I did Momentum... Now I've started My Own Business
Peggy Kennedy tells us about her Momentum experience...
 |
"When I got made redundant in the economic downturn, I found I needed to upskill to compete in today’s job market. Employers want candidates that are skilled for the role but who can also add value to their business. The Marketing, Advertising, Public Relations and Sales course offered by Dublin Business School provided the perfect solution for me.
The DBS lecturers provided valuable insight by sharing their own relevant business knowledge. The lecturers and career guidance staff assisted me to refocus my career objectives and job search techniques.
I found Dublin Business School helped me to get more than a qualification. Applying research skills learnt, I have now launched a new business venture called www.iadmin.ie. I provide marketing and administration services to businesses that are not in a position to afford a full-time paid position. Business trends researched showed that this ‘Shared Services’ Business Model is well positioned worldwide in today’s economy.
On completion of the course, I had the confidence to prepare a marketing and advertising campaign and to present a sales pitch in a business environment. More importantly, I learned how to market myself and optimise my online presence. I became my own first marketing client."
