What you could do
All businesses need to find new customers and persuade them to buy things or use their services. Otherwise, companies would go out of business.
This is where sales and marketing comes in: finding the needs and wants of people, developing something that meets that need and creating a desire for it.
With the huge growth in social and digital media, digital marketing is now a key part of the strategy for most businesses, helping them to increase their presence both online and out in the real world.
Apprenticeships include:
- Sales executive
