The Marketing Management Seminar is an intensive course that introduces the methods, processes and effects of modern marketing.

Concept

Marketing is an important driver of success. Even the best product or the most innovative offer cannot be successful if customers do not need it, want it or know about it. The most important purpose of marketing is to coordinate market needs and requirements with a company's capabilities and potentials. Concentration on very specific customer benefits enables price flexibility due to competitive advantages, customer preferences and efficiency in sales. Three core aspects need to be optimized:

Marketing Concept

The marketing concept defines how a company will achieve market success. Participants learn how to develop, evaluate and implement a marketing concept.

Marketing Culture

The main concerns of every marketing philosophy are to align all organizational entities with customer needs and to create an overall orientation on total customer satisfaction. This is a challenge for all employees of an organization: customer orientation is not just about marketing and sales. The question is how to develop and cultivate a customer-oriented mindset.

Sales Management

The best concepts are worthless without brisk sales. How can a company increase sales performance, develop new sales systems and design new distribution channels?
