I'm struggling to find my current company's voice

I recently joined a new company and they made a new role for me because they saw my experience is more B2B and the campaigns I ran were focused on executives and operating partners.

I was flattered and was excited to make a few sample campaigns but the CEO didn't like it because most of them were difficult to execute and will take time. I made simpler outreach but then he thinks it's too robotic.

The thing is, in my last company, we used to share white papers and conduct compensation/market studies all the time which made it easier for us to connect with executives because they know we have something concrete to show them.

Now in my current company (a design-service firm), since their normal focus target are Marketing/Creatives lead, their approach is more playful/natural and I'm having difficulty to adapt.

For example, if they send a LI connection request, it will be with a playful message of "If I win this, will you give me 10-min of your time to tell you about ____" OR emails with subject lines like: "you saved my college thesis"

Does anyone have an advice or perhaps articles/books to recommend so I can overcome this? Or is this just not a fit and I should pack and go?

How do you guys handle multiple clients?

So I found a client and recently started with them. The thing is, yung ideal job ko, after one month na walang reply, saka sya nag schedule sakin ng final interview.

It's a bit frustrating on my end kasi nagsisimula pa lang ako sa client ko and they are a solid company, ayoko umalis dito if makapasa ako sa final interview.

Should I try to negotiate something if I pass the final interview? Like as long as I can deliver what they need and support them, I can work on my own time?

Any advice?

NO LONGER JOBLESS! Sharing good vibes for everyone

After 4 months of job hunting, I finally found a job sa OLJ.

I'm on trial period pa lang but I'm very hopeful that everything works out and be on full time soon.

Medyo mababa yung offer pero I just need to establish myself first kasi first time ko lang din mag-freelance.

To everyone still looking, don't lose hope! I had a lot of AI interviews and rejections, until I came along with a team that took time to look over my resume and actually talked to me.

I wrote a Filipino cyberpunk story and I just posted it.

Into the Sun is set in 2087 Manila which is now a corporate city-state.

I only have the Prologue and Chapter 1 posted for now. Please give it a read and I'd appreciate any feedback.
