Unlike the saying by George Bernard Shaw “Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach,” we believe those who can have a duty to teach others. Which is why the WordPlay Marketing Academy was launched: to offer business owners and marketing professionals an educational resource to discover best practices, learn new tools, and receive expert instruction. The WordPlay Marketing Academy offers our online course, How To Create a Kick Butt Marketing Plan, plus live workshops, webinars, and private training for individuals and in-house teams.
