Time is our largest competitor, so how do we become even more productive?

Some of the world’s largest companies are dominating the marketplace within just a few years of being a startup, and with no prior business experience. Their success and exponential growth are mainly due to the quality of their original idea and how they leverage the digital space, especially with today’s social media platforms. The most important contributing factor is still word of mouth, but in today’s technological age, it is the digital word of mouth that is also crucial. Our aim at the event is to demonstrate how to maximize digital social media for your business’ competitive advantage and build future success.

What does training seminar offer?

95% of businesses in this region do not leverage certain business growth tools, as LinkedIn, to their full advantage. LinkedIn has over 25 million people in the UK registered as users. However, the majority of them still think the purpose of LinkedIn is just to showcase a digital CV.

However, LinkedIn can grow your business, open up vital business relationships and create more business opportunities than any other medium. More importantly, it gives you a competitive edge over businesses operating in the same sector.

LinkedIn provides unprecedented means to accelerate your company’s sales cycle by tapping into its 500M+ members (over 25m in the UK), 3M+ Companies and 2M+ group conversations. As a key business manager, you have the means and reach to dramatically increase the value of LinkedIn for demand generation, deal closing, relationship management, hiring the right sales teams and growing the right management team.

Mike loves to see business thrive and grow and this is a key value for him, especially in the Birmingham and surrounding regions. South and City College Birmingham has recently acquired Bournville College and wants to support growth in this region. Mike has teamed up with the UK’s No1 growth strategist Mark Hamilton-Taylor to deliver a training seminar on how business can leverage LinkedIn and Google to demonstrate the takeaway as mentioned.

You’re in safe hands, as Mark was asked to build academic qualifications in social media, built the UK’s most successful apprenticeship and also delivered solutions for Google, Enterprise Rent a Car, Premier League football clubs, Chambers of commerce, law societies, and many different industries.
