Effective Marketing

    Concept

    Marketing is the intensive preoccupation with the customer, his needs and wishes, his unsolved problems and his willingness – through the launch of new technologies and services – to participate in new markets. Marketing aligns all company processes, the thinking and actions of an organization, to customers and customer benefits. For this, it needs concepts, instruments and systems. It needs a customer-oriented corporate culture. And it requires a lot of instruments to actually implement marketing measures successfully.

    This seminar takes you on a systematic journey through the world of marketing. It offers you a comprehensive look at marketing with a special focus on what has become more important during the last few years – direct marketing, online marketing, digital marketing, search engines and social media.
