Programa de estudos
Discover how to engage customers through relationships
You will explore how organisations choose the right customers to engage with, how they sustain such engagement, and how and why they disengage. As well as analysing how organisations implement relationship marketing, the course will encourage you to apply its ideas to your own role even if you have little or no direct contact with customers. You’ll also be able to use these principles with potential employers.
Relationship marketing isn’t restricted just to business-to-consumer transactions. Whether you are in the public sector, the military or even a technology start-up, you’ll find out how ideas developed in the context of customers are equally applicable to the relationships organisations have with stakeholders, such as investors, and other departments in a large organisation.
