Article by Gail Kenny
It is one of the great new genres of marketing to have been born out of the digital revolution. It's still really in its infancy as degrees and qualifications have only really existed for the last 5 years. That's not to say that there aren't candidates out there who have worked for 5 years or more. I know of one candidate who has a 10 year online career incorporating a lot of online marketing elements yet no formal online qualifications. As the online world moves so quickly, this amount of experience is in itself enough for many employers within digital recruitment.
So if you're looking for a career in online marketing or looking to get ahead in your current online marketing role, you'll need to understand the roles, responsibilities and salaries that are out there. The salaries will vary according to industry, for example you are likely to earn more working in financial services and B2B organisations. Online retail, online travel and pure online players vary depending on the type and size of company. Many corporate clients that I recruit for recognise the need to get good quality candidate on board and as a result are prepared to offer good packages.
Understanding the different online marketing roles
The main focus of online marketing jobs, fall roughly into acquisition and retention or loyalty. Depending on how a team is set up, you may have roles that focus on only one aspect such as PPC Managers, focusing on acquisition or Email Managers tasked with managing retention and loyalty schemes. The majority of online marketing roles cover a broad range of functions that often have dotted lines between acquisition and retention. Some roles also involve looking after part of or the entire website or micro-site, often crossing over with traditional Web Manager roles, but with a less technical focus.
Job title and career expectations within online and digital marketing
From my experience online marketing roles and salaries fall roughly into the following:
� Online assistant
An entry level role and can also be described as; PPC Assistant, SEO Executive, Affiliate Assistant, Digital Assistant, Online Assistant, Online Acquisition Assistant, Email Marketing Assistant.
Salaries anywhere from �15k up to �25k
� Online marketing executive
A step up from an online assistant role that usually involves working closely with the online or offline marketing manager. Other variations may include Digital Marketing Executive, PPC Executive, SEO Executive, Affiliate Executive, Online Advertising Executive, Partnership Executive, Online Acquisition Executive, Email Marketing Executive.
Salaries could range from �25 - �30k
� Online Managers
The role may be responsible for a small team or for a website and an online product. The types of roles also include Digital Marketing Manager, SEO & PPC Manager, Search Manager, Email Manager, Acquisition Manager, Retention & Loyalty Manager.
Salaries at this level tend to vary more, usually ranging from �30 - �50k
� Head marketing
At this level, a role usually becomes more strategically responsible for spending a marketing budget across all online channels and will often manage a team of online marketing executives/managers. Variations include: Head of Online Marketing, Head of Marketing, Head of Digital Marketing, Head of Customer Acquisition, Head of Online Acquisition.
You can expect a salary in the region of between �50- 70k
� Online marketing director
At this level, you are likely to be responsible for P&L for a website(s), online product and will usually oversee all marketing (acquisition and retention). It is not unusual at this level to include offline/multi-channel and customer services responsibility. Variations include Head of Online, Director of Online, Marketing Director, Director of Direct Sales, Online Sales Director.
Salaries vary from �80k +

The Three Major Demographics for Online Marketers (Part 3): The Importance of Marketing to Women
The Three Major Demographics for Online Marketers (Part 3): The Importance of Marketing to Women , online marketing, http://goarticles.com/article/The-Three-Major-Demographics-for-Online-Marketers-Part-3-The-Importance-of-Marketing-to-Women/5162366/,
Article by Maanasi RK
In the third and final installment of the 'Three Major Demographics for Online Marketers' series, the Position² research team looked at the importance of marketing to women and how brands can benefit from one of the largest audiences online. Women, who make up for the majority of users on many popular social networking channels, have established a strong presence on the social web. Snippets from a recent study by ComScore show that:
Time Spent Online
The average time spent online by women is 24.8 hours, compared to men who spend approximately 22.9 hours.
In April 2010, women accounted for 16.3% of the average time spent on various social networks, as against the 11.7% average time spent by men.
Although the number of visits to retail websites were almost the same for men as they were for women, the latter reportedly spent more time actually browsing through these websites.
One of the reasons why we singled out women as one of the key demographics for digital marketers is because of the purchasing power they yield. For instance, sites like Zappos, Groupon (77% female customers), Gilt Groupe (70% women shoppers), Etsy, and Diapers have women as their biggest customers. With the digital space gradually witnessing an increase in female visitors, it was no surprise when social networking newbie, Google+, saw 33% of its traffic driven by women (as of July 14, 2011), a figure that is inching upwards. For brands investing millions of dollars in digital, especially social media marketing, data such as this is proof enough that the female audience needs to have campaigns and marketing strategies that specifically target it. Here are some very convincing statistics that will highlight why online marketers need to leverage girl power:
Facebook and Twitter - Gender Demography
42% million women in the US routinely participate in social media.
A new study conducted by Edison Research and Arbitron, The Social Habit 2011, shows that women account for 52% and 54% of the Facebook and Twitter users respectively.
A demographic analysis conducted in April 2011, for the European market, indicates that females spent significantly more time (5.7 hours) on social networks than males (4.1 hours) across all age groups.
The COO of Facebook, Sheryl Sandberg, revealed that women, on an average, have 8% more Facebook friends than men.
For online marketers looking to reach women, the possibilities are endless. However, before crowding the digital space with gender specific campaigns and marketing messages, it is important for brands to understand: how do women spend their time online and what do they want from the web?
The Social Expressionistas, Alpha Trendsetters and Shopsessives:
A study by AOL and Bovitz Research Group broadly categorizes web-savvy women into these distinct behavioral groups.
Social Expressionistas: These community creators are passionate about spreading the word online and are highly active on social networking sites.
Estee Lauder Facebook Page
Alpha Trendsetters: Take their social lives and careers seriously and are very brand conscious. Our recommendation? The perfect target market for markers of luxury brands that aim their products at women, such as Estee Lauder.
Shopsessives: Believe they are experts in all areas ranging from fashion to health and are shopping online across all product categories. This group highly influences the shopping decisions of their family and friends.
The Discount Seekers:
A study by ChiefMarketer shows that 47% women look for coupons and promotions online; why is that not surprising? The female demographic, which comprises of homemakers, mothers, wives etc, is also empowered financially, with more and more women taking on the role of the breadwinner. However, the coupon searching trait is not so much about saving money, as it is about women who constantly look out for something that intrigues them through the convenience of social media sites. Here's something interesting; a recent Groupon study found that it was attracting the young, single, educated, female crowd with cash to spend. For advertisers and online marketers, this target group is a goldmine.
Groupon Study
The Twitterians:
Twitter, which was largely believed to be used by men, has a growing female user base. According to bloggers Dan Zarella and Darmesh Shaw's analyses, women follow more people, tweet more, and have more followers on an average than men.
Be it discount seekers, coupon collectors or fashion conscious women, the key to getting the most out of your social media marketing campaign is knowing where your target market is most active and what are the popular trends dictating their online activities. In order to get clarity on your market type (in this case, women) we recommend using social media monitoring tools such as Brand Monitor for complete understanding of your target demographic.
Why Marketers Should Reach Moms
With women being the most frequent users of social media, it is not surprising to learn that moms are heavily into social networking. One of the brands to understand this way before the others could catch up is Huggies. The baby products maker jumped onto the social media bandwagon back in 2009, by launching the Circle of Moms social site (also a Facebook page). The webpage, which includes an expert advice column, a mom-to-mom forum with relevant tips, age specific diaper information etc, was a huge hit with moms. That was a few years back; are mothers just as important an audience for online marketers today as they were then? Some reasons why we think marketers should reach moms online:
According to the Moms And Media: 2011 report, a whopping 62% of mothers have a Facebook profile page, while 70% of social networking moms are posting status updates online. This makes mommy "status updaters" an increasingly important part of the continuum of marketing communications.
Many brands perceive social-savvy moms as an important demographic because they not just share content, but also listen.
When compared to dads, moms are 40% more likely to follow a brand on social media channels.
Moms are still primary budgeters and spenders in the household, which makes them VIPs to marketers.
That was the 'why' of reaching mothers in the digital space; Let us now look at the 'how to', the understanding of which comes naturally to brands that know precisely what the moms are doing and what they expect from online marketers.
Identify the power moms: These women communicate with their families and friends through various social networking channels as well as other mom-specific social networks. YoCrunch Yogurt Facebook PageThey are online paying bills, planning family vacations and downloading coupons.
Design Informative Ads: According to an About.com survey featured in eMarketer, 51% of moms said "ads that provide detailed information about how I can use a product" grab their attention. For instance, YoCrunch Yogurt's integrated social media campaign that targets mothers also features a dedicated discussion space on the brand's redesigned Facebook page that invites moms seeking product related information to chat with each other and with the brand.
Tell a Story: Moms like stories, and social media provides the perfect platform for brands to disguise their marketing messages in the form of interesting stories. This approach, we believe, is much better than simply 'selling' something online.
Engagement is the Answer: Marketing messages without focus on engagement are like one way traffic. Mothers today expect a dialogue with the brand online; the key here is to encourage your customers for their opinions, complaints and appreciations just the way P&G is planning to do with its 'Life Well Lived' campaign on BlogHer.
Marketing to Women: Popular Myths
Whether it is moms or women in general, the stereotypical image about this gender can sometimes lead to the creation of myths that could result in less-than-perfect marketing messages. Here's a compilation of some typical myths on how to supposedly market to female customers online:
Myth#1: Women are technology shy: The fact? More women own smartphones than men and are more reliant and comfortable with technology than they were a few years ago. According to recent studies, 75% of women disagreed with the statement "men are more comfortable with tech than women".
Myth#2: All women are moms: Most marketers simply assume that all women are moms. Designing online or offline campaigns based on this assumption may not yield the desired results. Why? Because they are not targeting the specific demographic. As quoted by the She-conomy blog "All moms are women, but not all women are moms."
Myth#3: Women only buy the girly stuff: Going by this belief means missing out on a huge customer base. The female customer's shopping list in current times comprises of more than just lipstick and high-heels. According to the newly released "What Women Want From the Web Report," Summer 2010, by Unicast, while women do look for beauty and fashion related products online, around 48% are researching travel destinations, and 59% are browsing for gaming and entertainment products. Our take on this? Women have moved beyond the 'I love pink and frilly' phase.
Myth#4: It's all about emotions: While it is true that women are drawn to online campaigns that attempt to make an emotional connection, there's a flipside to overusing the 'emotion card'. When Hoover vacuums launched their 'Clean Freaks Rejoice' campaign on YouTube, the company's aim was to emotionally connect with women who were usually tasked with the 'after party' cleaning up. However, the brand's display of women as 'neurotic' and 'anxious' did not go down well with the female demographic.
Conclusion
Although there is a significant amount of stereotyping that occurs around women's interests, especially assumptions that restrict women's interests to fashion, cooking or childcare, this appears to be gradually changing. The modern marketer understands that female customers are no longer technology shy and are among the biggest buyers of smartphones and other gadgets. Online marketers targeting tech-savvy women should consider designing more apps that cater to the lifestyles of today's female shoppers.
While there are several myths on how to market to women online, more and more marketers are broadening their horizons and are bold enough to design social media campaigns which, although are gender specific, are unconventional in several ways. Social media campaigns these days are detailed, interactive and seek to engage the specific target audience, who in this case, are women. Women, especially mothers, are interested in having on-going relationships with brands they can trust and ones that understand their needs. It is true that moms make up for a huge demographic online; however, brands need to keep in mind the fact that simply churning out mom-specific campaigns could mean missing out on other female customers, who may not be necessarily mothers, but nevertheless have equal maturity and financial stability. We believe that the modern woman is not your typical customer and most often than not prompts brands to put their thinking caps on; but what we also know is that coupon collecting, the inclination to shop online, and brand loyalty are behavioral traits that have been typical of the female demographic and will continue to be an integral part of online marketing campaigns. Meanwhile, what we are also eager to see is if the female demographic accepts Google+ with the same enthusiasm as they have for Facebook or Twitter. If Google+'s current popularity with the fairer sex continues, this could be a viable platform for online marketers looking to target women.
With this we conclude our three part series on the most important demographics online. Although the three demographics we mentioned, i.e. youth, baby boomers and women, make up for your typical customer base online, these three big subgroups have unique and specific needs and expectations from brands. Take a look at our previous posts on Marketing to the YouTube Generation and Marketing to Baby Boomers for more information.

Online Marketing Strategic Business Design

Article by Steve Colwell
Online Marketing Strategic Business Design
Clearly, you won't create affiliates advertising earnings if you can not promote affiliated merchandise. Considering my personal extensive encounters, there are several reasons why you can not advertise much more affiliated merchandise and create large affiliated wages.
You will unhide the top 14 reasons why big earnings are finished in this article.
You will ascertain realistic problems for the online marketing venture vendors and why they failed in thier online marketing organization. Now, I am going to give you the top 14 reasons why you can't advertise more associate mechandise as well as create large affiliates earnings in the home-based online marketing trade.
If you are asking yourself why you failed and could not create large online marketing earnings with your online marketing organization, I would love for you to definitely unearth the top reasons. The genuine online marketing strategic company plan and ventures design. I have spoken with many online marketing venture owners and I found that dozens of them don't have their own online marketing strategic enterprise plan or vending plan.
Actually No Venture Design.
Individually, I highly believe that planning is one of the most considerable steps in your online marketing venture. You'll want to set up your personal objectives and ideas. Without planning, you're costing yourself income and time as well as remodel tasks to assemble, develop and as well as run the actual online marketing ventures. Lack of will as well as an operational vending research. Poor vending research shows you have no idea regarding your prospects inside your markets and you have absolutely no understanding to solve their problems.
Additionally, you don't understand the precise needs inside your marketplace. All you have to finish during the marketing research is to find out the exact issue and answer what the folks are looking for in that marketplace. There are plenty of methods to execute the most helpful vending research on the web at this time. One of the mainly effective approaches would be to become involved within the enthusiastic and well-known chat boards.
Advertise Just One Partner Product At A Time?
When you are the online marketing business owner, your main task would be to create quality content on the partner products for those who need those items. It's not a good inkling to sell only one partner product at any given time for the marketplace. Nevertheless, vending an excessive amount of partner products is not a good understanding either. There are no success guidelines for this. You need to make sure and monitor the outcomes on your own. My personal experiences make known that the general rule for a
number of partner products and programs, which you should advertise, is between Three and Ten at a time.
Choosing the highly profitable partner products may be the very first important action that you take.. You can choose individual profitable partner products when you have helpful research inside your marketplace and merchandise. There are plenty of methods revealing you to ways on how to pick your prime profitable partner products. All you've got to do would be to steer clear of the rip-off programs on the internet.
Insufficient Quality Content.
As we know that the high quality submissions are the king. All you've got to do is to provide is top quality content for each partner products for your individual offer. The high quality content could be: Your unbiased word of mouth, hot new information, great articles related to the product as well as up-to-date info for that item.
Create Great Relationships With Retailers.
Working with the actual merchants is a completely good idea and if you should start marketing thier affiliate products and programs. You are able to ask for, and build relationships with retailers or even negotiate the affiliate marketing payment method together with your retailers.
Lack Of A High Quality Opt-In List.
The actual opt-in checklist is an essential
resource with regard to affiliate marketing business owners. With no list, you are wasting your money and time with regard to selling affiliate products. Think about it this way! An affiliate drives people to a merchants website. In the event that those site visitors buy something, you're going to get an affiliate commission. In the event that there aren't any buys, you won't get a commission. With this particular situation, it is a good idea in regard to affiliate marketing business owners in order to capture the visitors info to be able to market additional affiliate products later on. With capturing the guests info, your own opportunities to earn much more affiliate marketing commissions are opened up and elevated.
Distributing Additional Affiliate Products Later On In The Future
Insufficient strong back-end marketing. The actual powerful back-end marketing is one of the most helpful methods for online marketing entrepreneurs to sell more affiliated products and programs to the current buyers or subscribers. An important thing to remember on the road to achievement with regard to back-end promotion is to concentrate on both the existing buyers/subscribers as well as brand new prospective buyers.
Lack of a well-known reputation in the marketplace.
Status is very crucial for your creditability and dependability. All you've got to do is: advertising yourself repeatedly in the marketplace and become aware of exactly what affiliate products and programs you are going to sell. Not using the affiliates products will harm your status. Lack of regularity in the organization and marketplace. I'd like to say that the consistency in your venture and marketplace is among the most important components for your extreme achievement in the long-term. You need to become familiar
with your marketplace, catch-up on brand new knowledge and stay with your organization in the long run. With this feeling, you are able to become a star amongst your competition along with brand new knowledge. Additionally, you can enhance continuously your home based online marketing venture all the time and stay on top inside your market.
Rely On One Online Marketing Technique?
Obviously, you can't rely on 1 online marketing technique. My utmost recommendation would be to create several channels associated with revenue through several online marketing methods. Distinctive strategies could be: Article marketing, email marketing, internet marketing, weblog online marketing, seo, pay-per-click marketing as well as sign up for venture partnerships.
Don't Know Ways To Get Points Carried Across Successfully.
This is probably the most crucial issue for online marketing venture owners. There's a lot of duties for those online marketing capitalists to build highly lucrative & valuable campaigns in the online marketing venture. Those tasks require a great deal of time and effort. Showing priority for, as well as scheduling jobs are 2 fundamental methods to help you to get things done! Insufficient self-improvement. There is no doubt that you're the very finest resource in our organization. All you have to do is to improve your self repeatedly. I am sure that you are the only person who can figure out which business in which you desire to be in later on. Without self-improvement, it's very hard to create your own highly lucrative
Succeed From Home Online Marketing Venture.

Online Marketing Strategic Business Design
Clearly, you won't create affiliates advertising earnings if you can not promote affiliated merchandise. Considering my personal extensive encounters, there are several reasons why you can not advertise much more affiliated merchandise and create large affiliated wages.
You will unhide the top 14 reasons why big earnings are finished in this article.
You will ascertain realistic problems for the online marketing venture vendors and why they failed in thier online marketing organization. Now, I am going to give you the top 14 reasons why you can't advertise more associate mechandise as well as create large affiliates earnings in the home-based online marketing trade.
If you are asking yourself why you failed and could not create large online marketing earnings with your online marketing organization, I would love for you to definitely unearth the top reasons. The genuine online marketing strategic company plan and ventures design. I have spoken with many online marketing venture owners and I found that dozens of them don't have their own online marketing strategic enterprise plan or vending plan.
Actually No Venture Design.
Individually, I highly believe that planning is one of the most considerable steps in your online marketing venture. You'll want to set up your personal objectives and ideas. Without planning, you're costing yourself income and time as well as remodel tasks to assemble, develop and as well as run the actual online marketing ventures. Lack of will as well as an operational vending research. Poor vending research shows you have no idea regarding your prospects inside your markets and you have absolutely no understanding to solve their problems.
Additionally, you don't understand the precise needs inside your marketplace. All you have to finish during the marketing research is to find out the exact issue and answer what the folks are looking for in that marketplace. There are plenty of methods to execute the most helpful vending research on the web at this time. One of the mainly effective approaches would be to become involved within the enthusiastic and well-known chat boards.
Advertise Just One Partner Product At A Time?
When you are the online marketing business owner, your main task would be to create quality content on the partner products for those who need those items. It's not a good inkling to sell only one partner product at any given time for the marketplace. Nevertheless, vending an excessive amount of partner products is not a good understanding either. There are no success guidelines for this. You need to make sure and monitor the outcomes on your own. My personal experiences make known that the general rule for a
number of partner products and programs, which you should advertise, is between Three and Ten at a time.
Choosing the highly profitable partner products may be the very first important action that you take.. You can choose individual profitable partner products when you have helpful research inside your marketplace and merchandise. There are plenty of methods revealing you to ways on how to pick your prime profitable partner products. All you've got to do would be to steer clear of the rip-off programs on the internet.
Insufficient Quality Content.
As we know that the high quality submissions are the king. All you've got to do is to provide is top quality content for each partner products for your individual offer. The high quality content could be: Your unbiased word of mouth, hot new information, great articles related to the product as well as up-to-date info for that item.
Create Great Relationships With Retailers.
Working with the actual merchants is a completely good idea and if you should start marketing thier affiliate products and programs. You are able to ask for, and build relationships with retailers or even negotiate the affiliate marketing payment method together with your retailers.
Lack Of A High Quality Opt-In List.
The actual opt-in checklist is an essential
resource with regard to affiliate marketing business owners. With no list, you are wasting your money and time with regard to selling affiliate products. Think about it this way! An affiliate drives people to a merchants website. In the event that those site visitors buy something, you're going to get an affiliate commission. In the event that there aren't any buys, you won't get a commission. With this particular situation, it is a good idea in regard to affiliate marketing business owners in order to capture the visitors info to be able to market additional affiliate products later on. With capturing the guests info, your own opportunities to earn much more affiliate marketing commissions are opened up and elevated.
Distributing Additional Affiliate Products Later On In The Future
Insufficient strong back-end marketing. The actual powerful back-end marketing is one of the most helpful methods for online marketing entrepreneurs to sell more affiliated products and programs to the current buyers or subscribers. An important thing to remember on the road to achievement with regard to back-end promotion is to concentrate on both the existing buyers/subscribers as well as brand new prospective buyers.
Lack of a well-known reputation in the marketplace.
Status is very crucial for your creditability and dependability. All you've got to do is: advertising yourself repeatedly in the marketplace and become aware of exactly what affiliate products and programs you are going to sell. Not using the affiliates products will harm your status. Lack of regularity in the organization and marketplace. I'd like to say that the consistency in your venture and marketplace is among the most important components for your extreme achievement in the long-term. You need to become familiar
with your marketplace, catch-up on brand new knowledge and stay with your organization in the long run. With this feeling, you are able to become a star amongst your competition along with brand new knowledge. Additionally, you can enhance continuously your home based online marketing venture all the time and stay on top inside your market.
Rely On One Online Marketing Technique?
Obviously, you can't rely on 1 online marketing technique. My utmost recommendation would be to create several channels associated with revenue through several online marketing methods. Distinctive strategies could be: Article marketing, email marketing, internet marketing, weblog online marketing, seo, pay-per-click marketing as well as sign up for venture partnerships.
Don't Know Ways To Get Points Carried Across Successfully.
This is probably the most crucial issue for online marketing venture owners. There's a lot of duties for those online marketing capitalists to build highly lucrative & valuable campaigns in the online marketing venture. Those tasks require a great deal of time and effort. Showing priority for, as well as scheduling jobs are 2 fundamental methods to help you to get things done! Insufficient self-improvement. There is no doubt that you're the very finest resource in our organization. All you have to do is to improve your self repeatedly. I am sure that you are the only person who can figure out which business in which you desire to be in later on. Without self-improvement, it's very hard to create your own highly lucrative
Succeed From Home Online Marketing Venture.
Quit prematurely. The majority of new associate entrepreneurs are not prepared to get wealthy along with promoting associate products and programs immediately or temporary. My encounters reveal that the actual online marketing establishment is not a get-rich-quick scheme. You need to be determined, motivated and patient for your triumph in the future.

Why Fret About Sophisticated Internet Marketing
Many people learn the basics of internet marketing and then stop. They figure they are doing well right where they are so there is not any reason to progress. Why mess with a nice thing.
There are lots of reasons why you need to know as much about online marketing as you can.
