On this episode of Real Talk University, Andre and Christian sat down with Rohan Sheth, who is the co-founder at GrowRev, a massively successful social media marketing agency. Through 10 years of experience in the industry, he has discovered some of the best strategies and methods to find success in the industry. While he provided massive value throughout the episode, the guys took 3 main takeaways out of the episode.

1. Don’t hesitate to work for free early on. While it should never be for longer than around 60 days, being able to get your foot in the door with companies and show them your worth with no risk to them is huge. If you can prove your worth, beginning to pay a monthly fee will be a no brainer for the client.
   
2. When you have a client, they are exactly that: a CLIENT. Do not allow them to treat you as an employee and tell you what to do. You are the expert, you know what is best for their marketing strategies. If your client relationship is controlling and you are not allowed to show your skills and help them grow, it can turn toxic very quickly. Make this clear before you even ink a deal with them.
   
3. Amassing a large social media following isn’t necessary to land clients. While social media is undoubtedly one of the most effective methods of client outreach, a large audience that doesn’t engage with your content isn’t useful. Instead, look to build a smaller, more loyal following that will actually translate to business. Rohan himself recently deleted 30k followers off of his page as he stands by this statement wholeheartedly.
