Digital Marketing Strategy Course
If you’re interested in investing in your own marketing education, I’ve also launched a Digital Marketing Strategy course with the university of Vaasa in Finland. It’s taught entirely online and in English, so you can learn at your own pace.
By following the course you’ll build a marketing strategy for your organisation and be ready to implement it once you’ve finished.
It’s academically developed, but intensely practical and shares a method I’ve used with over 100 clients in various sectors.
