That is why they speak of the T-shaped marketer.

With marketing, you have to work across channels. In other words, your paid ads affect your landing pages. Your email marketing affects your conversions. Your landing pages affect your paid ads. Your SEO affects your conversion optimization. Your SEO also affects your social media marketing and vice versa
Break down the path and figure out what you need to do to get there. Digital Marketing is one way that you can work for a company and do it remotely. Learn any of these skills and you can be working remotely for a company while still being able to do your own thing if you wanted to.
