After just over a month, I think I'm finally settling in.  I've begun to learn enough of the marketing strategies to begin venturing out on my own now.  Rather than having to be helped every other minute, I am finally feeling more confident in my abilities and the work that I am producing.  In fact, even client phone calls are becoming less intimidating and more fun.  I feel as though my learning curve is beginning to subside and I can finally use my learned marketing knowledge in my extra marketing activities outside of the office.  I am able to apply concepts from the office to websites that I have created and now feel more confident in measuring the success they are producing.  While I still have a lot to learn about small business marketing and different interactive marketing, email marketing, and event marketing strategies, I at least feel as though I am not in the dark as much when we do sit down with clients.

Phew! I thought this might have been a long, rough road, but the reality of the matter is, when you put your mind to it...I guess it is achievable.
