I am a very creative person who loves science but has grown tired of typical bench work. I will be completing my PhD this spring and I’d like to break into marketing and/or advertising, with a long-term goal of working for a pharmaceutical company in their marketing department. I have an excellent science background. I have some hand-on experience in marketing, advertising, and PR for groups I volunteer with (college alumni group and sorority), but I have no formal training in marketing and my experience is rather spread out over the years. Any advice on how to break into a marketing/advertising job? I know I’ll have to start at the ground and work my way up and I’m very willing to do it–how do I convince potential employers to take a chance? Thank you for all answers!

In my marketing class, we all have to pick a marketing problem and do research. We have to follow the format on how to conduct the research also. What would be a good topic for me to choose? My topics of interest is finances, future career(s), and sports.

Hi! My daughter is interested in becoming a sales marketing consultant. At least she thinks she is. She is only 13 right now, and I think she heard the term on a TV show or movie. Since we want her to have the knowledge to achieve any goal she has, we figured we would find out what was involved in becoming a sales marketing consultant so she could be prepared…At least until she changes her mind again…This week its a sales marketing consultant, next week it will be a ballerina!

The marketing research department for a computer company used a large city to test market their new product. They found that the demand equation was p = 1296 - 0.12x^2. If the cost equation is C = 830 + 396x, find the number of units that will produce maximum profit.
Haha. That’s the given question. I don’t know anything more than that.

We are a charter school in our second year and want to attract more families on a very tight budget. Any great and inexpensive marketing ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Peter asked:


We are a 2 person start-up company. We have purchased a company with 10 years history, very good credit rating, and at zero employees, in NorthEast USA. Since we are tight on budget and are working as full time consultants ourselves, we are unable to market and expand the company. We were wondering if there are any websites/resources (besides posting an Ad on a jobs website) which we can explore to communicate to potential IT services marketing personnel in the NorthEast USA, to see if we can work on a commission-only basis initially. Once we start serving 2-3 clients and place a few consultants, we can afford to switch to a salary + commission option. This can be a great option for a marketing person who has contacts in the market but would like to work from home or work flex-time.
Thank You!
