Being Laid Off. What should I Do next?
Last year March, I was hired as Growth & Marketing Lead in one of the companies abroad at 30LPA (Remote). Now, they are shutting the project I’m in and have received a notice.
I’m a Marketer by profession with expertise in 0-1 growth in startups. I’ve 8 YOE. Now the problem is, 0-1 startups in India can’t afford me easily and other startups say I don’t have experience in series B and further kind of startups.
If 0-1 have got good funding amount, they still want to hire someone who has experience of scaling Series A and further kind of startups.
The basic chicken and egg problem.
Although I’m trying to apply for the companies abroad, I’m super confused what should I do now. I’ve emergency funds to sustain 3 months but don’t want to rely on that.
And I’m a college dropout. So corporate is not really an option
if you're college dropout, you really should have build your agency or consultancy/freelancing service (for distribution), because it's risky to lose ur job and start over again
Yes I do some freelancing and consulting. But that’s on very small scale. Just pays my rent and basics.
