Why you need your own branded Corporate Academy
Because your staff are at different levels of knowledge
Not all your staff have the same understanding of digital marketing
At the fast pace that digital marketing changes, your internal training documents are continuously out of date
Your subject matter experts don't understand the full digital ecosystem and are unable to suggest holistic solutions
The threat of AI means your team needs to think as holistic marketers, as AI writing and design are now available to all your competitors too
The cost of training staff is skyrocketing, and cutting costs is imperative, but not at the cost of learning
What your staff will LEARN
With your own branded digital marketing corporate academy, your staff will comprehensively understand digital marketing strategies and techniques. They will learn about search engine optimization (SEO) and how to improve a website's visibility on search engines like Google. They will also learn about how to create and manage effective campaigns on platforms such as Google Ads, Facebook Ads, and many other social media platforms.
Staff will learn about social media marketing, including how to create and execute a social media strategy, how to use different social media platforms, and how to measure the success of social media campaigns. The academy covers analytics, including how to measure the success of your digital marketing campaigns using tools like Google Analytics. They will also learn how to create a detailed digital marketing plan, identify target audiences, and set clear goals and objectives.
Your teams will also learn about content marketing, including creating and distributing high-quality content that resonates with your target audience. Additionally, they will learn about email marketing, including how to create and send effective email campaigns and how to use email marketing tools such as Mailchimp and Constant Contact effectively.
This white-labeled Digital Academy has been developed with corporate marketing teams in mind.
