Why Digital Media Marketing?

I started to get interested with surfing the internet since I arrived here in the United States. It wasn’t long ago when all day I found myself surfing the net and getting the grip on the basic internet navigation. I was first fascinated with Social- Networking site (Friendster.com) I met a lot of my childhood friends and managed to keep the friendship alive again. Then I started to purchase some stuffs online and used online banking.
One day while surfing I managed to read about Google advertising programs and business solutions. My interest on interactive marketing strongly developed slowly. I learned everyday where the industry is heading and how it changes a lot of things in one’s life and too many.

After few weeks of searching through NYU website, I finally decided to enroll for Introduction to Interactive Marketing. I believe that certificate programs offer a very fast learning, possible career advancement or expand career options and the most important résumé-enhancement.

Taking this course “Introduction to Interactive Marketing” is just a first step so I can fully understand if I do truly have deep interest on the field of digital media marketing. With all what I learned from this course, I’m pretty much sure that I will definitely continue to enroll on other courses for me to get my Certificate for Digital Media Marketing. Just mainly to leverage myself in looking for new and better career in the future. I am taking the courses to learn as much as I can about online industry and hopefully next year I can start a whole new career with online marketing.

However, my long term plan is to really expand the marketing agency I started 3 years ago with a friend from College in the Philippines. As for now, we cater only for the traditional media for small and medium businesses. If given the chance to be part of an online marketing agency here in the U.S., I will surely do my very best to learn in as much as I can so I can definitely make the best of everything when I get back home.
