About this Event
Careers in Marketing: What It Actually Looks Like
Everyone talks about “building a career in marketing.”
Very few people tell you what that actually means.
The zig-zags.
The sideways moves.
The freelance detours.
The moments you thought you were behind.
The promotions you didn’t see coming.
This event is your real-world pulse check on what a career in marketing actually looks like in 2026.
Join us for aan honest, practical conversation with marketers at different ages, stages and career paths, unpacking:
• How they actually got into marketing
• What they thought success would look like vs what it looks like now
• The skills that actually move the needle
• When to stay, when to leave, when to go freelance
• What separates marketers who grow from those who plateau
• What’s really happening in the job market right now
No vague inspiration.
No recycled LinkedIn advice.
Just real stories, real takeaways, and tangible advice you can apply immediately.
Who This Is For
This event is for you if:
• You’re early in your marketing career and trying to figure out your next move
• You’ve been in marketing for a few years and feel stuck or plateaued
• You’re considering going freelance or fractional
• You’re applying for roles and not hearing back
• You’re rethinking what “success” actually means to you
And honestly? It’s also for senior marketers who want perspective, clarity, or a reminder that no career is linear.
What You’ll Walk Away With
• A clearer understanding of what marketing careers actually look like
• Practical advice you can apply immediately
• A sharper sense of what skills to double down on
• Confidence that you’re not “behind”
• New connections with people navigating similar stages
This isn’t a lecture.
It’s a room full of marketers figuring it out - together. TMC style
If you care about your career in marketing (and don’t want to leave it to chance), you’ll want to be in the room.
Spots are limited.
See you there.
