Course Overview

Most disappointing results in local search strategy trace back to an audience defined too broadly. Discounting solves a problem in the marketing and commercial practice discipline today and creates a larger one next quarter. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda, not for observers of it. The course gives participants a defensible structure for local search strategy and the judgement to adapt it. Progress on this aspect of marketing and commercial practice is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. The most reliable predictor of sound the marketing and commercial practice capability is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. Every module pairs a short input on local search strategy with structured practice on the participant's own material. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in the practice within marketing and commercial practice before they become incidents. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda rather than a set of notes.
