I want to be recognised – but without stepping on toes?
I used to be an email marketing Account manager for 4 years, as such I have immense knowledge strategy & experience in sending all types of email campaigns.
The problem i have is that I dont hold any official marketing qualifications and generally get overlooked for email marketing exec roles as a result. I end up being in roles that are part sales/part marketing.
In my current job I’ve brought in new email marketing ideas, and started the company off with email campaigns with immense success.
Because of this other departments now want a piece of the action. But rather than me doing the campaigns for them, they are handing all responsibility to marketing manager. Im not happy.
Will it be wrong thing to ask to be in charge of all email marketing in the company?
You know the answer but go up to your supervisor and ask how the marketing idea you gave is working. At the same time say I might have some other ideas along that line but I think I would do it better if I supervise a group of people.
Sounds like you are in a corporate environment. Over time, your great email marketing work should get you recognition and situated in the right place. Keep up the good work and make sure your concerns are voiced well to your colleagues and managers. Email marketing and all of Internet marketing is truly an art and smart managers will recognize that.
Go to the President. Explain exactly like you did in your question so she will understand that you are not cutting in on anyone else’s department. She will give you the job you want..
