How often, if at all, do you take rural areas of your country into consideration when thinking about multicultural advertising? Is it a segment you have much experience targeting? Where would you turn if you wanted to gain more expertise?

Recently worked on a campaign that was meant to target rural areas of the country. We were working with a large firm, well known group. I personally wasn’t happy with how it was done but there were successful vanity metrics obtained.

If I needed to turn to someone for more info/expertise to market to those groups, I’d look to recruit marketers from those areas or schools in those areas. They’d hopefully have knowledge about what “works” for that target audience from a marketing lenses.

Hi everyone. I was a solution engineer at Oracle. I graduated from college in May and this was my first job out of college so the lay offs were pretty rough. I majored in Supply chain management and I have 2 internships under my belt. Do you guys have any advice or tips on what to do moving forward? I would like to stay in tech and I’m giving it a few weeks before I start pivoting to more traditional supply chain roles. Thanks.

Two pros: 1) Making the jump from a non-tech agency role to FAANG can be tough, so this is a great oppo in that aspect.
2) I'm living in SF on a non-tech salary, so the pay increase would be incredible.

It’s possible I could move into a similar role @ Meta once this expires, but to be safe, I'd need to start the job hunt again asap.

Thoughts on the pivot & how valuable a short-stint at Meta is for future job hunt?
