Robert Stead Managing Director Sense Media

The Commercial Marketing Masterclass by MPG was highly topical, addressing the challenges we are facing right now in early 2021 as we move from traditional events business to hybrid digital community. There was lots of great material covered and good discussion about how to integrate this into your business strategy, as well as a host of helpful follow up resources we have access to.

As Managing Director, I’m not directly involved in running our marketing, but I consider it a critical function in the business and an investment priority this year.

MPG are true experts in this field, and I came away with a long list of things to action in the business in the short and medium term. Tremendous value.

What's included?

  • Online training course
  • Digital course pack including templates and other resources
  • Recorded video of session
  • Max. of 6 attendees per course for optimal interactivity

Claire Clilverd Group Head of Commercial Marketing Infopro Digital

I was placed on the MPG Commercial Marketing Masterclass to support my new role within my company. I was provided with a robust outline of commercial strategy planning, techniques on how to implement revenue generating campaigns, as well as insightful ways of conducting new business research.

Each element of the training course has allowed me to quickly develop and prioritise the projects on my 100 day plan. The templates and tools that you receive post event are also phenomenal.Researching and creating this documentation would have impacted my workload quite significantly. Therefore, it has allowed me to move straight into implementing what I’ve learnt.

A very valuable course, in many ways.
