Unlock your marketing team's full potential
In-house marketing is not for the faint-hearted.
Every task needs done yesterday, everyone thinks they know how to do the job, and everything from social media to crisis management is the marketing manager's responsibility.
Korero Coach provides tailored, one to one professional development programmes to help marketing professionals find their edge.
Our experienced consultants have held in-house roles and worked in an agency setting. We understand the challenges in-house marketers face and have the insights and tools to help both entry-level marketers and senior marketing managers to reach their next career milestone.
Marketing with impact: graduate support
The first two years in a marketing role can be overwhelming. Keen to make an impact and meet expectation while navigating the new world of work can be daunting.
We work directly with your junior marketers to build the strategic skills, writing abilities, and confidence, that help them make a positive impact faster - while freeing up their line manager's time.
We'll tailor a development programme based on their competency gaps and business needs.
What we cover:
-
Copywriting and content creation - practical review of live work
-
Strategic thinking and campaign planning
-
Media relations and how to build journalist relationships
-
Digital content planning and social media
-
Measurement, reporting and demonstrating value

The Senior Marketer's Edge
The higher you climb, the lonelier and more complicated it can feel. Senior marketers and communications leaders are expected to think strategically, influence at board level, manage competing stakeholder demands and lead their teams, often while having to deliver much of the content too. What's more, most coaches don't understand what it actually feels like to be responsible for an organisation's story. This is mentoring from someone who does.
