About Me

Hi, I’m Rahul Raj. I’m a digital marketer and Google Ads specialist based in Manchester, UK, originally from Kottayam, Kerala. I’m also the co-founder of Mogex Ads, where I work with businesses to help them grow using smart, customized digital marketing strategies.

My Journey 

My path to digital marketing wasn’t a straight line. I graduated in 2018 with a degree in mechanical engineering, but I soon realized it wasn’t the right fit for me. I was always more interested in IT and technology, so I started learning Core Java, C++, and Android development. 

While researching laptops online, I came across targeted ads that really caught my attention. That moment sparked my curiosity about digital marketing. I decided to dive deeper into the field and landed an internship at a startup—thanks to my experience editing and posting TikTok videos, which surprisingly helped me get the role. 

That internship made me realize that digital marketing wasn’t just a hobby—it was something I truly enjoyed. I went on to earn a Master’s degree in Digital Marketing from the University of Salford in Manchester, where I gained solid knowledge and skills. 

After graduating, I joined CDA Academy, a digital marketing training program where I worked on real client projects and learned how things work in an agency. I later interned at Quadcubes, a marketing agency, where I gained hands-on experience with live campaigns. Today, I work at T.E.N UK as a Content Creator, helping brands tell their stories through engaging content. 

My Professional Experience 

While studying in the UK, I worked part-time jobs to support myself. I started at Domino’s with no experience in the fast-food industry, but the manager gave me a chance. I quickly picked up important skills like teamwork, problem-solving, and communication—skills that still help me today. 

Later, I interviewed at KFC, a place I always respected. Although they needed someone full-time, the manager believed in me. She said, “You can make a difference in our store.” That gave me the motivation to do my best. I earned several awards, including the Service Shout-Out Award, and eventually became a Guest Experience Leader. 

These jobs weren’t related to marketing, but they taught me discipline, responsibility, and how to work with people—qualities I now apply in my digital marketing career. 

What Drives Me Today 

Today, I focus on Google Ads, SEO, content marketing, and managing WordPress websites. I help businesses grow by using smart, data-driven strategies and clear reporting. I believe in putting in my best effort—whether it’s for a marketing campaign or a part-time job. 

I’m always eager to learn, keep up with industry trends, and find new ways to help brands succeed online. I love working with others who are passionate about growth, and I’m excited to keep building my journey in the digital world.
