TAF APPROVED TRAINING
Do You Find Digital Marketing Overwhelming? You're Not Alone

You know that Digital Marketing is crucial for the success of your organisation. Your members expect you to engage with them with effective websites, via social media and informative email newsletters. 

Yet many TAF members tell us that they struggle to keep up-to-date with digital marketing. Everything changes so quickly and there’s too much to do...

What do you tweet about? Should you have an Instagram or WhatsApp account?

How do you make the most of LinkedIn and Facebook? Should you have a YouTube channel and and what should you do with the data from Google Analytics?

The reality is that many membership organisations are falling behind with modern, digital marketing. Yet want to set a good example for their members and 'lead the way' in terms of best practice. If they're not careful, some membership bodies can look as though they don't 'get it' when it comes to modern marketing. 


This is why we’ve put together a bespoke online training course designed just for membership bodies. 

Learn The Digital Skills You Need

Traditional membership methods aren't enough anymore. To stay relevant, you and your team need to seize the opportunities of digital marketing and use it to attract new members and keep them happy. 

Digital Marketing for Trade Associations will show you how to use modern marketing techniques to grow your organisation, better engage with your members and further demonstrate your value to them.

This unique course is designed to accelerate your knowledge of digital marketing. You'll gain a fundamental understanding of the key principles and learn how to put together an effective digital marketing plan. 

Digital Marketing for Trade Associations is a highly practical learning experience...

​Depending on the course option you choose (see below), the course is delivered through a combination of
  • live webinars
  • professionally produced video tutorials
  • slideshows
  • quizzes
  • checklists
  • helpful how-to guides
  • email and telephone support
This Course Is Right For You If...​​

  • ​You're a marketer and you want to improve your skills
  • You find yourself overwhelmed by digital marketing
  • You manage your online marketing and advertising budget
  • You're a manager who'd like to get up-to-speed 
  • You'd like to keep your agency on their toes
​
This course is not right for you if you're a highly experienced digital marketer with several years of digital marketing under your belt...

Your 6-week Live Class Schedule

The 60-90 minute live classes usually take place on Mondays and Wednesdays at 3pm. The classes are webinar based, enjoyable and highly interactive. 

The benefit of these live classes is that you're able to ask questions of the tutor and engage with others as you learn. This makes for a richer learning experience and ensures you receive a tailored learning experience. 

Most people don't complete self-study courses.  But because these lessons run on a scheduled basis, you'll make time for learning.

Between each week of the 6-weeks, students are paired with other delegates and set tasks to help embed the learning into their organisation (this can be optional if you prefer). There are also discussion groups and forums where students can ask questions and get extra support.

​Students on the Supported and Guided programmes (see below) can also seek input from Andrew directly via calls and email. 

At the end of the course, Supported and Guided students can gain a certificate. All students will have access to all materials for future reference.
