We were lucky to catch up with Pollethe Ramirez recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Pollethe, really appreciate you joining us to talk about a really relevant, albeit unfortunate topic – layoffs and getting fired. Can you talk to us about your experience and how you overcame being let go?
After being unexpectedly laid off from my previous job, I faced a moment of uncertainty but chose to see it as an opportunity rather than a setback. With years of experience in the marketing field, I realized that this was the perfect time to take control of my career. Drawing on my skills, network, and passion for helping businesses grow, I launched my own marketing agency. The journey hasn’t been easy—there were challenges along the way—but my determination, adaptability, and focus on providing quality services for clients helped me succeed. Today, my agency is doing well and growing, proving that every setback can lead to an even greater comeback.
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Looking back, three key qualities that had the most impact on my journey were resilience, adaptability, and a deep commitment to learning. Resilience allowed me to push through challenges, from facing unexpected setbacks to managing the uncertainty of starting my own business. Adaptability was crucial because the marketing landscape changes constantly, and being able to pivot and embrace new trends or strategies kept me ahead. Lastly, my commitment to learning ensured that I was always growing, staying informed, and improving my craft.
For anyone just starting their journey, my advice is simple: Embrace failure as part of the process, stay flexible, and never stop learning. Invest in yourself by continuously sharpening your skills and seeking out mentors or resources. Challenges will come, but your ability to bounce back, evolve, and stay open to new ideas will define your success.
Who is your ideal client or what sort of characteristics would make someone an ideal client for you?
Our ideal client is an established business that is ready to break away from the traditional marketing mold and embrace innovative, outside-the-box strategies. They understand that real growth comes from pushing beyond the standard boundaries and are open to creative, bold ideas that set them apart in their industry. They’re collaborative, value transparency, and are willing to trust the process, knowing that successful marketing requires a mix of strategy, creativity, and data-driven decisions. These clients are passionate about taking their brand to the next level and are committed to long-term growth and success.
