Brand Advantage – Standout Marketing in a Saturated Market


http://georgetownmeansbusiness.com/openenroll/program/brand-advantage

Marketing expertise is not just for marketing experts. Every executive and manger involved in advancing an idea, product, service, process, or policy before it goes to market needs a basic understanding of the target market, the competition, the customer, and the client. Professionals of all disciplines who understand marketing essentials can instill the rigor and discipline of “what works” into their organization’s processes and decision-making, engage more effectively with marketing experts, mitigate market risk, and ensure the return on investment and capital their organizations are seeking.

The program will address effective marketing and the importance of market segmentation today, examining how to analyze competitors and compel customers, and how to understand customer differences and needs. Participants will learn about the significance of “branding,” “positioning,” and the price/value equation and they will study the growing role of creating and keeping customer loyalty.
