Media Buying Academy's Boot Camp
Tampa, FL
When it comes to training media buyers and planners, no one
does it better than the Media Buying Academy. We don't just
teach formulas, number crunching, and terminology. We teach
our students how to take control of the media buying
process......from "doing your homework before the rep ever
walks into your office," to comparing "apples to apples," to
powerful, proven, negotiating techniques. Let's face it. The
dirty little secret in Media today is still buyer
inexperience and lack of training. Four and a half tough
days at any BootCamp session will put those worries to rest.
