I want to be recognised – but without stepping on toes?

2010-08-30

I used to be an email marketing Account manager for 4 years, as such I have immense knowledge strategy & experience in sending all types of email campaigns.

The problem i have is that I dont hold any official marketing qualifications and generally get overlooked for email marketing exec roles as a result. I end up being in roles that are part sales/part marketing.

In my current job I’ve brought in new email marketing ideas, and started the company off with email campaigns with immense success.
Because of this other departments now want a piece of the action. But rather than me doing the campaigns for them, they are handing all responsibility to marketing manager. Im not happy.

Will it be wrong thing to ask to be in charge of all email marketing in the company?

How do I get started in email marketing?

2010-07-27

I’ve had a few websites for awhile now. I’ve done the yahoo sponsor search, google adwords, and everything else out there. After learning about email marketing I believe I could have my best sucess with this. I’m not trying to sell anything I’m just trying to get people to join my social network website (writers). So what I need to know is how do I get started? Where do I find email lists? What’s that best free program I can use to send bulk emails? I’m not trying to invest any money in this so I need to know free ways to do this (I know about the pay ways). So if anybody knows anything please let me know because I need my website to grow faster.

How can one start a career in marketing research?

2010-02-02

I have a Bachelor’s Degree with a concentration in Marketing. I am interested in getting into a career in the market research industry, however I am having difficulty finding jobs in this field. Most jobs for marketing majors seem to be in sales. I do not feel that I have the right personality and strengths to be successfu in sales. I am more of an analytical, detailed, organized person who prefers woking with data and solving problems. I have looked on the major job search sites, but there are not many opportunities for entry-level candidates. I have researched companies who specialize in market research in my area, and I have been on two interviews, but no job offer.

Should I start to look in another direction? What type of work could be a good stepping stone for somebody who wants to get into marketing research? The job interviews I had with the market research companies were entry-level posiitons involving clerical type work.Should I look for clerical positions for experience?

What kind of positions could I get in a career in Marketing?

2009-12-23

Whats the job title, and what I would be doing?
I know there are different areas in which marketing covers, such as: research, analysis, creative department, and so on. I would love for someone to elaborate on these, and more, areas in which marketing covers. What is the income of someone in the creative department. I would love to have some involvement in the creative process/ advertising sector or the production process. I know that people with certain personalities would do better in certain fields in marketing, but is it possible to learn the skills needed to excel in these areas?

Also, what does a “marketing agent” do?
