Everything comes with an expiration date. Your college diploma, your knowledge and experience become dated, even your life won't last forever. Yesterday is gone, and with it all the old rules, processes and techniques. Marketing is evolving at a staggering rate, and if you are not on the steamroller you will be under it. There are hazards and opportunities in this new marketing landscape, continue to develop and learn and you can meet the challenge, and take advantages of the opportunities. The worst thing you can do as a marketer is nothing. Don’t read books and articles on marketing trends, don't attend conferences, seminars and trade shows, don't do your homework, and you will be quickly left behind. Squished.
We now compete in a global market, unlike any in the history of marketing. Knowledge and execution are the keys to the new marketing universe.
If you haven't already, subscribe to some good tech and marketing publications and blogs. But be aware that nobody nowadays is really an expert, we are in unchartered waters, a place where no one has ever been (like star trek). So take information, research it, collaborate it, build your networks, partner with your competitors and keep focused.
I will be at the ad:tech show in NYC next week, my twitter is: @fleming29 if you are there, I would love to meet you, so tweet me and we may be able to get together. Making new connections, and renewing old ones is essential. While your efforts in professional development may not always be super successful, one thing is for sure, you will most certainly fail if you don't even try.
The eMA has online courses, certifications and an amazing conference. And there are other sites and companies and associations that provide excellent opportunities for professional development also. Make a commitment to your professional development with as much excitement and commitment as you do in other areas of your life, it will pay off.
Hope to see you at ad:tech and/or in San Francisco, eM12, eMarketing Conference.
