One of the biggest requests The Branded Content Project receives from local media organizations is the opportunity for training. Fortunately, a main pillar of our mission is to offer sales support for media teams across the country. We have several ways for account executives and media professionals to learn from our network of experts.
Our training platform educates and informs individuals on successfully creating, selling and implementing a branded content strategy within your local media organization. This free online video curriculum awards users a branded badge and sales certificate upon completion. The best part? It only takes an hour to complete.
We currently offer two tracks (and are working on a third): Success For Sellers and Branded Content 101. Success For Sellers is our full program intended for those who are or will be actively selling branded content. Users will learn the history of branded content, important statistics to help you sell, best practices and ideal clients to prospect among topics. Branded Content 101 will teach users the basics of branded content and how to collaborate between departments within your media organization. News and creative services professionals should take this shorter track to better understand how to incorporate branded content into the news and editorial side of the business.
Big Branded Calls
On the third Wednesday of every month, we host our Big Branded Call, which features other publishers and experts in the field of content marketing. This is a great opportunity to learn from peers and discover ways to emulate successful concepts at your organization. We also regularly host smaller, more focused calls on various topics. We love to feature success stories from local media outlets in the branded content world, so reach out if you'd like to participate in any way! Get added to the list here!
The Branded Buzz is our weekly video series and e-newsletter that is designed to inform, engage and educate on what we're up to and how we can help.
