Hey folks! I’m 21, zero corporate background, and exploring freelancing with HubSpot/CRM systems. Before I invest hundreds of hours, I want to understand what the actual work entails.

If you work with HubSpot or hire freelancers, I’d love your input on 3 things: 1. Income timeline: Is $1k/month in freelance revenue doable in 6 months for a beginner, or does landing clients take much longer? 2. Learning path: What exact HubSpot certification or course should I start with if I know nothing about sales pipelines or marketing ops? 3. Practice work: What does "a random Tuesday" look like for a HubSpot freelancer, and what mock project should I build right now to simulate that?

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to break it down!
