Subham Chakraborty’s Journey into Digital Marketing: My First Step Toward Growth

Hey there, Internet! 👋

I’m Subham Chakraborty, and this is my very first story on Medium.

I’m someone who’s endlessly curious about how things work online — how brands grab attention, how people sell without sounding salesy, and how digital tools are quietly shaping the future. While I don’t have a client (yet), I’m on a mission to learn digital marketing for personal development, and I’ve decided to document that journey right here on Medium.

Why?
Because when you learn out loud, you grow faster.
When you share what you learn, you remember it better.
And when you put yourself out there — even imperfectly — you create opportunities you never expected.

So, welcome to Day 1. If you’re on a similar path or thinking about jumping in, I hope my stories help you feel less alone (and a lot more inspired).

Why Digital Marketing? Why Now?

Let’s face it — we’re living in the era of digital everything. Whether it’s a small business selling handmade candles or a solo creator launching an online course, digital marketing is the engine behind their growth.

For me, it started with curiosity.

I’d scroll through Instagram and wonder, “How does this ad know what I was just searching on Google?” Or I’d see a small creator suddenly go viral and think, “What’s their strategy?”

That curiosity turned into action.

I started Googling things like “how to do lead generation,” “what is cold outreach,” and “easy SEO tips for beginners.” The deeper I went, the more fascinated I became. I realized that digital marketing isn’t just for marketers — it’s a superpower for anyone trying to grow, build, or create something meaningful.

What I’m Learning (and Sharing) Every Day

Each day, I’m dedicating time to dive into topics like:

  • How SEO helps content get discovered
  • Why lead generation is all about offering value first
  • What makes a cold outreach email actually work
  • Which free tools can help beginners like me track, plan, and create

It’s overwhelming at times — I won’t lie — but it’s also exciting. Every new concept is like a lightbulb moment.

To make this journey more meaningful (and a little less lonely), I’ll be writing daily or weekly Medium stories. Not as an expert, but as a learner. Someone in the trenches, figuring things out, and sharing notes along the way.

Expect:

  • Real, relatable lessons (yes, even the failures)
  • Bite-sized tips that beginners can actually use
  • Honest reflections about the learning curve

Let’s Grow Together

If you’ve ever thought, “I want to learn digital marketing, but I don’t know where to start” — hey, same. That’s why I’m here.

This is just the beginning of Subham Chakraborty’s journey into digital marketing. I might not have all the answers yet, but I’m showing up every day, and I promise to share what I learn — raw, real, and hopefully helpful.

So if you’re interested in digital marketing, cold outreach, lead generation, or just personal growth in general — follow me here on Medium. Comment, share your journey, or simply say hi. I’d love to connect with fellow learners and explorers.

P.S. Here are two quick tips I picked up this week:

  • SEO Trick: Always add your main keyword (like “digital marketing”) in the title and intro of your content. Google loves it.
