Choose channels for e-commerce platform marketing on evidence of where the audience decides.
Building Marketing Strategies for Major E-Commerce Platforms
Turn e-commerce platform marketing from a stated policy into a practice your organisation can evidence.
Course Overview
Most disappointing results in e-commerce platform marketing trace back to an audience defined too broadly. A message about this area of marketing and commercial practice that tries to reach everyone reaches nobody. The version of this part of marketing and commercial practice described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. Across sectors, teams that rehearse e-commerce platform marketing outperform teams that only plan it. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this strand of marketing and commercial practice has actually achieved. The course covers e-commerce platform marketing at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with the practice within marketing and commercial practice. The programme closes with an action plan for the marketing and commercial practice discipline that each participant writes for their own organisation.
