Or are you invested in developing your own personal brand? Whether you're pursuing a career in marketing or not, understanding the basics of marketing is a must-have skill in today's fast-paced, competitive job market. You need to be able to communicate the right message to stand out.
Did you know that a study by the World Economic Forum found that marketing and sales is one of the top ten skills employers are seeking in new hires? With the knowledge you'll gain from this course, you'll be ahead of the curve and cover the basics.
This 6-week course is designed for absolute beginners, but the skills you'll learn are valuable for anyone looking to get ahead in today's competitive job market. From learning how to define a value proposition to creating your first marketing campaign, this course covers all the essentials. And the best part? You don't even have to have a background in marketing to benefit!
You'll meet your instructor and establish a comfortable group. We will explore the customers' needs, fears and wants, to establish what the brand can offer them: value proposition.
In this session, you will learn how to construct a customer persona to understand who we are selling our value proposition to and be able to identify the customer journey.
Branding comes into play when we try to communicate our value proposition to customers and we need to be memorable. It's important to define how we see ourselves as a brand and how we want to be seen.
Now that we know how we want to be seen and perceived, we need to put it into tangible visual elements that clearly represent who we are and what we stand for.
Effective communication is measured on conversions. You'll learn how to establish objectives and utilize relevant marketing channels.
It's time to pitch your newly built marketing campaign & brand strategy in front of our shEURks.

Not only I had a diverse group sharing all their own insights about the related topics, but my trainer was really helpful to teach us everything that was necessary to understand. It enabled us to practice some real life situations that are crucial for successful marketing techniques.
The Marketing Crash Course was the perfect transition for me to see how my previous knowledge can be applied in a new and creative way. Having a highly knowledgeable and welcoming teacher reminded me that being a beginner is an important role.
