Marketing Representative Jobs in Illinois

A Marketing Representative plays a crucial role in the marketing industry by promoting and selling a company's products or services. They are responsible for maintaining a positive relationship with clients, conducting market research, developing marketing strategies, and implementing marketing campaigns. They also identify new markets and customer leads, and present product demos to potential clients. Given their client-facing role, they work towards increasing customer satisfaction and driving business growth.

Important skills for a marketing representative include excellent communication and interpersonal skills, analytical and problem-solving skills, and knowledge of marketing strategies and trends. They should be proficient in customer relationship management (CRM) software and have a strong understanding of social media platforms. A bachelor's degree in marketing, business, or a related field is often required. Certifications that would enhance their portfolio include Certified Professional Marketer (CPM) from the American Marketing Association or a Google Ads certification. Prior to becoming a marketing representative, a person may have roles such as a Marketing Assistant, Sales Representative, or a Public Relations (PR) Assistant.
