Creating customer centered presentations that engage customers are essential. Previously I spoke about how to accomplish this.

1. Collect information on your buyers learning style
2.Create presentations and content that will engage buyers with content that is optimized to their learning style making it more engaging

Many companies today strive to be “thought leaders,” but only a select few truly live up to that aspiration. Thought leadership requires a unique point of view, the ability to provide valuable information, and a layered approach to disseminating that information. This presentation explores what makes a thought leader, best practices for thought leadership, and why a content strategy is essential to help companies grow and sustain their thought leadership — helping with everything from navigating internal politics to prioritizing resources.
“Fail forward”
"Every journey begins with a single step"
“Do or do not, there is no try”
There’s no shortage of inspirational mantras, but these sayings offer little advice to surmounting departmental silos, generational gulfs, intimidating power distances and other communication roadblocks that stymie creative collaboration in the workplace.
These barriers exist because the roles we play in a team environment provide us with a set of rules for interacting with each other. Ironically, these rules often prevent us from doing the very thing we’ve come together as a team to do: Collaborate!
In this session, Carolyn and Anna will discuss how to break the rules and transform those roadblocks into building blocks… freeing you and your team to live up to the mantra of your choice.
Learn about common communication barriers; why they exist and how they hinder team innovation.
Understand the value of design synthesis as a group activity, and how play is a central component to the co-creation dynamic.
Explore a type of creative team play called a Spark-a-Thon. You’ve probably heard of the hack-a-thon, a fun and popular way to immerse yourself into a problem and solve it with code. What would happen if this format of time-limited, team-oriented creation was applied to design concepting? The answer: The Spark-a-Thon, which leads to bigger ideas and a stronger team problem-solving dynamic.
Gain tips, tricks, and resources, so that you can go run your own Spark-a-Thon. You'll leave armed with some benefits and results you’ll glean from it, too - just in case you need to build an internal business case for it.
Necessity may be the mother of invention, but play is certainly the father. Join us to learn some serious play!

When you are creating a visuals and want them to look as snazzy as possible, there is a lot you can do to make your images shine with the brightness and glory of a thousand suns. You can add beautiful background textures, have perfectly complimentary fonts, or play with the orientation of your text in different ways. Even so, if you are not careful your text can look boring. Another way to make your presentation slides look spiffy (and certainly not boring) is to change up the way you display your text. Here are ten clever and easy to implement design tips for mixing up your text display and maximizing your design potential.
As more and more people are coming to realize, there is far more to living a truly successful life than just earning a bigger salary and capturing a corner office. Our relentless pursuit of the two traditional metrics of success - money and power - has led to an epidemic of burnout and stress-related illnesses, and an erosion in the quality of our relationships, family life, and, ironically, our careers. In being connected to the world 24/7, we're losing our connection to what truly matters.
Drawing on the latest groundbreaking research and scientific findings in the fields of psychology, sports, sleep, and physiology that show the profound and transformative effects of meditation, mindfulness, unplugging, and giving, I show us the way to a revolution in our culture, our thinking, our workplace, and our lives.

Honor Code:All instances of plagiarism–intentional or unintentional–will result in a report sent to the University Honor Committee and a recommendation of a zero for the assignment, and possibly the course.
Reflections are for students to think about their learning process (metacognition), and help students “own” their learning through considering the assignment or experience in an academic and/or personal context. Students should take this assignment seriously.
NOTE: The reflection process is not a place for students to evaluate their courses or their instructors; student evaluations of instructors and courses that are provided in the final weeks of class are a much better venue for students to express those impressions.

1. What challenges did you face in completing the final persuasive memo? How did you address/troubleshoot them?

Search Engine Marketing - Competitor and Keyword researchETMARK ACADEMY
Over 2 Trillion searches are made per day in Google search, which means there are more than 2 Trillion visits happening across the websites of the world wide web.
People search various questions, phrases or words. But some words and phrases are searched
more often than others.
For example, the words, ‘running shoes’ are searched more often than ‘best road running
shoes for men’
These words or phrases which people use to search on Google are called Keywords.
Some keywords are searched more often than others. Number of times a keyword is searched
for in a month is called keyword volume.
Some keywords have more relevant results than others. For the phrase “running shoes” we
get more than 80M relevant results, whereas for “best road running shoes for men” we get
only 8.
The former keyword ‘running shoes’ has way more competition from popular websites to
new and small blogs, whereas the latter keyword doesn’t have that much competition. This
search competition for a keyword is called search difficulty of a keyword or keyword
difficulty.
In other words, if the keyword difficulty is ‘low’ or ‘easy’, there won’t be any competition
and if you target such keywords on your site, you can easily rank on the front page of Google.
Some keywords are searched for, just to know or to learn some information about something,
that’s their search intention. For example, “What shoe size should I choose?” or “How to pick
the right shoe size?”
These keywords which are searched just to know about stuff are called informational
keywords. Typically people who are searching this type of keywords are top of a Conversion
funnel.
Conversion funnel is the journey that search visitors go through on their way to an email
subscription or a premium subscription to the services you offer or a purchase of products
you sell or recommend using your referral link.
For some buyers, research is the most important part when they have to buy a product.
Depending on that, their journey either widens or narrows down. These types of buyers are
Researchers and they spend more time with informational keywords.
Conversion is the action you want from your search visitors. Number of conversions that you
get for every 100 search visitors is called Conversion rate.
People who are at different stages of a conversion funnel use different types of keywords.

15. Online Publishing
You will publish four online articles throughout the semester. Your publication
represents your personal brand and also the course, thus write to impress.
They will be graded with close scrutiny. Previously written articles may NOT be
repurposed or used in lieu of this assignment. You MUST publish as an
individual and not your company, aka you should not be publishing as part of
your internship or job. All posts must be published via LinkedIn or Medium.
Each student will have a different prompt for each of their four articles.
16. News Journal
You will read and critically assess a recent marketing-related article published
within fourteen days of the assignment deadline. You will write a free-
response journal analyzing the article. Questions to consider:Why is this
newsworthy for you as a marketer? How can brands use information found in
this article to make better business decisions? Which brands are winners and
losers based on this article?
Although the journal is free response, please do not simply summarize the article. All
news journals must be submitted via bCourses with a 250 words minimum. Please
provide the link, title, and the headline of the article at the top of your journal (this

18. Participation
We all learn and participate differently. In this course, participating comes in
several forms to cater to every student’s different style of learning: in class,
office hours, online (Facebook and LinkedIn), and surveys. We expect the class
to be fully engaged in every session, including those for guest speakers and
peer presentations.
Note: Participation is graded holistically, which means while enthusiasm and
engagement during class will be a positive, being distracted or on your phone in
class will be a negative.

Find and choose a thought leader that you would like to interview. I highly
recommend that you reach out to someone who writes in any function of
marketing: digital, social, product, corporate, public relations, and
communications.
They can be from Forbes, Adweek, Adage, Fast Company, Social Media Today, Social Media
Examiner, or LinkedIn. For LinkedIn, the writer/contributor must be an Influencer, Top
Voice, or someone who writes at least once a month with at least 5,000 followers. No
exception will be given to the above criteria.
Documentation of completion will be required and submitted via bCourses. More
information will be given in class.

During the semester, you will be participating in a Twitter chat with
@MillennialVoices, a channel on millennial thought leadership and ideas.
You will be required to create a Twitter account, follow @MillennialVoices, and engage in
at least two Twitter chats. The chat ranges from open discussions on a chosen topic to
guest speakers.
There will be roughly 3-5 of these throughout the semester, thus you should schedule
