Show Notes

“The consumer is the channel,” said Mike Massey of Locally. He’s absolutely right, and with COVID-19 creating new consumer behavior dynamics weekly, it’s even more true. 

 

Channel Mastery was launched three years ago this month to enable specialty brand and business leaders to know what’s working best, and what’s not, with consumer behavior. A big part of that is how we are serving them with both product and content  through a perfect overlay of channels behind the scenes. All they want is to have a remarkable experience with a brand with as little friction as possible. 

 

Easy, right?

 

Well, not so much. Brand marketers know that consumer preference and behavior changes are pretty constant, and we are working constantly to change our brand and content strategies and channel mixes. But with the pandemic and now recession? There’s been such a marked shift in how products are brought from concept to consumer that a big reset is warranted.

 

And that’s where the Multi-Channel Marketing Academy comes in! 

 

After over a year in the making, my team at Channel Mastery, Verde Brand Communications and I are launching a new digital product - Multi-Channel Marketing Academy.

 

This digital course and community provide a blueprint that’s usable for nimbly adapting to brand and product launches as well as ongoing communications strategies. With this blueprint, our students will become the owner of the end consumer/shopper relationship within their organizations, reporting to their C-suite peers on what’s working, and what’s not, for the brand’s absolute target shopper. 

 

This is the course that specialty brand and business leaders need to adapt their businesses to the new business landscape being created now by COVID-19 and the recession. 

 

This episode of the Channel Mastery podcast is about the ‘why’ behind  the Academy, and what to expect should you decide to join us in our inaugural cohort. The timing for this course could not be more pressing. We will only be launching this during certain times of the year, so don’t miss out! 

Here is more information on the Multi-Channel Marketing Academy:

 

Duration: Two months, during which time seven modules (with exercises and templates) will be taught, weekly coaching sessions, and guest lecturers

 

Who is it for: Specialty marketing professionals, business leaders and entrepreneurs
