My Story: From Content Writer to Digital Marketing Consultant in India

Everything is digital today. That’s so new, refreshing and innovative in its own way, isn’t it? The traditional way of putting yourself in office, see and meet clients, smile fake and shake hands for no reasons at all.

Well, not anymore, I guess. Digitalization is the new normal and the fact that it’s an accepted and universal reality now, there is a huge opportunity in going digital, be it your business or freelancing or brick and mortar.

If you can’t go online, you are powerless and soon going to extinct. One such powerful and up-and-coming career is digital marketing consultant aka content marketing expert and digital marketer. Different countries, different nomenclature.

When I started content writing during my college, I was writing in my personal diary, the thoughts and insights about human, albeit the philosophy and psychology put altogether on my white lined pages, offline. I have 10 filled diaries; 365*10 = 3650 Pages. Man, had I written it online or on any blogs of my own, I would be a successful blogger earning good from Google Adsense or from affiliate marketing.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t so I started writing on medium and on my personal blog bhaviksarkhedi.com/blog where I write to ‘BE and GO Digital’, trying to compensate for the mistakes I did. Better late than never. I have started getting followers. People know me as a writer, copywriter, content writer, storyteller and as I already mentioned, going digital has been the key.

I soon myself got a professional photo to get it on featured online blogs.

Cutting long story very short, within a span of 4 years, I wrote for Yourstory, Entrepreneur, Huffington Post, Inc42, Techinasia, Clutch.co, Goodfirms, e27, and 35+ different popular blogs (pro bono and paid).

The recognition helped me gained access in the ‘Digital World of Content’ and so I received my Google Knowledge Panel Verified. You can just type ‘Bhavik Sarkhedi’ or ‘Best Content Writers in the World’

Not until so long, my profile for 6 damn full years was of ‘Content Writer’ only but because of Write Right, Estorytellers, Taletel, DadofAd, KalamKagaz I gained fame for ‘Good Legit Digital Marketer’. Know more about everything here: www.linktr.ee/the_weak_point_dealer

Since Writing helped me become a Digital Marketing Consultant or I would prefer to be called as Content Consultant, I want to confess this that not just SEO or Paid Marketing, would give you this but a touch and sincere touch of writing online and offline would help.

The ok-ok doing website of 2014 is now one of the highest rated and reviewed content writing agency in India. When I mean reviewed, those are legit reviews, have a peak here: g.page/writeitright and g.page/sarkhedibhavik

The journey seems short but when you go through the timeline it actually is longer than expected because today I see so many ‘So-Called Marketers’ (long hahahaha) who hasn’t written a single word, their blog sucks, don’t know proper SEO are giving a hard time to audience today with ‘Fake Courses’ and ‘Paid Trainings’.

Paid marketing in being a digital marketing consultant comes handy when you have already attained some popularity; just as, PPC comes into effect when organic SEO is really good.

The Trade-mark ‘Write Right’ and ‘Taletel’ under my name Bhavik Sarkhedi after 7 long years today is nothing but ‘Online Writing’ and I would say ‘Consistent Writing’.

There are myriads of blogs saying ‘How to Become a Content Consultant or Digital Marketers’ are partially nothing but the journey of an individual from a writer, SEO executive, PPC expert to Digital Marketing Expert.

Call yourself what you want but start from somewhere related or you will go lost in the digital world as they say and will be on page 2 of Google.
