My first boss in marketing hired me based on my “mommy blog.” That’s it. Just my writing and my site creation. He saw a SaaS marketer in there somewhere that I didn’t even know existed and launched my career.

I was also hired into marketing with no business experience; my background is clinical/education based. At the time, I was just happy to get hired outside of my field at all. I had no idea I would fall in love with marketing like I have and it completely changed the trajectory of my life.

Someone unexpectedly gave me an opportunity to make life-changing money in his place (by selling equity on the secondary market) because he thought I’d earned it. He did that unasked. Selling equity can be all about timing, and the timing worked out in my favor because of this person.
