Episode Synopsis "How dropping out helped me become a Youtube Star - Jade Darmawangsa"
On our show today, how Jade Darmawangsa built a community through Youtube and used her influence to inspire the next generation of Gen Z marketers in today’s digital age. Remind yourself of your highschool days. Obnoxiously loud school bells, running from period to period, and the days of cramming weeks worth of work into a few hours. I couldn’t even imagine living on my own in those days. Recently, there has been a large rise of Gen Z marketers. Now, while it’s easy to just run some guy’s social media and call yourself a Gen Z marketer, these people are different. Truly great ones are young people who really have marketing down to a science. They understand how to create marketing messages and ads that stand out amongst all the noise of today’s digital age. And when deployed in a startup or enterprise, they can really make a large difference. Today’s guest found her breakthrough moment at, believe it or not, the age of 9 years old with her e-commerce brand. And as you may have guessed by now, she dropped out of highschool at the age of 16 and now runs a marketing agency and is the founder of the startup PBJ app.
