Choose Your Mid-Career Switch Pathway

Get Placed in a Digital Marketing Job

freelance digital marketer job

Digital marketers typically follow one of two common pathways: securing a job in the industry or working as a freelancer.

Getting Placed in a Digital Marketing Job

Senior digital marketers can earn up to $180,000 per year, while entry-level positions offer $2,500 to $3,500 per month, according to sources like Glassdoor, PayScale, and Robert Walters. However, breaking into the industry can be challenging without prior experience or a portfolio, as companies and digital agencies prefer candidates who demonstrate practical skills and experience.

The Digital Marketing SCTP courses will help you:

  • Enhance your resume (CV)
  • Build your portfolio
  • Gain practical hands-on experience and job-ready skills

Becoming a Freelance Digital Marketer

Freelance digital marketers can earn between $150 and $1000 per project on platforms like Fiverr and Upwork. This, of course, depends on experience, expertise, and the complexity of the projects. However, securing projects can be difficult without a strong personal brand or connections.

This Digital Marketing SCTP courses will provide you with:

  • Industry networking opportunities
  • Connections with local businesses
  • Exposure to a global client database

Become an IT Professional

  • Junior Level (3-5 years): $50,000 to $70,000 per year
  • Mid-Level (5-10 years): $70,000 to $120,000 per year
  • Senior Level (10+ years): $150,000 to $250,000+ per year

  • Develop project management skills
  • Gain advanced knowledge in IT strategy and governance
  • Build a network of professional contacts

  • Small projects: $5,000 – $10,000
  • Medium projects: $10,000 – $50,000
