I couldn't find a general description on wikipedia albeit not a professional research site, but the broad term 'marketing management' is explained: http://www.wikipedia.org and can search that term. I also looked on http://www.bls.gov/oco and searched 'marketing', 'advertising' or 'public relations', but it mainly talked about management positions like the aforementioned site albiet bls.gov is a reliable site. The job sounds kind of like an administrative assistant with having to answer (probably multi-line) phones, computer database work, working under strict deadlines especially with publishing a magazine and dealing with customers. Being a 'family-oriented company' sounds like family members work there(?) and if that is the case and there is an employment issue, I don't know that management will take any sort of action if a problem should arise. Perhaps it just means that they hire those that are hard-working people, settled, married with kids(?)
