What do you enjoy most about being in your current role?
What I enjoy most is bringing in deals for our clients. We become pretty close with our clients and work with them often.
Being able to tell them that we've landed them a five or six-figure deal is a great feeling. This is especially true if it's for a brand they really like.
It's gratifying to see them get recognition for their content creation work. Knowing that the brands they like want to spend money with them and partner with them is one of the best parts of my job.
