Scheduled Dates Locations filtered. Show all UK course locations.

Course Overview

For organisations to compete effectively online, they must provide a compelling experience that makes a crucial connection with their audience. Making this connection is an art, not a science, and as such there is no online marketing formula that can be rolled out. However, knowledge of best-in-class approaches that have worked for other brands can inspire and motivate marketers to develop their own deep and meaningful marketing initiatives. Best practice approaches must span all aspects of digital marketing from the first point of contact to delivery of online services and experiences.

The purpose of this course:

This course will enable you to review your current approach to online marketing in light of the most significant trends in digital media marketing techniques and changes in media consumption and buyer behaviour. You will be able to identify and prioritise the digital marketing activities which must be improved to prosper online.

Benefits for your organisation:

You will be able to benchmark your organisations' capabilities against similar companies with a significant commitment to digital media. It will enable you to review and refine your digital marketing strategy to identify the major change initiatives required.

Benefits for you as an individual:

Online marketing is one of most ambiguous and complicated roles a marketer can be faced with. This course will cover the process through research and planning through to execution of successful online marketing initiatives. It will also reveal the intangible 'magic' that makes the difference between an online brand and an online superbrand.
