minus-squareremotelove@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up50·1 year agoMarketing can be done by anyone. :) All it takes is a little passion and excitement when telling someone else about something you enjoy. Professional marketers can bring lots of skills to the table but nothing beats a good old fashioned testimonial.
