I’m a dad, ex-pat, a Dane, and a marketing man. Yes, I like to use that description referring to the old Ad men at Madison Avenue, where guys like David Ogilvy and George Lois were setting the standards for advertising. Yes, the series Madmen also got inspiration from there.
However, to use a more Google-friendly term, I am an online marketer currently working as a partner manager at Fan Fuel / Wolfson Brands.
But of course, like anyone else in the online world, I have hustle and side business as a solopreneur as well. I will discuss them in future posts here on my blog.
On top of being a marketing man, I am also an ex-pat, currently residing in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. I was flirting with the words of being a digital nomad. But I hate putting myself into boxes and becoming a member of a certain group. Instead, I prefer to belong to myself and then get to know people from all sorts of social layers and get inspired by many different people instead of just one group.
On top of that, being a good marketer requires that you see things from above and avoid following the trends of a specific group, good or bad.
Life as an ex-pat is neat. It gives you a certain level of freedom but also requires a great amount of self-discipline, especially if you, like me, still want to move forward in the career world.
I will give you many tips and advice in future posts if you want to do like me, become an ex-pat.
Oh yes, I’m originally from Copenhagen, in Denmark, in case you wonder.
The Purpose of this Blog
So why in the heck have a blog?
Well, one thing I believe is especially important in your life is to get out of your comfort zone. Not only once but repeated times. It’s important to push yourself out where you feel unprotected and vulnerable.
One way of doing that is to open yourself up to the world and write about events that happen in your life. Events that you believe other people can get inspired and learn from.
Being vulnerable and helping other people by being it, I think that’s the way to true happiness, joy, and belonging. If you believe you have heard that one before, then I can; yes, you have. It is heavily inspired by Breene Brown and The Call to Courage.
Breaking The Golden Rule in Online-Marketing
I teach this to my partners in my hustles and projects; You must be as niche specific as possible to be seen on Google, social media, and whatever endeavor you are trying to achieve.
Well, it gets boring and starts looking the exact same as everyone else, with their beige or light blue colors.
So, with my blog, I will write about whatever topic I find interesting. But you will get a lot of stuff about marketing, traveling, being an ex-pat, personal development, and some sugar crushes here and there.
Now I will keep quiet. I hope that you will like my blog and it somehow can inspire you on your journey.
