Services Social Media Strategy Competence

Strategy is the most neglected field in social media and at the same time is crucial for the success of all efforts.

The strategy competence for the potential-based strategy model enables social media strategies to support the business model and the development of social media strategies with higher competitive quality. Companies are supported by educating and training their employees and by coaching and consulting.

This website aims to make this strategy competence as easy and inexpensive to access as possible. This means that social media users can easily start the strategy course immediately. They only incur costs to the extent that they use additional services such as individual support in building strategy competence or proof of qualification via the pbsm.strategist qualification.
