Marketing MOT
Why do you need to show your characteristics and essence of what you do? Simply, you need to explain how you create value and benefit your clients. You do this by creating a professional look, a complete presentation of your products and services, an in-depth profile, constantly updated content and photos, films and illustrations from your enterprise. As an example, we at Raven's Eye Media create value because "We identify the core essence of your business, collaborate with you while forming a promotional strategy, design and produce the complete palette of marketing material, IT systems including websites and we teach you how to work with your marketing efforts efficiently and easily".

Professional Online
Creating your website content strategy, including other channels like social media, Google Maps, blogs and video channels. In recent years the choice of media types and channels for promoting your enterprise has grown to such an extent it is now very difficult and time consuming to look at all the possibilities available. Deciding where you should invest time and resources has become increasingly more difficult. Your footprints in the digital universe can be shaped so that they are clearly representative of your enterprise. We teach you how to create posts that make sense and to guide people to the real content you wish to share. When approached in the right manner social media, such as YouTube, Linked In, Facebook, Google Plus and Twitter, can be an effective resource. These pages can help your enterprise channel its message more effectively and encourage a more engaged dialogue with business relations and clients, as well as gaining rank with search engines. We form a promotion strategy based on our investigations, research and analysis, identifying the most effective types of marketing material and distribution channels for your enterprise. This will result in your budget for media material and marketing being more efficiently targeted.

Coexistence In Business
An introduction to the theories of Alfie Kohn; his criticisms of competition and rewards have been widely discussed and debated, and he has been described in Time magazine as perhaps the country's (USA) most outspoken critic of education's fixation on grades and test scores.
In our workshop Elizabeth will share her wealth of experience from how her clients, with whom she has worked for over 20 years, prosper from coexisting with other enterprises, including their competitors.
We also touch upon the subject 'coexistence psychology' which deals with how to best meet your 'coexistors' and not see them as the enemy.
"We have been trained not only to compete frantically, but to believe in the value of beating people - and to help our children become winners. Research and experience, however, demonstrate that competition is actually destructive to self-esteem, poisonous to relationships, and counterproductive in terms of learning. Spelling bees, awards assemblies, competitive sports, and even informal contests at home teach children to regard other people as potential obstacles to their own success. The result is that everyone ultimately loses in the desperate race to win.... The alternative is not merely the absence of competition but the construction of caring communities in which people help each other to succeed." (Alfie Kohn)
However, it is both in human nature to compete and to coexist. Which characteristic would we like to encourage in ourselves, and which will make us successful in pursuing what we want in life? While it is widely accepted, but rarely defended, that competition is inevitable, this claim is based on the thesis that competition is part of 'human nature'? Can such a claim be substantiated? Who benefits from this position? Or, can we choose not to let competition drive us, and choose coexistence over it?
This course was held for 100 students at DLD College in London 2016 and 2017 and in Bristol and Cambridge in 2018.
