE
THE SOLUTION
everyone else will be too afraid of the hard
work or chance to fail

16. YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA
your career or your friends & relatives?

17. This is how I got my job

18. Karla & Brad: Leverage this for
value/jumping-off point

19. YOUR SIDE HUSTLE WILL SET
YOU APART
others may have more resources, but you can
always put in more time
