    Course 1: Ideation and Creation

    Ideas are fuelled by consumption, not creativity

    • Ideas are the backbone of Digital PR, and make or break a campaign. Yet, while it’s considered to be the most difficult aspect, the investment in training to get better at it is often neglected.

    • You may think you’re unable to come up with ideas because you’re not ‘creative’. When the truth is, you were just probably never taught how.

    • Through examples, you’ll identify the patterns of successful campaigns, and learn the thought processes required to come up with more ideas, and better ideas that work.

    Ideation and Creation Modules

    1. Introduction

    Learn everything you need to know before you start building links with Digital PR. Like, wtf is digital PR, how does it differ from regular ole PR, and why the heck are we all so obsessed with links anyway?

    2. Going Viral

    We’ll be going through examples of campaigns that went so global that even your mum was talking about them. We’ll break them down and take them apart to reveal the ‘formula’ that makes stories go viral.

    Ideas are fuelled by consumption, not creativity. Through countless examples, you’ll learn to identify patterns that make a campaign work and the thought processes required to conceive your own ideas.

    FAQs

    • Is this a theoretical course?

      The course contains some theoretical elements necessary for background context and understanding, but it is not a theoretical course.

      It’s definitely useful to learn theory, but on its own, it’s not much use because it needs to be translated and applied.

    • How is the course presented?

      The course is presented as a still video presentation and audio voiceover. Which I believe is the best format to learn for a course of this nature!

    • Do I have to start the course on a specific date or time?

      No, you can start the course whenever you’d like!

    • How long will I have access to the course?

      You’ll have access to the course for a year (365 days) it won't auto renew, and you can expect more content and lessons to be added over time.

    • How long will the course take me?

      The Ideation and Creation course is approximately 90 minutes, while the Digital PR Course is around 4 hours.

    • I am evaluating this for our team, do you offer group discounts?
