Marketing is changing

Marketers no longer just sit in a room and come up with catch slogans like in Mad Men. They’re now required to be more analytical, more technical, and take ownership of a larger part of the traditional customer funnel

What does that mean?

It means that your traditional education and your traditional understanding of marketing are becoming obsolete. Companies are no longer hiring marketers to sit and watch over ad campaigns; they’re hiring marketers that can not only plan, design, and run their own campaigns but also influence and understand their products on a much deeper level

In this course we’re going to focus on both core marketing fundamentals but also on the more advanced growth marketing strategies that are becoming more and more in demand. We’ll cover the basics that any marketer should know and then expand into day to day actionable skills you’re going to be required to have. In the second portion of the course we’ll focus on how you can set yourself up for success in the marketplace and how to find, vet, and lock down a job in Marketing or Growth.

Who should take this class?

The class is designed for 3 types of students:

1) Anyone with a passion for marketing and specifically wants to learn in demand growth marketing strategies

2) Anyone who wants to transition to marketing and get a job 

3) Anyone who wants to apply growth techniques to their own ventures and run their campaigns the same way a professional firm would

Who this course is for:

• Anyone who is interested in marketing and wants to start a career in it
• Anyone with basic familiarity with marketing concepts that want to specifically learn the discipline growth marketing
• Anyone looking to transition into marketing or growth
• Anyone who is interested in running more efficient campaigns and employing professional long funnel approaches to their own ventures

Hi, I’m Evan Kimbrell. Thanks for checking out my course. 

**My courses have been featured in Forbes, CNN, Entrepreneur Magazine, BusinessInsider, BuzzFeed, Mashable, TheNextWeb, The Daily Beast, & Techcrunch**

Currently, I’m the Founder and Director of Sprintkick, a full-service, referral-only digital agency based out of San Francisco. Over the past four years I’ve overseen the development and launch of over 100 web and mobile apps. Clients range from two-man bootstrapping startups to multibillion dollar Fortune 100s like Wal-Mart, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and GNC. 

Prior to Sprintkick I worked as a VC for a new firm called Juvo Capital, based out of L.A. I spearheaded the firm’s expansion into Silicon Valley and into the Consumer Web tech category.

In the long long ago, I was a co-founder for an educational software startup called ScholarPRO that raised a ton of money and then spectacularly blew up (in the bad way). Before it exploded like the Death Star, I went through five tech incubators (yes, five): Tech Stars, Excelerate Labs, MassChallenge, Babson Venture Program, and Sparkseed. 

Hope you enjoy my courses!
