Dylan Kohlstädt founded Shift ONE, a creative integrated digital marketing agency with nearly 20 full time staff members, in 2011.
In 2013, Dylan identified the need to upskill entrepreneurs and Marketing Managers in critically needed digital marketing skills, to future-proof their careers, and to empower them with the abilities to do the work themselves, or manage it better.
Her focus is on face-to-face training because, as she says, digital marketing is a rabbit hole that that quickly become confusing, and online training isn't the best communication method for this topic.
Using the knowledge gleaned from working in an agency that daily helps businesses grow, Dylan has crafted each course and packed it full of tips, tricks, short cuts and insights so that you don't have to go through the learning curve of others.
Dylan presents most of the courses herself, and believes that people only remember content that is engaging and interactive, just like her training sessions.
