Success story: how the crisis helped Belarusian marketer Evgeniy Kisel become a successful manager of the international Digital agency E-PR Online
The modern Internet space has significantly expanded the boundaries and allowed everyone, regardless of their location, to work and do what they love. This is directly confirmed by the positive experience of the digital agency E-PR Online, whose staff successfully employs professionals from all over the world. Among them are our compatriots who still live in Russia, Belarus, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Ukraine and other countries. Is it possible to develop successful projects and interact with such leaders in the world of mass media as Forbes, Fox News, NBS and others, while remaining in a country with an average salary of $300?
Remote collaboration is a new word in the field of Internet marketing. Until recently, in order to engage in advertising through the media, it was necessary to have numerous personal contacts and spend a lot of time on trains. And the process of preparing the publication of an ad or video required the involvement of a lot of additional people. But the effectiveness of this kind of advertising was difficult to predict in advance.
But today everything has changed. There are several productive schemes that are guaranteed to generate profits and can make customers market leaders. And this does not require numerous personal meetings, negotiations and agreements. All issues are agreed upon through established video communication channels and provide great scope for creativity. But how to find such an employer, and are there real examples of this kind of cooperation? We talked to one of the best specialists at the digital agency E-PR Online and asked him to reveal the secret of his success. Evgeny Kisel from Belarus about working in one of the successful digital agencies in New York, E-PR Online. E-PR Online, headquartered in New York, has been a leader in the international online advertising market for many years.
And, unlike many other business projects engaged in similar activities, it does not require employees to be citizens, be constantly present at the workplace, or have direct personal interaction with customers. Such a policy is already bearing significant fruit. For example, a group of digital marketing professionals living in the CIS countries is considered one of the most creative and productive among the entire staff. They have dozens of startups and companies that, thanks to well-placed advertising, were able to become leaders in their field. The guys' earnings average $5.
We asked one of the team managers, Evgeniy Kisel, who now lives in Belarus, to say a few words about his work. Evgeniy has been researching the advertising market for a long time. At one point, he began collaborating with the E-PR Online agency, which opened up international prospects for him. According to him, the impetus for the transition to a new format of work was the crisis and the decline in the general standard of living. He did not accept the fact that, despite his productive activities, his income did not increase, and began to look for new opportunities. Today, even being in the epicenter of geopolitical conflicts, Evgeniy is engaged in successful activities and does not depend on the general standard of living in his country.
What prevents other digital specialists from achieving the same success? Evgeniy noted the importance of leaving the “comfort zone”. When there are no objective crisis factors, a person, according to him, continues to move along the same lines, and thus it is difficult to achieve a career shift. It’s worth taking a risk, overcoming professional laziness and testing yourself in a new path. It is especially important when there is reliable support from the employer. For Evgeniy, such support was the management of E-PR Online, which creates all the conditions for the development and growth of each of its employees.
We found out that the E-PR Online agency is currently expanding its staff. The company is looking for talented guys all over the world, including the CIS countries, and is ready to provide free training for those who really want to improve in the field of Digital marketing and work for results.
