From Fired Twice to Fully Booked

Jared Goodman was fired twice from corporate social media roles before he built his own agency.

Jared Goodman grew up a neurodivergent kid obsessed with cameras, music and editing photos before he ever had a job title for it. He spent five years at a corporate social media role before being let go, then was let go again from a second corporate job. Both firings traced back to a rigid corporate structure that did not suit how his neurodivergent brain worked. After the second firing he decided on the spot to stop chasing corporate jobs and build his own business instead. He called people he knew for work, landed one contract, then built out his LinkedIn, Instagram and a website to grow from there. A year into it, Jared has generated 100,000 dollars in gross profit running his business alone.

He is testing AI search for client acquisition, trying to get recommended when people ask for social media help.
