Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, if you are interested in getting the skills you need to run your hotel's digital marketing without spending too much time at it. Brush up on your existing digital marketing skills and learn the hottest techniques on how to create content that gets results. Work on your hotel marketing every week and put your learning into practice. By the end of this training, you will be confident about organic and paid social media, email marketing, and measuring the results.
Training will be delivered via Zoom on Wednesday mornings, 11am - 1pm. You will be part of a small group of like-minded people who also want to improve their digital skills and get set for running campaigns in 2023. There is great learning through sharing, and you will be encouraged to reflect on the practical exercises by putting what you learn into practice every week.
It starts on Wed 15 February and runs for 6 weeks. There are 6 training sessions of 2 hours each, delivered by Zoom 11am-1pm. Training will be completed by 22 March - just in time for Spring. You will be ahead already by working on your Spring / Summer 2023 campaigns in the course with professional supervision and guidance.
The cost is €600 for 6 live masterclasses of 2 hours each. You can book in for a one-to-one mentoring session. If you submit your homework, it will be reviewed by Ireland's top digital marketing consultants. All this, plus always-on support by email throughout the programme at a lower cost than any other digital marketing programme out there.
Don't waste time telling yourself you can learn everything from YouTube. You can't!
Firstly, there are too many hours of videos on YouTube and the quality is inconsistent and nothing has been validated. Secondly, even if you do find hotels marketing content that is of a sufficiently high quality, the chances are it has been made by YouTubers who are from the US, India or other highly populated areas. The fact is, if you are marketing to a smaller audience like we are in Ireland, you've got to learn from an Irish trainer because only they will have the insights on how to adjust things to appeal to a smaller sample size.
No. You don't have to be an expert, but you must be familiar with the basic principles of marketing, be fairly savvy on Instagram or TikTok and have created at least some content - visual or video, long form or stories.
