Marketing, for whatever reason, is actually a fairly tough field to get into right now. Probably because a ton of marketing/communication/journalism/etc... majors are trying to do it. Sales is incredibly easy to get into if you want to do straight commission (which I wasn't willing to do!). I work in Private Club marketing. If that may be something you want to do, there's been a big push on club's getting marketing directors. In which case, I would hunt out country clubs in your area. If nothing else, e-mail or mail your resume' to the marketing (membership) director at a club and ask if they need an assistant. If they are in a membership push (which doesn't really happen in the north until the fall, but is happening right now in the south) then they might hire you on as a temp, and even if you only work there 3 or 4 months, the networking system in that field is pretty good and as long as you do a good job, they'd probably have other club's they could help you get into. Just a suggestion.
This is really the only marketing track that I can give any advice for.

ETA: What is your degree?
