Attributes that would make an excellent marketer.

Production is one side of a business. Selling is another aspect of a business. A marketer is a person who initiates and coordinates activities that would convince a potential customer to purchase a product. If you consider the volatility and unstable nature of humans, you would agree with me that not everyone can be a marketer. There are certain attributes that a person possesses and he/she is likely to subbed as a marketer.

I think one major attribute of a marketer is patience. Marketing is not for hot-tempered people. This is because a customer might stretch you beyond your limit and you would want to explode. But you have to calm down if you want to close that deal.

Another attribute of a good marketer is excellent listening capacity. Customers are full of complaints upon complaints. You have to carefully listen to them all and inform the production department to adjust where possible.

The last attribute of a matter is being sensitive. This is very important because as a marketer, you must know when to give up on a potential customer and when to follow up. You should also be able to detect when to close deals.

Shout out to all the marketers.

Working as a marketer is great.Content marketing is a hot job market — and for good reason. Content marketing can help businesses stand out from the crowd, build brand awareness and drive customers to your website.

With so many companies looking to hire content marketers, it's important to have a solid understanding of what makes a great content marketer. Here are five key skills that every content marketer should have:

1. Excellent communication skills

2. Demonstrated ability to write compelling copy.

3. Strong research skills

4. Expertise in social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram

5. An understanding of SEO (search engine optimization)

You need to be able to think on your feet and make quick decisions. You need to be able to communicate clearly and concisely, whether that's in text or video.

You may also need to have the right technical skills. That means having the ability to create a great website or app for your clients.
