In movies, tv shows, commercials, I notice it everywhere. There are those obvious Apple commercials when they’re showing a new product, such as iPad 2 (won’t be surprised if they already have a 3). But then there’s a disturbing amount of hidden ads. Just watch any tv commercial that shows a computer or website, notice how macbooks are shown, and the Safari browser is always shown. I do notice Windows does it a bit (usually older advertisements), but a lot less frequently.

I know they pay for "product placement" in movies and such, but why do they want to paste the Apple brand on all media?

I know how to use search engines etc. and I applied for at lesat 4 or 5 jobs on Monster.com yesterday. This afternoon I received two responses via my email. I called both back and neither companies are offering the jobs to non-local applicants. Their job advertisements did not specify this. I feel as though this is going to be a trend. How can I find jobs that will accept and potentially hire applicants who are out of state and looking to move. I do not have the financial base to just move somewhere and then look for a job.

STATS:

DEGREE: Bachelors of Science in Speech and Communication with an option in Communication Studies and a minor in Studio Art, 2007

CURRENT JOB: Business Development Assistant at an engineering firm

LOOKING FOR: BD or Marketing job preferrably in an art or design related firm… also not averse to a HR or Reception

EXPERIENCE: a little over 1 yr. including summer work/internship at a real estate firm during college
P.S.
A good point the first respondent has made. I’m also not against travelling to interview. If I’m confident in myself and my skills, I am willing to drive six hours for an interview, or even take a train. I feel like this also really speaks of a persons character: will work to get something they really want… and I will!

Hi everyone,

I am a 23 year old who just graduated from college and tried the job market,and I cannot see myself working for somebody else for the rest of my life. I have big dreams and ambitions and I believe I can do better than what I am doing. I have an internet website in mind, something for free.. Basicallly my plan is that people will use it and when it becomes popular, I will have advertisements on it and that’s how I will make my money.

I would like to know what it takes (people, resources, money etc) to create a networking website (this is not like facebook but similar in design) Also the website will include a refined search engine that matches keywords..

And my second question is : how do I register my idea so it become mine legally ?

Does anyone know of a good job search engine besides careerbuilder, monster, indeed, bestjobsusa, or linkup that doesn’t give you all the advertisements and phony jobs? I know there will still be some on there because there always is. I’m a recent college graduate and looking for a job in marketing and that’s what the phony ads are always aimed at! Thanks for any help on great sites!

Does anyone know of a website that explains the placement of advertisements in magazines or does anyone have any information they could give me? I need to know the prestige of placing advertisements on the inside front cover, back cover, front of magazine, middle of magazine, back of magazine or any other significant location of advertisements in magazines.

My partner and I have been working for the past year and a half developing a marketing system to help promote local businesses in a certain niche market (sorry wont say what the niche is). But when we go to pitch our service we are running into problems. First this is what we do:

Basically we have developed a website much akin yellow pages which only caters towards this niche, over the past year and a half we have become highly optimized for almost every category in the niche ranking in the top 3 spots in Google Yahoo and Bing (MSN). (outranking even yellowpages, yelp, yellowbook and others)

However we are not only offering a subscription into the directory (which gives the clients more exposure). We build each client a website, they get to choose their domain name, we create a custom classified advertisements to use, and we promote their businesses through Google Adwords, (this is done by having adwords drop the click through onto their listing page on our site.) In addition we give the clients access to a backend where they can track how many impressions their classified ads recieve, how many clickthroughs to their website, and a host of other statistical tools.

This is above and beyond yellowpages, in fact many clients we talk to say they spend 150-300 a month on yellowpages and recieve NO results.

We have a few clients who are very satisfied with the service, and it has helped them land additional business. In fact for most of our clients, only 1 job from a lead covers a months charge or more, and we only charge /mo promotional rate for 6 months then it goes to /mo from there.

Now here is the problem we face when trying to get new clients…. Many of you may have been cold called and pitched by some internet search engine optimization company that promises that they can get you on the front page of Google for a fee.. Most of those companies are shady and provide no results. For some reason when we start talking to people this is what they think we are doing… when in fact this is NOT what we are doing at all!

I’m kind of at a how I can effectively market our service without being confused as one of these shady businesses. Since this is not what we are doing.

My dating site www.ladkaaladki.com is 100% free and I do not want people to pay for using the site, but can I depend upon only advertisements? Even so, How do I get ads and start earning? Also how do I advertise my own website to increase traffic?

Okay so on my web site I am marketing a search engine. The page is just a logo, search engine and 3 ads; a banner and two small advertisements with google adsense. So here is my problem: I want each advertisement to be random, where as right now they are all the same but contain the same words (ie: on word in my header is "cross", so almost all of the advertisements the advertisements are "ross book store, ross skiing, cross stitching" etc.). And there are no advertising images, its just text ads. So is there any way i can fix this?
