Girls in Marketing

A reintroduction post on LinkedIn should be obligatory every couple of months 🤝 So, here goes… we’re Girls in Marketing 👋 We’re a learning provider and media hub for marketers, empowering women to build a career they love. Girls in Marketing was created by Olivia (below) as an informal community initiative on social media in 2019. The idea came from a personal struggle to connect with other women working in the industry. Girls in Marketing was formally founded as a business in 2020 and it is now a female-led start-up with a thriving community of hundreds of members and a following of over a quarter of a million on social media. This is something a lot of people don’t know about us 😳 We’re a female-led, community-focused business on a mission to revolutionise the marketing industry for women by making the industry less overwhelming and more inviting. Here are a number of different ways you can get involved with Girls in Marketing: 💻 The Girls in Marketing Membership A learning platform and community for marketers providing accessible and interactive education, with our monthly and annual memberships. We encourage all of our community to pitch the membership to your employer as part of your training budget. 👥 Team Training Opportunities Support your marketing team with the training and resources they need to grow with our Team Memberships. We have a wealth of opportunities to allow your team to flourish and you to become a better marketing manager overall.

From career progression to gender bias, no topic is off-limits! Recent reviews include “It is so informative yet SO entertaining, and somehow manages to avoid the trap of becoming patronising” 👏 🤝 Sponsorships and Partnerships Our Head of Programmes and Events, Emma, works with trusted partners on projects that will benefit our community. We’re currently working on two VERY excited programmes (👀👀👀) and looking to partner with brands on these. Reach out to Emma to chat about getting your brand in front of our community. Now, that’s enough about us. Introduce yourself in the comments, we want to know more about YOU 🙋♀️

Looking to build your own website? Whether you’re building your side hustle, wanting to build an online portfolio or looking to offer freelance services, we have the perfect tool for you. Did you know that 88% of online consumers are less likely to return to a site after a bad experience? 😳 Having a well-designed website that works is essential, and that’s where Hostinger comes in. With the in-platform AI website builder features, Hostinger makes building a website so much easier as zero coding experience is required to build the website of your dreams saving you tons of money on external site designers 🤖 We’re huge advocates for creating your own experience and creating a website with Hostinger is definitely a great addition to your CV 👏 Our very own Founder, Olivia, recently experienced a need for her own website. Alongside Girls in Marketing, Olivia regularly works with brands personally and needed a site to manage her speaking opportunities. Olivia has now created her website using Hostinger for her personal brand and the site is thriving (we’ll pop the link below in the comments) 🤩 You can check out Hostinger to create your own website here: https://lnkd.in/eGDDXqcr To be completely transparent, we work with Hostinger as the headline sponsor for The Girls in Marketing Podcast and we are certain you’ll love the tool too! #Ad #Website

It’s official… we are four weeks away from the start of the Digital Marketing Growth Programme. This is where the nerves start to kick in! Girls in Marketing has always been about creating opportunities for amazing women in the marketing industry and our programmes align so closely with that mission 🤝 We’ve been overwhelmed by the support for DMGP2024 so far: 🔥 3,500+ programme applications 🔥 1,000+ UGC mentions about the programme We always try to mix up the marketing for each programme and, with each launch, we always learn a lot. So today, we are sharing three key lessons we learnt from the launch of DMGP2024 and what marketers can learn too: 1. Anticipation is key 🔑 We trialled a number of ways to build anticipation for the programme, including teasing our very own ‘The GiM Times’ newspaper to announce the launch date. Our ‘Register Your Interest’ form also helped us understand how many people would be interested in completing the programme too. 2. Think of your audience's next steps 🤔 When we created the Digital Marketing Internship Programme, we constantly had to review our audience and consider what we could offer next once most of our community had completed the DMIP2023 or DMIP2022. 3. Information overload can cause overwhelm 😳 The Digital Marketing Growth Programme is a huge project and all participants need a lot of information to understand what is involved to take part. 4. Things don’t always go to plan 😬 Although we carefully plan every step of the process, sometimes things don’t go quite the way you imagine but having a great team and a positive attitude means you can pretty much get through anything! Our first Digital Marketing Growth Programme will be hosted in July for anyone currently working in the marketing industry, and our third Digital Marketing Internship Programme will be hosted for aspiring marketers in September 2024 (more information coming soon!) 🚀 Our programmes require a lot of hard work but they are always so rewarding to see our community benefit from them. We’re so lucky to be working with Hostinger and Semrush Academy on this programme. The brands will be sharing some of their expertise within the programme so you can get more insider knowledge from industry experts. If you haven’t already, make sure you apply to our Digital Marketing Growth Programme here: https://lnkd.in/eRxa7z-e Who’s excited about the programme? 🙌 P.s.
