So true – and I think the argument goes both ways – it is increasingly difficult to work in digital marketing without learning to code! Growth hacking for example requires the ability to analyze, code and write intriguing content!
I hate coding, I prefer write an essay than a code. But, I used to code and still hating it..
A related anecdote: I’m a freelancer. I recently started writing, and within 3 or 4 blog posts I already had 2 people contact me asking if I was available for work.
So…freelancers should write, too. Best investment in marketing I’ve made thus far!
Writing is essential! The practice of writing helps me keep my thoughts organized, which are otherwise a complete and utter mess.
