MARKETING BASICS
For powerful marketing, you need good foundations to start with. Do you recognize the feeling of knowing what needs to be done, but not quite how to do it? Or how to set your priorities for marketing actions?
If you are struggling to get out of the starting blocks of marketing or are stuck in a specific area due to a lack of knowledge, Websters is ready to teach you the essential skills of marketing.
We'll teach you the right focus on those initiatives that will impact your bottom line and teach you how to build a strategy, put it on paper and finally, execute it.
Relevant training courses: Marketing strategy, Basic marketing, Introduction in digital marketing
DIGITAL TOOLS
Digital expertise makes your marketing a lot more efficient. Making sure your business is findable online is one of the core issues in the digital landscape of marketing today.
Of course, you need to know how to influence that findability correctly and which channels to target.
We'll train you and your team in search engine optimization (SEO), show you how to best leverage key digital channels and provide other tools that can help significantly increase your online visibility and reach.
Relevant training courses: SEO, Chat GPT, Meta Business Suite, Google My Business, Emailmarketing, Social proof
SEARCH ENGINE ADVERTISING (SEA)
It's easier to give your people the technical skills to start PPC (pay per click) campaigns on their own than it is to bring all the content knowledge of your business to an agency like ours.
We train you, or your people, in such a way that you can either work with the advertising channels yourself or we make sure you have the knowledge to brief and challenge an external partner on what you expect in terms of inbound marketing.

SALES & PUBLIC SPEAKING

For real enthusiasts, we also offer call days or a cold call course.
Relevant training courses: Sales 101, Cold calling, Objection handling, Callday coaching

We provide training in selecting the right social media channels, adapting communications to different platforms, creating content, to even advertising on social media and integrating pixels on your website. In short, everything to optimize your community building and conversions online.
Relevant training courses: Content planning, Content creation, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Social media advertising
