I Would Love To Learn More About Internet Marketing And Flash Design
I work for a S.E.O. firm in Chicago. Most people would kill for a job like this, but of course, it wasn’t in my five-year plan . Usually the plans you have growing up never pan out, some do, but in my case, they definitely didn’t. As a child I grew up with the delusions of grandeur, wanting to be the best soccer player ever, or the best lawyer ever . I wanted to be a professional soccer player. I actually made it all the way to the Olympic Development team, but that is as far as I went. That was my unrealistic goal. My realistic goal was to become a lawyer. I wanted to be the Defense Attorney for the city of Marquette Michigan. Again, my mother interceded, saying that I didn’t have it in me to be a lawyer, all lawyers are blood sucking jerks and I am too sweet and kind to become one . My mother is my best friend so I took everything she said to heart , hence me working for a Marketing Online firm. My mother told me that I should be a journalist, so I took a journalism class in college. I obliged her wishes, took the class, and ended up having a piece of mine on bio-medical research published, but it was too late, I didn’t have the desire to become a journalist . I took an intro to marketing, and met a person who ended up changing my outlook on my career path. He took me under his wing, showed me all there was to know about marketing, and eventually became one of my greatest friends . Unfortunately, he didn’t have enough pull to get me into the industry I wanted so I ended up working in Web Development. I resent him for that, because obviously I ended up in PPC Search Engine. I think it was a great career move on my part, quitting my job as a financial analyst to become a market analyst for a S.E.O. company . The only problem is that I wish I knew more about Web Development before coming into the position, I believe that would have made this job a lot more appealing to me, and I most likely would be higher up right now had I had prior knowledge of the subject . S.E.O., Sponsored Links and Web Development encompass many different levels of marketing, including posting content, researching, analyzing, and blogging .
I love the research and analytical part of my job, although those tasks are few and far between. I basically do the S.E.O. with posting blogs and content to various websites. I still wonder what my life would be like right now if I were to have kept on the path of becoming a lawyer. Right now is especially hard because I know that I would be graduating law school this month and probably would already be in with a city . Instead of being an Assistant District Attorney, I am a market analyst at a S.E.O. firm. I could still go to law school; I just don’t think that I have enough knowledge pertaining to law to even consider taking the LSAT. I know that I could study, but I honestly do not have time. I wish I did, because I know that once I put my mind to something I am great at what I do. Take soccer for an example. I think if I hadn’t lost the drive to go pro my junior year of college, I would have made it. All of my college and Olympic coaches said that I had the potential to be great in the professional soccer world . I can’t quite pinpoint why I realized soccer wasn’t for me . After twenty one years of playing soccer, almost ten of those years on a highly competitive bases, I realized that I just didn’t want to do it anymore, I played for a year and a half after that but everyone noticed the change in my game . I didn’t have a normal childhood, I was traveling every summer until I was sixteen with the national softball team, and every fall I played travel soccer and ran cross-country, every spring I played soccer, softball and ran track for my high school. I begged my parent’s for gymnastics, I loved the endurance and agility of the sport and it was all about me, which I loved as well . When I turned sixteen I was offered a spot on the Olympic Development team and dropped gymnastics like an old habit . Long story short, this is how I ended up working as a market analyst for a S.E.O. firm that deals with Sponsored Links and Web Development.
