⚡️May 2, 2019 Update: 📣Announcing… Digital Masterclass by Anton Diaz (Batch 2 – Now Open!)
Dear Our Awesome Planet friends,
An awesome and exciting New Year to you all!
2019 is the year when digital marketing just becomes marketing because by default all marketing activities are digital. It is the year when nobody watches TV but everybody is binge-watching on Netflix, Amazon, and Youtube. This is the time when the social media capital of the world for consuming content becomes the capital of online content production. This will be the era of kid influencers and when our Gen Z kids enter the social media influence scene.
You are not ready for this. While you are still stuck debating with old management to invest in digital marketing or not, the world moves on to disrupt your business.
Our schools and other educational institutions don’t teach “digital marketing” because they teach by sharing case studies that worked 6 months or so ago. I cringe every time I see a digital marketing case study example from 2017 and below showcasing how it worked for them at that time. The supposed digital marketing “guru” who are not actual practitioners but just a spokesperson for the digital marketing company or millennial influencers who starts a digital marketing agency but markets like old-school marketers.
To succeed in the digital marketing landscape of 2019, you have to be on top of trends, predict algorithm changes, and future-proof your marketing. You have to unlearn years of marketing training that does not work in the new digital order. You need to discern where and to whom to learn from.
Digital marketing is not about doing a PR event for the launch of your business and expects people to go because of a one-time event. It is all about winning one digital native one at a time and building loyalty over a sustainable period of time.
I’m blogging since 2005 when my first son Aidan was born, and quit my day job as the CIO of P&G Philippines in 2008 to blog professionally since. Online marketing is a marathon and a commitment to over-deliver on expectations of your audience on a 1-on-1 basis but using a scalable digital infrastructure. I miss teaching during my Maven Secrets days in Asian Institute of Management and wanted to help more people this 2019.
I learn best when I teach and students learn from real live examples from digital practitioners and how they think about it. In partnership with SMX Academix, we are launching the inaugural Digital Marketing Masterclass and Digital Entrepreneurship Masterclass at SMX Aura, Taguig in the city of passionate people.
The masterclasses are designed as 6 weekly sessions of 3-hours each and the class becomes a mastermind group to learn from each other in their digital journey. I’m looking for 25 people to kick off the first ever masterclass and to be the founding mastermind members. Here is how to choose which masterclass to join:
Digital Marketing Masterclass
Target Audience: Professionals, Business Owners, Marketers even with zero experience in digital marketing.
Schedule: Every Saturdays 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM at SMX Aura
This masterclass teaches the fundamental insights on marketing as digital storytelling and how to tell your stories on different platforms using SEO, Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube. It’s better if you have zero knowledge on digital marketing so that you can absorb the mindset quickly than someone who has to unlearn first, before understanding how to market online in 2019 and beyond. You’ll learn from me, Our Awesome Planet Team, and our digital expert friends who are committed to making you successful in the digital space.
