[AlphaHub Writing Competition] Being A Pioneer In A Startup: The STRUGGLE Is REAL

Dec 17, 2022

I’ve been working in a startup since last year and the struggle is real. Starting from small salary, delayed salary, to not getting paid at all. It was hard, with lots of sacrifices and learning. However, I’m grateful for the learning process and my growth as a person. My startup story started in November 2020. Right after my graduation, I got a job in a digital marketing agency in Yogyakarta. I was thrilled and excited as it was my first job. Everything was so new to me, I started to learn not only about the power of words but also about digital marketing, google ads, keyword tools, google trends, SEO, algorithm, design, funneling, vlogging, etc.
