Katy's Journey through the Digital Marketing Strategy Skills Bootcamp
03 Apr 2023
In a world where the digital landscape evolves at breakneck speed, staying ahead in the marketing game requires a constant thirst for knowledge and skill enhancement.
For Katy Bishop, a Content Marketing Assistant at Niche Recruitment Ltd, this pursuit of continuous learning led her to embark on a transformative journey through the Digital Marketing Strategy Skills Bootcamp.
“I was around seven months into my first marketing role fresh out of university. My manager asked if I’d be open to doing the course to level up my marketing knowledge.”
For Katy, the emphasis on strategy provided her with a renewed appreciation for the fundamental steps in planning effective campaigns.
"Marketing can move extremely quickly, and sometimes it’s hard to remind yourself of the foundations and formulas that help to make marketing work. For me, it was all about strategy, and going over those vital steps in planning an effective campaign."
However, her journey wasn't solely confined to strategic insights; the Skills Bootcamp also unearthed unexpected personal growth.
"On a personal note, I loved learning about leadership skills and presenting. I found the sessions really insightful and uncovered some tips that will stay with me throughout my career."
Working collaboratively within a team to tackle real-world client briefs, participants had the chance to apply their freshly acquired knowledge immediately.
"Working within a team to answer a client brief allowed everyone to put their learnings into practice in an effective way. You’d get to see how all the separate topics and modules come together to allow you to create a perfect marketing campaign from conception to execution. It also allowed us to learn from our other people’s knowledge and experience, giving us multiple perspectives on marketing strategy.”
Perhaps the most profound outcome of Katy's Skills Bootcamp journey is the confidence she now exudes as a marketer.
"The biggest benefit that I have experienced as a result of this course is a newfound confidence in my ability as a marketer. I can now offer insight and knowledge to my team that I otherwise would have lacked the confidence to suggest."
As she looks back on her transformative journey, Katy has a piece of advice for those embarking on their own marketing careers:
"The best advice I can give is to never stop trying to develop your marketing skills. No matter how advanced you are, marketing is always developing, so you must be too."
