It has been a year since I started working for Ackerman McQueen, I started as an intern and finally became a Market Research Analyst, it has been fun but now it’s time for me to go. As much as I want to stay and work here, I have to go.
Here’s my job description in this company:
- Conduct and analyze international, national and regional advertising, sales, conversion, tracking, attitude usage, pyschographic, ethnographic, brand equity, and customer satisfaction studies and perform perceptual analysis.
- Cross-tabulate and analyze statistical data from media sales and other syndicated sources such as MRI, Simmons, NPD and Nielsen.
- Gather data on competitors and analyze their prices, sales, messaging, advertising, website, and method of marketing and distribution.
- Analyze qualitative research studies, focus groups, and In Depth Interviews.

Teman2 hehehe since di KYNoceng lagi pada rame ngomongin tentang Jamsostek and welfare orang2 Indonesia, gua reply nya disini aja deh biar jadi enak gak gangguin orang2 yang lagi pada ngerumpi hal2 yang lebih asyik… tapi buat gua ini lebih seru… 
Semua orang punya kebutuhan yang lain2, kebutuhan2 ini udah dibagi jadi 5 menurut Abrahaham Maslow
Dikenal sebagai “Maslow Hierarchy of Needs.” Menurut Maslow semua orang punya 5 basic needs, they are:
- Biological and Psychological: food, drink, air, sleep, sex, warmth, etc.
- Safety: law, stability, protection.
- Love and Belonging: family, affection, relationship, work group
- Esteem: achievement, status, responsibility, reputation.
- Self Actualization: personal growth and fulfilment.

As I stated in my last post, I will go back to Jakarta for good in the near future. Why? everybody asked me and I only have one word for an answer… a “VISION.” I had a vision of a better life in Jakarta, a life where I can change things, I can make things better, helping others helping themselves. It’s hard for me to actually make the decision, all the nice things that I sacrifice in the States (the clean air, 12 MBps Cable Internet, 140 Channels of Cable TV, 401K, no traffic jam even in rush hours, laws and regulations that truly benefit the people, free speech, freedom of religion, etc.) but hey, everybody needs to make a decision for themselves and for their loved ones right? somebody got to do it, so I did.

Mikirin tentang Jakarta lately, don’t know why… maybe because in the near future, I might go back to Jakarta after 8 years in Oklahoma… Banyak orang yang tau malah mencela, kenapa balik ke Jakarta? kenapa gak stay aja di US? mending ke Aussie aja, gampang kok dapet PR nya buat MBA lulusan luar! ke Singapore aja, dijamin bisa idup enak dan teratur! But, I have a vision in Jakarta, I want to be in Jakarta, I want to change Jakarta, I want to do something for Jakarta, and I don’t give a d*** of what everybody else thinks… I’m phlegmatic after all…
Banyak sekali hal yang berubah di Indonesia entah itu perubahan yang baik atau buruk and I’m not even sure if I can handle the change… Contohnya: mall sekarang udah nambah berapa banyak ya? daerah rumah bakalan tambah macet berkat busway koridor baru, Internet makin berkembang dengan adanya pilihan2 seperti 3G, 3.5G, Kabel dan bahkan satelit berarti kan orang2 Indonesia jadi lebih gampang cari informasi dan memajukan diri sendiri.
