MARKETING MANDATORIES FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FIRMS
21 Modules | 130 Minutes | $298
Marketing can at times be blamed for polarizing the professional services playground. Think Marmite – you either love it or hate it – but for many, you know you have got to at least give it a go and chase after its potential returns.
Regardless of which side of the fence you sit, if done right, the value that Marketing will bring to a firm can be phenomenal. One of the proof points is that over the years, Marketing has become a well-respected player at the C-Suite table whose voice matters just as much as the fellow CTO, CFO, CRO and the rest.
From law firms to legal techs or fin techs organisations, when you consider the ever-changing landscapes that you serve in, it can be daunting to know how to develop a competitive edge that keeps you elevated as a go-to brand. Because our macro and micro environments are constantly evolving, they are forever testing us, keeping us on our toes, pushing us to our limits – encouraging (forcing), us to go to market with smart and targeted marketing. This can feel like a tough run to the finish line.
And it is not just our environment we need to keep track of. From marketing tools, marketing research and data analytics to performance metrics and a myriad of channels and formats, we are under pressure to story-tell in a powerful way that will resonate with our target markets and to support clients’ purchasing decisions.
