Effective Management (Skills Course)
Course Code: DED9426
School: Stonebridge Associated Colleges UK
Description
No matter what business you are in, no matter what product of service you offer, you only make money by getting customers to buy that product or service.
Getting customers and satisfying their needs is what makes a business successful.
Marketing your business should be an integral part of every working day.
Marketing your business when you start up and then leaving it to chance or "word of mouth" is not good enough. Marketing is an ongoing process that is carried on as long as the business exists. "Word of mouth" is often regarded as "the best form of advertising" because it is free and comes with a recommendation. However, it is not under your control and therefore cannot be included in a structured marketing plan. You must not hope that you will succeed as a result of the efforts, or not, of an uninterested third party!
This course covers topics such as:
- The Key to Success
- The Marketing Cycle
- Marketing Plans
- The Cost per Sale Formula
- Business Generating Analysis
- Target Customers
- Market Segmentation
- Unique Selling Proposition
- The Marketing Mix
- The Three M's of Marketing
- Product Life Cycle
- Glossary of Marketing Terms
