Last week I was just a video producer, as of today I've been made Director of Marketing (long story), any info, tips or things I should know would be much appreciated, book and other info recommendations would be great as well.

I've got a BS in communication with an emphasis in video production. I'm just gonna be real. I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to do and I'm a little nervous.

I've just been hired as a Director of Marketing and I have literally no idea what to do or what the day to day work I should be doing is.

Marketing is about making decisions about Price, promotion, place, product (the 4ps).
There are then different ways you can justify your decisions quantitatively or qualitatively. It is mostly all bullshit though, more art than science

Get with who you answer to, ask them what marketing objectives they have in mind. Gotta know which way is up.

To be effective at marketing, consider expanding the concept and use the 7 Ps instead. This should help. Good luck
