Building Strategies to Organise High-Impact Marketing Events
Move high-impact marketing events from general awareness to a repeatable, reviewable practice.
Course Overview
Most disappointing results in high-impact marketing events trace back to an audience defined too broadly. Activity in this part of marketing and commercial practice is easy to generate and easy to mistake for progress. It is designed for mixed groups, so that this area of marketing and commercial practice is examined from more than one functional angle. This programme builds high-impact marketing events from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of the marketing and commercial practice discipline rather than to abstract argument. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda that were visible long before the incident. Participants gain a realistic view of what high-impact marketing events costs and what it returns. Moving this strand of marketing and commercial practice from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
