Salary and Benefits?

Do you feel your employer properly prepared you for your job? Explain.

If someone wanted to go about getting a job similar to yours, what would you recommend for him or her to do?
I would recommended l;earning the basics first about my industry. I would try to get information off the web or go to a local bookstore and purchase items on the subject of internet marketing. I would also try to attend online webinars as well as maybe talk to outside bloggers, authors about the industry.

What skills do you think a person should have if they want to pursue a position like yours?
I would mostly say technical skills. You have to be very familiar with computers and how to best use them to achieve your business goals. Everything kinda is based on the approach of online marketing. If you do not have the technical skills to make your marketing plan come to fruition, you will have no idea on where to start in the first-place.
