Since the beginning of the world wide web, there have been huge changes in how media is produced and consumed online. It has become necessary, more than ever, to understand how online mediums can be taken advantage of by businesses and organisations to create new opportunities and encourage growth in the digital world.
Our 3 Day Masterclass is an intensive yet focused workshop introducing participants to the main components that make up a digital marketing strategy. The first day focuses on the most dynamic and exciting form of this media evolution; social media - a phenomenon that is no longer being used by the few but by the many, and should seriously be considered an essential part of any businesses’ digital marketing strategy.
The social media component will give you an in-depth understanding of the shifts in this medium that have been occurring; highlight the depth and breadth of the social media landscape, and how your business or brand can benefit by forming a strategy that will comfortably fit into areas such as marketing, product development and customer services.
The second day session focuses on Email Marketing - one of the most cost effective and powerful forms of online digital marketing. When managed properly, email marketing can be an effective method of promoting products and services, as well as effectively engaging with customers and clients. It is inexpensive, reliable, measureable and the return on investment (ROI) can be very high.
Our course has been designed to help you make substantial improvements to your email blasting campaigns. By taking you through the fundamental principles behind email marketing strategies, you will gain an impressive insight into this advertising medium and will be able to confidently deploy and manage effective campaigns.
The third day covers good website design along with improving visibility online, especially on search engines such as Google. All marketing efforts in bringing visitors to your website are pointless if these visitors exit your website without buying or getting in touch, or performing some sort of interaction. This unique website course will give you a thorough understanding of the principles of persuasive website design, resulting in helping you create web design briefs that will help develop online pages that truly add value to your business or brand. You will discover that making some simple changes to your web pages can make a huge difference to the number of people who read your content, browse your pages, complete your enquiry forms or make a purchase.
By studying practical examples and case studies related to the above sessions, the principles and fundamentals of digital use for businesses and organisations will be explained and clarified through this interactive training course, enabling attendees to run and manage strategies within their respective marketing frameworks. We are proud to conduct a professional digital marketing training course in Abu Dhabi - a first in the UAE!
Each training day starts at 9.30am until 5.00pm, and is inclusive of course materials, certificate, lunch, refreshments and snacks, along with complimentary four week post course support and assistance. A wi-fi enabled laptop (not iPad or tablet) is required for this course along with a basic understanding of ICT and the internet.
