Marketers have more opportunities to connect and engage with consumers than ever before. Marketers need to recognise that consumers engage with firms and brands at various touch points and across multiple platforms and channels. Keeping brand-customer interactions consistent across multiple channels and ensuring a seamless experience for consumers is the new challenge. Omnichannel marketing puts the customer at the centre of any marketing communications strategy, and then determines the right messages and channels to engage with them. During this module, students will learn about the scope of omnichannel marketing communications, particularly emphasising the integration of offline and online channels. The course will cover the core terms, definitions and concepts, as well as latest theories in marketing communications. It will highlight how communication has fundamentally changed in a digital age, and how marketers can most effectively respond to these changes.
