I’m sick of working in Pharma advertising. I don’t feel good about what I do and my clients are an absolute nightmare. Needless to say, I’m ready to jump ship and explore a marketing career outside of agencies (possibly at a record label - I love music). Any advice on how to leave an agency and get a new job in-house somewhere? Idk where to begin or what title I’d apply for.

Hey everyone!
I'd love to get your feedback on our subscription marketing service.

My partner and I created a cost-effective subscription so small / medium-sized businesses could focus more running their business and strategies without the need to hire in-house, manage multiple freelancers, or fight with agencies.

We do this with a proprietary Workspace so marketing managers can delegate projects, connect with our team, and download completed work / files.
