Marketing political contributions from Ohio
3,181 itemized gifts totaling $626,037 sit at the meeting of Marketing and Ohio. 125 unique donors produced the cell. FEC.gov is the source. Ohio MARKETING is a one-word occupation. Marketing manager is a longer neighboring label and is not recoded into this Ohio cell. $29,904,769 is the national occupation denominator; Ohio is 2.1%. The label is a filer-entered occupation, not a BLS marketing-occupation census, an AMA membership roll, or a firm payroll.

Two keys: MARKETING and OH
The packet’s keys are literal: occupation string MARKETING, donor state OH. Their product on FEC.gov individual-contribution aggregates is $626,037, from 3,181 contributions and 125 donors. No recipient list, party split, or PAC total is published here.
Treat the label as a self-reported occupation. Free-text fields let filers write a longer title, a nearby spelling, or an employer instead. Those rows are counted elsewhere. This page does not merge those buckets. Neighbors include marketing manager, marketing director, marketer, and advertising.
$626,037 is smaller than $29,904,769 because other states exist, and it is not a share of all Ohio giving because this packet has no state-wide occupation-blind denominator. The join is the point. Ohio MARKETING is a one-word occupation. Marketing manager is a longer neighboring label and is not recoded into this Ohio cell.
Marketing as typed, not a census
After this Ohio cell of $626,037, $29,278,732 of the Marketing grouping remains in other states. That remainder is 97.9% of $29,904,769. The Ohio page is not empty of other occupations; this file simply does not add them.
Percentages here use packet facts only. No statewide all-occupation total is supplied, so no share of Ohio politics is claimed. 2.1% is Marketing-internal. In-house versus agency versus freelance marketing as typed is unpublished.
Means on $626,037
125 donors and 3,181 contributions are compatible because one identity can give more than once. The implied 25.4 gifts per donor is a mean. High-repeat filers would pull that mean up; one-time filers would pull it down. The packet does not split those groups.
$5,008 per donor and $197 per line are derived from $626,037. They are not contribution limits and not typical gift size if the distribution is skewed. In-house versus agency versus freelance marketing as typed remains unpublished.
Dropping the Marketing filter
Dropping the Marketing filter returns the reader to the Ohio campaign-finance index. That index is not $626,037. Adding the filter back recovers this cell: 3,181 contributions, 125 donors, $626,037.
No statewide all-occupation denominator is in the packet, so Marketing cannot be ranked as a percent of Ohio itemized giving. 2.1% remains a share of $29,904,769 only.
Keeping $626,037 attached to both keys
Keep both nouns in every citation: Marketing and Ohio. Dropping the state turns $626,037 into $29,904,769. Dropping the occupation turns this cell into the state hub, which this packet does not quantify as an all-occupation total.
Internal paths: /occupations/marketing/ for the occupation running total, /states/OH/ for the state without this title, /occupations/ for neighboring strings, /ties/ for other joins. Ohio MARKETING is a one-word occupation. Marketing manager is a longer neighboring label and is not recoded into this Ohio cell.
Repeat the join without adding fields the packet does not publish. The occupation and state hubs remain the places for one-sided totals. This tie page quotes packet facts only. Independent expenditures stay outside the cell. Filer-entered occupation strings are not payroll titles. Readers who need a person-level roster will not find names on this page. USAspending.gov is a different ledger from FEC.gov individual contributions.
All occupations and All FEC ties remain the indexes for sibling joins. Cite the source note exactly as copied from the packet. Do not convert a contribution count into a unique-person census. Dollar figures first, then the two keys that produced them. The canonical path is a ties URL, not a donor-detail URL. Unitemized gifts are outside the itemized aggregate quoted here.
Nearby job titles belong on their own occupation hubs if stored as other strings. A mean gift is dollars divided by itemized lines, not a typical check. Public records describe overlap; they do not assign motive. Repeat the join in one line: occupation MARKETING ∩ state OH = $626,037, 3,181 receipts, 125 donors, 2.1% of $29,904,769. Neighbors remain marketing manager, marketing director, marketer, and advertising. Source remains FEC.gov.
