I recently graduated from college with a degree in marketing (minor in sociology). What I am interested in career wise is strategic marketing which includes tasks such as promotional, pricing, distribution strategies, product management, brand management and business planning. Thus far my job experience has been with internships dealing with sales or customer service. The biggest problem I am running into is that every strategic marketing position I can find requires at least some experience in the field. Is my only hope to try and find work in corporate sales and then move over to marketing later or is there a better solution?
Thanks.
