The Right Sales or Marketing Person

If you love investigating customer needs, educating them about products or services, and selling those products and services, you're most likely good at your job. Register with C-People, and we can put you into one of the following specialties:

Advertising Manager: Where the advertising function is contracted out to an agency, the advertising manager serves as liaison between the firm and the agency. As such, he or she advises the company directors on where, when, and what type of advertising can be most effective and can have the greatest impact on profits. C-People is constantly on the lookout to fill employers' needs not only for managers but also for people to staff the agencies: account executives, media directors, creative directors, art directors, promotions managers, and associated staff.

Marketing Manager: Developing the firm's marketing strategy in detail and identifying potential markets, the marketing manager generally functions at the level of executive vice president, just above the sales manager. Product development managers and market research managers under his direction estimate demand for products and services, keep track of competitor activities, and help him develop pricing strategy. C-People's client firms could be looking to fill any one of these positions.

Public Relations Manager: In this position, you cover a number of bases, most of them having to do with the written word. You handle crises through disseminating news releases, supplement advertising and promotions efforts, work with human resources in producing information media for the workforce, assist financial managers in producing company reports, draft speeches for company executives, host visits by the press, oversee company archives, respond to requests for information, and supervise special events.

Sales Manager: Directing the firm's sales program, sales managers range from regional and local managers to executive vice presidents for sales. As the sales force under their guidance is the company's interface with the customer, out where “the rubber meets the road,” sales managers work not only to help those sales people and make them more productive, they are also collecting customer feedback useful in resetting company directions and maximizing profits.
