What inspired you to start your own business?
The inspiration to launch my own business stemmed from the constraints I faced while working within the structure of a marketing agency. The limitations on hours allocated to each client's ad account or website were a significant source of frustration. The higher management's insistence on adhering strictly to these time constraints, even when certain projects required more attention, felt like a barrier to achieving optimal results.
I yearned for the freedom to offer my services without such boundaries and to work tirelessly until the desired outcomes were achieved. The inherent flexibility and agility of an independent business model appealed to me, allowing me to prioritize the needs of each client individually and provide the level of dedication required to ensure their success. Starting my own business became a natural progression, driven by a genuine desire to offer clients a more personalized and results-oriented approach to digital marketing and business growth
