Open Question: Career advice, what direction should I go?
I’m 22 years old, I have a Bachelors Degree in Business Admin. with a concentration in Marketing. In December I will have one years experience in Marketing. I market Ag products for a small company making $26,000 a year. I only took this job to gain experience. Everybody here is 40+, uneducated, and think that young people are ignorant. I would like to continue this career path or on another one in the business field. In college I worked at a restaurant as a supervisor and I liked it except for the pay. I enjoy working with people. I can communicate to average people better than I can persuade an ageist Vice President why my marketing strategy is better than his. I was thinking of being a retail (i.e. walmart, lowes) manager or supervisor because I don’t mind getting down and doing work alongside the employees who are under me. Also here recently I am looking into Real Estate. Maybe I could get my license and be a realtor for a real estate company. Although I don’t if anybody would buy a house or property from a 22 year old. In my Idea of a dream job would be to travel or at least be able to get to leave the office or even not be restricted to my desk all day, but this isn’t exactly necessary.
I am almost open to anything in the business/marketing field. I am looking for ideas of things that maybe I haven’t thought of yet, or some thoughts and opinions on what I’ve looked into already and how to get started on that path. I am single and have nothing holding me down where I am.
Thank You,
Open Question: Input for a business proposal?
I was just recently on a plane, in the very last row beside the bathrooms, and while flying there was a great deal of turbulence and as a result the flight attendants forbade anyone from getting up and going to the bathroom. Because of this at least 3-4 children, ranging in age up to around 11 or 12, wet their pants on the plane. Having an entrepreneurial spirit I realized there may be a way to prevent this from happening again, and allow me to make a healthy profit. I believe that selling youth pull-up style diapers, specifically designed to be worn by children from the ages 7-12 while traveling, is a great solution. Encouraged by this idea I looked around the airport after my arrival and realized that it did not sell any diapers larger then size 3, so the perfect place to sell them would be at the airport. I also realized that this airport did not sell any of the undergarments aimed towards bed wetters such as Goodnites or Underjams. Therefore this would hopefully develop into a near- essential traveling item for bed wetters, just in case they fall asleep, and eventually spread into a recommended item for all children within the age range of 7 to 12. Because of the nature of such a product advertising is the key, and as long as I can appeal to parents I believe this product could become a huge success. This product would be designed for all children, even those already potty-trained who are not bed wetters or have frequent accidents, because any child could have an accident while traveling. I was just wondering what others think of this product and would you use this for your children while traveling, if it was socially acceptable or even if it wasn’t yet, or if you aren’t a parent would you think that you might use this if you had children.
