It is a well-researched fact that awareness alone does not lead people to change their attitudes or behaviours. If you want to move your communications or marketing efforts beyond public education/awareness and into the realm of action-oriented behaviour change, then this introductory social marketing workshop is designed for you.
The growing field of social marketing (not to be confused with social media marketing) seeks to develop and integrate marketing concepts with other approaches to influence behaviours that benefit individuals and communities for the greater social good.
In this workshop, we will take you through the A-Z of crucial social marketing concepts based on the latest research from academics working in this field and the real-life experience of social marketing practitioners. We will help you put together the main components of your own social marketing strategy, saving you countless hours of planning time for your behaviour change initiative.
