Another article accepted

An article was accepted last week for the International Journal of Electronic Marketing & Retailing special issue on "evolving the social Web." It has the distinction of being my first solo-authored publication.

For those who are counting, that's four journal publications, along with three conference papers.

I thought that was fairly impressive until I read AMA's "Who Went Where" survey results, which were released today. Although the mean and mode for publications when going to market is zero, which clearly I've exceeded, the max (which is always my target to beat) was nine(!!), and the max for conference papers was 12. I don't think I could afford to go to that many conferences even if I had all those acceptances.

  1. Congratulations on another acceptance. I learned that most, but not all schools, were looking for quality not quantity. OTOH, if I had a JM, then they would want more publications. :)

  2. Well, I'm trying for both. The IJEMR article was from a seminar paper I did my very first semester at UNT, so I'm glad just to have it published.

    I have a JBR right now (B+) and a Journal of Consumer Behaviour (B), and I have one targeted for the Journal of Advertising that I'm working on this summer. I probably won't have a JM before I go to market, but I should have a few strong B's.
