Internet Marketing Jobs Coming To Lancaster, PA

More internet technology jobs are coming to Lancaster, PA according the founders of ProspectMX (http://www.prospectmx.com), an internet marketing strategies company located in Lancaster, PA. Specifically , the jobs will be in the areas of internet marketing and include search engine optimization, web content writing, link building and pay per click advertising.

“We are looking for some people with very special skill sets,” Co-Founder Dave Conklin said on Friday when announcing that they would be adding to their internet marketing team. The skill sets he’s referring to are often difficult to come by in Lancaster County, which is only starting to geton the map when it comes to technology companies.

ProspectMX was founded by Rory Wilfong, Dave Conklin and Steve Young, who are successful internet entrepreneurs. They have built many online companies included the $4 million dollar/year GetMyHomesValue.com. GetMyHomesValue.com continues to grow, but the employment needs there are very different. Steve Young, one of the founders explained, “GMHV (GetMyHomesValue.com) is always looking for sales people. We need high quality sales reps in order to succeed there, but the need with ProspectMX is different. ProspectMX needs people with internet marketing backgrounds to work on client and internal projects. Most of our business comes from our website, www.prospectmx.com, so the need for sales people there isn’t nearly as great.”

So, what will the new hires be doing? Well, the company is paid by its customers to create revenue using various internet marketing strategies. They boast having clients such as a national mortgage company, a fortune 500 foods company, a nation wide security company, auto dealers and many smaller companies as well. The work will consist of doing internet marketing related activities for these companies as well as internal internet marketing for the network of online businesses that are already deployed.

If you’re interested in getting hired at ProspectMX, don’t expect it to be easy sailing. They are looking for a proven track record. When Dave Conklin was asked if they would train people he replied, “Well, we’re not really excited about bringing people in here who don’t already have some kind of experience. Just because you can write doesn’t mean you know how to write about a topic you know nothing about. Having built a site doesn’t mean you qualify as an SEO engineer. Our clients pay us well to do what we do and we need high end people to carry out those responsibilities.” There’s even a “test” of sorts to work there, “When someone applies, we will actually give them a project to do before we hire them. We have found in the past that people are often all talk when they’re interviewing and later become disappointed,” Dave added regarding the interviewing process.

Alex Barger, who handles the teams programming and IT needs also commented, “If you question your abilities in the areas you are applying, save your time and ours. We are looking for people with proven track records.”
