11 Reasons Why You Want To Work In E-Commerce Marketing. Seriously.

You learn about it in school, you read about it in blogs. Either way, making your customers happy, having fun and enjoying where you work make working in e-commerce marketing just about the hottest job industry out there for these 11 reasons...

1. Facebook will NOT, I repeat NOT, get you in trouble.

Actually, Facebook is oftentimes essential to do your job. Whether you are engaging with customers, using the site as an ad platform or conducting market research, much to the dismay of your old professors, Facebook can be a critical marketing tool in helping your clients run their business.

2. That laid-back work environment...

Whether it's a shirt and tie, jeans and a T or anything in between, e-commerce marketing firms encourage a "come as you are" ensemble...to a certain extent. Aside from the wardrobe, the atmosphere includes flexible schedules and constant socializing to help increase creativity (water-cooler conversations encouraged, especially if you're drinking the water!)

3. Fast-paced.
