What makes a person a marketer? What identifies a marketer from other folks in an organization? (Besides the obvious fact that the person works in Marketing.)

We took a light-hearted approach to that question and asked the MarketingProfs Facebook group to finish this sentence: "You know you're a marketer if..."

As we expected from the energetic and savvy group of marketers, the answers were fun, engaging, and---in some cases---absolutely cartoon-worthy.

So, I took our favorite responses and drew cartoons to match the definitions then put them in a slideshow to share with you.



Here's a peek at some of the responses in the slide show...

From Libby Eddleman Spears: "You know you're a marketer if you give your kids ideas about how to market their lemonade stand." (Click to tweet!)
