Your father is right experience is the best teacher when it comes to anything but only if it`s some one else`s experience so it dose`nt cost you time and money, Remember Marketing 101, Amway Global is a 50 plus year old BBB and FTC listed company.so they know marketing. There new Fast Track program is High tec and high touch here`s a way to learn marketing and maybe get paid while you do it, You do not have to sell your friends there are better ways, Heck your dad may even want to help you with it. They are looking for young people who are looking for a chance to be mentor by people who have done what they teach, Not like a lot of college professor’s if you need further help you may email me. Good luck

no, no one get experience in ANY job, so how can you be possibly be expected to get experience? Just be sure to take all the classes you need and also maybe consider internship options.

No. What dad is saying is correct on one level. The industry is looking for "creative" people. The same people always have the wonderful ideas that sell lots of products. Doesn’t matter what they majored in, they are geniuses.
But it might take the degree to get the job in the first place. Then you get discovered..
