    Does anyone know of any good courses for Digital PR & Markleting that don't cost the earth!  All I have found so far is courses that cost over £500 and that is too expensive when you are  a sole trader.  Why are training courses so expensive!  Maybe I will just ahve to stick to reading books and learning myself.

    Hi Nikki

    I can appreciate training budgets can be difficult to justify. Lots of sole traders and small business owners attend our training courses and the overwhelming majority of the feedback we receive from them highlights the immediate business advantage they feel that they gain. In particular, they feel that they benefit by being able to raise specific issues affecting them with a professional trainer who is actively working in the digital industry and networking with other attendees who may have similar issues.

    As the industry changes so rapidly, so does our training. Our courses are updated regularly to keep them relevant and current. This takes time, resources and ultimately affects our charges.

    E-consultancy training counts towards a CPD qualification which allows you to demonstrate your continued professional development to your clients.

    I would be happy to talk through any questions you may have, you can e-mail me or please feel free to call 0207 681 4073.

    Thanks,

    Naveed

    Hi Nikki

    Hallam Communications specialise in providing Internet marketing consultancy and and training for small businesses in the UK.

    We are running an Intermediate Search Engine Optimisation training course on 4 February for £250 + VAT.

    Being outside of London means we can keep our costs down - but the quality is still excellent.  Take a look at our testimonials.

    We are also running a Pay Per Click training course on 22 Feb -

    Hope this is helpful

    Thanks I will keep an eye on your website to see if there are any courses that I am interested in doing as that is much more affordable.
