SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Feb. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LeadMD, the world’s leading marketing operations agency, is launching Marketemy, a 12-week experience accelerator for digital marketers. The paid program will enable participants to gain access to marketing curriculum, first-hand marketing experience and cutting edge technology from within one of the top agencies in the modern marketing space.
This first of its kind incubator includes mentorship from leading marketing practitioners and on-the-job-experience with today’s cutting edge companies from high-growth startups to Fortune 500 companies. Currently, Marketemy is open exclusively to senior-level students and recent college graduates in Arizona. Individuals will be selected from a highly curated pool of candidates and at the end of the 12-week program one student will receive a full-time job offer from LeadMD.
“The hard truth is that there simply isn’t a resource available to students and would-be marketers that prepares them with the knowledge and real world experience they need to land jobs in today’s fast-changing, tech-forward marketing climate,” said Justin Gray, CEO of LeadMD. “We developed Marketemy to act as a stepping stone from college to career. Employers are starved for resources, and yet, candidates can’t get access to the experiences they need to fill these roles. It’s time we stepped up to help solve this pervasive problem by not only creating talent but also paying them to gain the education they need.”
Marketemy’s 12-week program is broken up into three parts. The first two weeks introduces a digital marketing learning path, which includes both online and in-person workshops on proven strategies, tactics and technologies. During the next four weeks, participants will work on marketing campaigns in a proving ground that includes webinar and event management, Google Analytics administration for content planning and engagement, marketing automation, social media and more. The final six weeks is comprised of actual real-world, front to back program management. At this stage participants will have developed the skill set to build campaigns of their own, and will begin working on projects with LeadMD's clients.
“LeadMD realized that if we weren’t finding the right marketing talent, we’d have to create it,” Gray said. “Marketemy is the on-the-job training employees want but most employers don’t or can’t provide. This program is tailored to bridge the knowledge gap so Arizona’s top marketing talent will be set up to succeed and want to stay. At the end of this program our students will have worked for some of the top brands in the U.S. and one will walk away with a job offer to work at LeadMD. ”
Since its launch in 2010, LeadMD has helped thousands of enterprise teams implement and execute marketing strategies to become better marketers and achieve revenue success. To learn more about LeadMD’s Marketemy and to apply online for the first experience accelerator, visit http://marketemy.com
