Advertising and marketing is a very broad category.
Advertising is the commercial promotion of goods, services, companies and ideas, usually performed by an identified sponsor, and performed through a variety of media. Other components of the promotional mix include publicity, public relations, personal selling, and sales promotion.
Within these disciplines are various specializations like retail strategy, pricing strategy, call center management, outdoor advertising, branding, naming, package design, distribution strategy, data analysis, qualitative research, quantitative research, clipping services, and the list goes on and on.
To get a sense for the breadth of opportunity, you may want to contact the Ad Council (http://www.adcouncil.org/). You might also explore businesses found under the following SIC codes as catalogued by the U.S. Labor Department:
3993 Signs and advertising specialities
7311 Advertising agencies
7312 Outdoor advertising services
7313 Radio, TV, publisher representatives
7319 Advertising, nec
7331 Direct mail advertising services
7389 Business services, nec
8732 Commercial nonphysical research
8742 Management consulting services
8743 Public relations services
Over $500 billion was spent on advertising in 2004, so suffice it to say, there is ample opportunity to earn a living if you're smart, creative, and skilled. Good luck! |
