Open marketing challenges are rare and effective ways for brands to hunt talent and solid marketing ideas. Onata, Inc., a New Jersey-based tech startup has launched the Onata Marketing Challenge, inviting all New Jersey students to participate.

EDISON, N.J. (PRWEB) APRIL 13, 2018 Onata, the Universe of Services, has rolled out a unique marketing challenge open to students in all universities across the state of New Jersey. Students participating in the challenge will be presented with an opportunity to build from scratch a marketing plan for Onata.

The ​Onata Marketing Challenge​ culminates in inviting prizes for the first three winners. The company has intimated that winners can be both individual students or group of students.

Registrations are now open for the challenge.

The selection of the podium finishers will be based on the number of votes, budget, quality of innovation, customer acquisition cost, and number the of transactions the student/group generates. The company has also decided to reward standout plans and efforts with a permanent job at Onata, inclusive of salaries, allowances, and other benefits.

Krishna Vemuri, Founder, CEO/CMO of Onata said: “The Onata Marketing Challenge gives a hands-on experience to both regular students and aspiring marketers to try their ideas.
