How To Become A Media Buyer (No Degree)

from The Sam Horton Podcast · host Sam Horton

In this episode, I share my journey from working in sales to becoming a self-taught media buyer and eventually running my own marketing business. I break down the exact steps I took, from investing in online courses and completing unpaid internships to landing my first freelance clients, agency roles, and ultimately going full-time on my own. I also explain why media buying remains a valuable career in 2026, how AI is changing the industry, and offer practical advice for anyone looking to break into digital marketing or paid advertising.
