Marketing donations in the 2010 FEC cycle

Marketing × 2010

MARKETING plus cycle 2010 equals $885,318. That figure is the harvested sum of itemized individual contributions in which the occupation field matched this string and the two-year federal election cycle was 2010. Marketing director, CMO, marketing manager, and advertising are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into an AMA membership roll, a CMO census, or an agency headcount. Other cycle amounts are not fields in this packet.

Parent hubs: Marketing donations at /occupations/marketing/ and the 2010 election cycle at /election-cycles/2010/. All occupations lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $885,318 into another year or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Marketing in 2010 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $885,318. In-house versus agency versus freelance work is unpublished for Marketing in 2010. The occupation page and the 2010 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees.

MARKETING as a one-word occupation

$29.9 million ($29,904,769) belongs to the exact string MARKETING across harvested cycles. It is not an AMA membership roll, a CMO census, or an agency headcount. People who wrote nearby wording — marketing director, CMO, marketing manager, and advertising — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The 2010 slice is 3.0% of that title bucket. Share of MARKETING is not share of all 2010 receipts.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $885,318. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $29,904,769. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Marketing donations and the live 2010 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot. Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $885,318.

1,018 marketing receipts in a midterm

492 donors and 1,018 receipts — about 2.1 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $870; mean per donor about $1,799. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. 492 donors makes this a mid-size occupation-cycle cell. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 1,018 is a line count, not 492 one-time gifts; about two lines per donor, which is consistent with repeat gifts inside the same two-year window. In-house versus agency versus freelance work is not encoded in the occupation string. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by MARKETING. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $885,318.

Generic title versus industry PACs

Cite $885,318 as Marketing in 2010. Cite $29,904,769 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add advertising-industry PAC filings to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $885,318 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s cycle cell rather than rescale 3.0%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. This join does not recode MARKETING into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string. Correlation is not causation: a midterm-year total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset.

How to cite marketing money in 2010

A clean footnote names occupation MARKETING, election cycle 2010, $885,318 in itemized individual contributions, 1,018 receipts, and 492 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $870 per line and $1,799 per donor in the cell. If the live Marketing donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 1,018 as unique workers in the trade.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Marketing donations rolls every cycle into one MARKETING running total. The 2010 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2010 total. Only the Marketing × 2010 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 1,018 receipts and $885,318. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.
