Session 1 - Search Engine Marketing, Chris Parker
With search being the primary starting point of the customer journey, are you set up to ensure you attract visitors to your site? Consumers spend more than 25% of their time absorbing media online - if you are not engaging with this audience then you run the risk of cutting your potential customer base by one quarter. How many businesses can afford to do that? This half day session aims to provide you with the thought process and tools to make a substantial change to how you think about and execute your search engine marketing.
We will cover...
- Understanding "universal search" and the opportunities that it provides.
- Establishing a benchmark position
- Where do you want to be?
- How do you get there?
- The critical steps that you need to take.
- Paid for search working with organic search
- Accountability and Analytics - digging deeper for better results

Session 2 - Social Media Marketing, Jonnie Jensen
Today's internet has taken us back to the most basic of all marketing functions - reputation.
Reputation for businesses is no longer influenced by who has the most expensive website or who can buy the most advertising. It involves harnessing the tools collectively known as social media. Tools such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube have become the No.1 activity for internet users today. More time is spent using these services than any other online activity. Communities of people now gather on social media sites to share stories, pictures, experiences and knowledge. Brands have no control over the news whether it is good or bad. It is happening with or without you. The only option is to be part of the community; to participate and to influence the conversation.
In the social media session of this training programme you will be introduced to the subject of social media, its size and the scale of the opportunity. As we work through the session we will deal with popular misconceptions and remove any doubts or concerns you have that this is right for your business. By the end of the day you will have a practical understanding of how to apply social media strategies to your marketing and be excited by what your business can achieve.
- Social media - what it is, the scale and the opportunity?
- Gaining competitive advantage - social media is a powerful research tool
- Creating content that energises your team and attracts customers
- Building your audience
- Making it happen - practical use of social media tools
- Measuring success - turning traffic into customer
