Why Join The Marketing Institute of Ireland?
There are four strategic reasons for joining us and remaining as a member:
(1) To Build Your Personal Network
Talent alone will not assure your future in today’s economy. And even the latest training and qualifications will be insufficient. No matter how competent, dedicated or self-reliant you are, you can’t do it alone. You need a network, your network. Every outstanding achiever you can think of has created and nurtured a network of contacts. You membership can provide you with a means to build your own network.
(2) To Sharpen Your Marketing Skills
The Institute offers an extensive range of marketing qualifications and high-impact training courses that are tailored to all levels from young marketing graduates establishing their career, up to experienced senior business leaders at executive level. Delivered by seasoned professionals, courses range from e-marketing to brand management, and from sales force management to media handling skills.
(3) To Manage Your Marketing Career
Managing your career in the 21st century requires your total focus, and membership of the Institute will give you a head start. By using your membership proactively and intelligently, you will make the right contacts, become known in the senior marketing community, stay abreast of the major marketing issues of the day, and ensure that your skills are aligned with what businesses require from marketing professionals.
(4) To Have Your Voice Heard
As individuals we are weak, but as a group marketing people can speak with a strong voice. Through your membership of Ireland’s professional body for marketing, you are playing your part in having our voice heard by the broader business community and by policymakers on the island of Ireland. This is essential if we are to have influence in matters that affect our profession and our businesses.
