MARKETING
Intro to Marketing. Why do we teach marketing to your students?
- To Develop Communication Skills: Marketing involves effective communication to promote products or ideas. Regardless of their chosen careers, teaching students marketing principles helps them enhance their communication skills, including verbal and written expression, persuasive techniques, and storytelling abilities.
- To Understanding Consumer Behaviour: Marketing education provides insights into consumer behaviour, helping students grasp the motivations and needs of individuals. This knowledge enables them to understand better how products, services, and messages can meet those needs.
- Encouraging Creativity and Innovation: Marketing involves creative problem-solving and finding unique ways to attract attention and engage an audience. Teaching marketing to your students will spark their creativity, encouraging them to think outside the box, develop original ideas, and develop innovative approaches to challenges.
- To Promoting Entrepreneurship and Business Awareness: Marketing is a fundamental aspect of entrepreneurship and business. By introducing marketing to your students, they gain an understanding of how companies and Startups operate, the importance of market research, branding, and customer satisfaction. This knowledge can inspire and prepare them for future entrepreneurial endeavours.
- To Developing Financial Literacy: Marketing education often touches on concepts like pricing, budgeting, and the value proposition of products and services. These lessons can help your students develop financial literacy skills, such as understanding the cost and value of goods, making informed purchasing decisions, and managing resources effectively.
- To Promoting Ethical Awareness: Marketing education can teach students about ethical considerations, such as honesty, transparency, and social responsibility. By exploring marketing ethics, they learn to differentiate between manipulative marketing tactics and those that are fair and ethical.
Digital Literacy
Marketing increasingly occurs in digital spaces. Teaching marketing to your students exposes them to various digital marketing tools, platforms, and strategies, enhancing their digital literacy skills and preparing them for the digital world they live in.
