PROFILE OF THE COURSE
In a communications environment characterized by a flood of competing media offerings, it is becoming increasingly difficult for companies and other organizations to attract the attention of their target groups. In the modern media society, attention has thus become a scarce commodity and a central target category for organizations (Franck, 1998).
Digital content marketing is a central and effective measure for achieving this goal. Content marketing is a marketing discipline that uses entertaining and/or informative content to attract and retain potential and existing customers to a company. Small and medium-sized companies in particular, but also larger companies, are often faced with the problem that they do not communicate valuable content on their digital channels. There is often content, but it is of little value to users and is therefore not consumed.
The certificate course Content-Marketing Manager at the International Business School of the FH Kufstein Tirol offers professionals a scientifically sound and practical training course to understand the processes of the attention economy and to provide effective content.
