What would be my career path with a marketing major?

What would be a good career path for Marketing?

  • Answer:

    Personally I think there is a strand of marketing to suit most people, you just need to find the right one to suit you. I'm a geek, I love highly technical challenges and coming up with creative solutions to problems. I also love using computers, so for me the path towards digital marketing was an obvious one. For some of the marketers I work with they look at my role and would find it unbearable, over-technical and frustrating. To each their own I say! Love dealing with people and solving problems? - Account Management Handy with a pencil and very artsy? - Graphic Design Geeky-tech type? - Digital Facebook addict - Social Media Creative problem solver and project manager? - Campaign Manager Data / numbers person? - Analyst I could go on all day, the point is that you need to decide what you enjoy doing and marketing will probably offer a great career path for you.

Marketing is going to get more exciting and marketeers smarter in the future. People don´t like to be "push" into a product, people like to be the agresors, find things, people like to be "pull". Your career path in Marketing will be very different depending upon the industry you consider entering. Choose the right industry -make sure is a growing industry- and stay close to your customers and users: "know your users" Lear as much as you can about data and data analysis: technology is your best friend. Marketing is about scalability: things like BuddyMedia (now Sales Force Marketing Cloud) can change everything you do and the way you connect with your users. Finally, remeber that Marketing is about "Values". Choose to work in something that you strongly believe in and if you are a hard-working person you are going to get results. f
