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.

Here's what you will cover in this course

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!

Week 1: Value Proposition

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.

Week 2: Customer Research

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.

Week 3: Branding

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.

Week 4: Visual Communication

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.

Week 5: The Marketing Campaign

Effective communication is measured on conversions. You'll learn how to establish objectives and utilize relevant marketing channels.

Week 6: ShEURk Tank

It's time to pitch your newly built marketing campaign & brand strategy in front of our shEURks.
