Experience has taught me that marketing news and media news are worth reading if you are in the advertising field. I have learned more by reading about top-level executives in these fields than I ever earned in college. Don’t get me wrong, education is important, but practical knowledge is essential.

By reading online marketing news and online media news, I see what these people, who are at the top of their field, did to be effective in their career. Their experiences are leaning experiences for me as one day I want to be in a position of power in an advertising or media company.

I am not so naive to think that my experiences will in any match their experiences in the field as I know the advertising and media fields constantly change. I am keeping up with all of these changes by reading the news every morning before heading off to work. You never know what you will fin that can be useful today, or in the future.

One day I will be a Senior Marketing VP, and I will not stop reading the news even then. Staying stagnate in your career is easy when you are complacent, and not willing to learn new things. While I don’t have the money yet to further my education, I am learning as much as I can for free online by downloading white papers.,etc, anything I can to learn more about the business.
