In 6 hours you work your way through Content strategy and target groups, Topic research and editorial calendar and Content formats and the customer journey in a structured way – with plenty of practice and time for your questions.
Visibility, reach and measurable results in online marketing come from the interplay of many disciplines: search engine optimisation, web analytics, paid campaigns, content and newsletters. In our Content Marketing training you work on realistic examples from mid-sized companies and large organisations. You learn to plan measures cleanly, implement them correctly and evaluate them using key figures. Each course lasts one day, runs online or on site and combines concise explanations with exercises you can apply to your own project the very next day.
The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.
