Skilled marketing professionals are critical to an organization's success. From marketing analytics, digital marketing, search engine optimization, brand management, paid advertising, social media and marketing research, marketers are charged with generating interest in a product or service.

And considering the various ways that consumers interact with marketing—social, print, digital or promotions—it should come as no surprise that employment of advertising and marketing managers is projected to grow 6 percent through 2029.
