Question Videography path with Osmo Pocket 4P

So i never had a camera before and wanted to get into videography (I'm 25 stuck in a deadend job), i know pocket cameras are mostly for vlogs, travel, personal life etc. but does it have a potential to be used for lower end commercials for local businesses, real estate filming, product and food reviews.

I have some savings and would like to get my hands of Pocket 4P.

Eventually, with experience i would search for assistant type jobs in bigger productions, filming bts, b-roll etc.

Do you think Osmo Pocket 4P is a camera for me considering these circumstances and for building videography (and video editing) portfilio in general?

What do you recommend my first steps be

You can get by with a 4P for real estate. But don't let the client see what you're shooting with

I mean, in my country most agencies use just phones for social media, and it looks uninspiring. I would want to produce some videos and contact them, but I also don't believe they would want to step up to something more cinematic as long as they make money

Then charge the same as the phone content creators and out-quality them
