Program

Fast Track Digital Marketing is Econsultancy’s most popular course globally and it’s been rebuilt from the ground up in 2013 to take into account the very latest considerations facing organisations in their digital marketing. 

The course helps make sense of the rise of digital by examining the technological evolution that has driven social and behavioural change.  Many of the implications are yet to be known but a robust strategic approach that experienced offline marketers will recognise will be presented to help everyone involved in digital approach its themes with rigour.

The aim of the course is to equip delegates with the confidence, the tools and the techniques to build the right digital strategy for their organisations, including:

Attraction

  • Display and Interactive Media 
  • Social Media - video, social media outreach, online PR

Who should attend?

This course is ideal for those with experience of traditional, offline, marketing but less exposure to online marketing channels, or those with experience in specific digital disciplines, who want to know how different channels can fit together.  It’s equally refreshing and rewarding for people who have been “doing” digital for some time but want to set their experiences in context and discover new approaches.
