The first thing that I did was to get my marketing degree online. It was mostly because I thought the slip of paper would make me more marketable. I already had a good degree from a respectable university, but I had no formal experience with marketing and advertising. I had never worked in a marketing campaign, and didn’t really understand that much about how the marketplace worked outside of basic economics. A degree seem like just the right way to start my marketing career. After I got that online marketing degree, I immediately started looking for marketing jobs. The marketplace was pretty dry when I first started looking, and it was discouraging at first.
