Advertising volume was Rs.32.8
billion in 2011-2012 that is projected
to be Rs.40 billion in 2014-2015.
Reactive advertising professionals
are safe about career growth.
However, few pro-progress Pakistani
advertising professionals assert that
annual advertising volume would be
around Rs.50 billion by June 2015 if
we optimally utilize promotional
opportunities and digital media.
There will be more jobs for fresh
graduates to make their mark in

of Pakistan.
