Introduction
This practical professional course puts your hands-on with the mechanics of content marketing. You’ll gain an advanced working knowledge of the discipline and the skills you need to produce content that delivers results.
Businesses use content marketing to draw customers to their brand and retain them. Finding the right story and telling it the right way is where you come in as a content marketer. You’ll become fluent in content marketing strategy and planning through engaging exercises and interactive workshops. You’ll explore tools and techniques to bring your ideas to life, with particular emphasis on commercial copywriting. And you’ll hear guest lectures drawn from the industry. You’ll bring it all together when you deliver content for a real-world client brief.
