Pearson Education Marketing Podcasts

This is an interesting Podcast in the sense that the interviewee, Nicola Shann was able to illustrate the effectiveness of exhibitions as a communication tool and e-mail as an effective method of direct marketing. Be aware of the specialist nature of the exhibition - Nicola does briefly explain it at the beginning of the Podcast. It was for Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council to highlight 'Beacon Status' which they were recently awarded. Nicola interviews explains how the exhibition benefitted both her organisation and the visitors and how effective e-mail is as a DM tool, she does briefly link it to advertising as well but the major communication tool for the event was e-mail.
