Very good. Perhaps we could have addressed the link between marketing and sales in relation to the audience right from the start. However, the materials and exercises were tailored to the session’s audience.

I’m very pleased with the content. I was surprised by the emphasis placed on commercial policy; I hadn’t realised the impact it had, as I’d always thought of operational marketing and commercial policy as two separate things.
