Marketers, picture yourself as architects. Just like architects craft a strong foundation before building a structure, marketers should lay down a solid groundwork before diving into campaigns. We’re introducing the concept of Marketing Choice Architecture, a method where marketers meticulously design decision options. This approach empowers marketers to stay updated and streamline their decision-making process by utilizing the right tools, criteria, templates, and frameworks.

TESTIMONIALS
“By applying the marketing knowledge we learned from regularly attending trainings by Mansmith & Fielders, we were able to grow the sales of Bioderm Family Soap 500% in five years. This, in a category that is growing by less than 5% a year. What’s more, our brand now has its own slice whenever a pie chart is presented to show market share. Whereas before, we were anonymously lumped under the slice called “others”. Thanks to Josiah. The one on one session with you was especially helpful!” – Stanley, VP, IPI Cebu
