Freelancer Story: From Corporate to Marketing Specialist
Kayleigh Milhalko is one of my Unicorn Digital Marketing Assistant School grads who’s been crushing it. Her journey is one so many of us can relate to—transitioning from the corporate world while juggling motherhood & caregiving. Kayleigh is the owner of Cloud Media Marketing and has been in the digital marketing space full-time for 3 years after leaving a corporate job where she worked in marketing and administration. She’s a marketing nerd who loves being able to use her brain to help clients between school hours and doctor appointments.
She’s sharing her challenges and the game-changing mindset shifts that helped her thrive in her transition to freelancing. We chat about everything from building confidence to handling a variety of marketing tasks without feeling boxed in.
Kayleigh also credits her business growth to the knowledge and support she received in UDMA School, which helped her leap from $20/hr to $45/hr and charge $1500 for a website revamp project!
