Pretty much.
I like hacking away. Writing code, configuring stuff, figuring out obscure bugs. I reached a point as a fullstack dev where I could build a complete app, deploy it and maintain it.
But now I feel like I need to market myself. I also hate it.
I worked with someone who was a lot less technical than me. Would get stuck for days on bugs I would fix in 15 minutes by just doing a few googles searches. What he was better at is marketing. He paid someone to write his resume. Paid someone to "reimagine" his linked in.
He landed a 50% increase by moving companies.
I guess paying someone to improve your resume and linkedin is a good idea. Starting a blog, having social accounts, etc. also seems like something one should to do to maximize their earning potential.
