These days, nearly everyone in the workforce is used to wearing many hats – and being able to do so is often a selling point on resumes and in interviews. If this describes you in your career, chances are you’ve been asked to do something outside of your typical job responsibility, and for many people that includes taking on some marketing efforts.

Many companies soon wonder, “How did we get here?”, “How did we spend so much budget on these initiatives?” and more importantly, “Are they working?” For the person thrown into overseeing or navigating the digital advertising landscape, they often think, “Is this my job now?”, “Am I qualified for this?”, “Do I really know what I am doing?”
