Learning methods
The program combines lectures with case studies. The teaching material covers theories, frameworks, latest research insights, as well as examples of best (and worst) practices. There will be ample opportunity to learn with and from other participants during class discussions.
Note that this program is not about the social media industry (i.e., the “business” of social media platforms) or specific social media platforms. The intention is to broaden your perspectives on how social media have transformed marketing practice, not to narrow your thinking by focusing on the operational functioning of a few platforms.
Program
Content Marketing on Social Media
The first module addresses the new marketing paradigm due to the rise of the constantly connected customer and provides an overview of the diverse social media landscape. We answer the question: how can you communicate with customers instead of communicating to them on social media?
Word of mouth and Influencer Marketing
One of the purposes of a social media strategy is to get people talking about you. How can you leverage word of mouth and develop successful influencer marketing strategies?
Community Marketing
Social media can be used for much more than communications, promotions and raising awareness through buzz. We examine how companies can build trustworthy and lasting customer relations by embracing customers who gather in online communities.
