Born Out of Necessity

What Business Owners Need

AMI provides certification training to elevate educated marketers to become professional marketing consultants. The industry is rampant with over-priced, sub-par and unethical marketing services. Local businesses are the largest victims. The solution? Business owners need an in-house marketing director to handle their marketing goals, strategy, budget, providers and ROI analysis to give them the best probability of success. They need someone to fight for their growth and handle their marketing dollars as if it were they own company.

With the average marketing director costing $80k annually in the USA, no wonder why local business owners rarely hire one. Even if they did hire one, a marketing director does not perform the work in a marketing campaign, they manage and oversee the work and the results. So, even an in-house marketing director would be tasked to hire and manage outside marketing providers.

Who in the world could provide marketing director level consulting, SPECIALIZES in managing 3rd party marketing providers, and is willing to fight for a business owner’s success2nd

What Marketing Agencies Should Be

Small marketing agencies (SMAs) are modeled as service providers, not consultancies. The issue is they are reselling services under a white label and make their profit by up-pricing the service. However, this business model is not proving to work well for SMAs and certainly is not the best solution for a client. Instead of well educated SMA’s providing elite consulting services to their clients where they transparently manage the 3rd party marketing providers and fight for the client’s ROI, the majority of marketing agencies are just sending white label work reports to their clients and wonder why their clients’ businesses are not growing and why they are not growing as well.

Business owners fall victim, marketers are selling themselves short and both parties lose. This can all change!

AMI provides training to change the heart and soul of small marketing agencies from resellers into professional consultancies that are modeled to fill the marketing director void and give business owners what they deserve, a fighting chance at success. SMAs are taught to consult at the highest level and transparently hire, fire, manage and quality control all 3rd party providers, exactly the way it should be.

The Education

Consultant to Consultancy Integrative Learning

Within the AMI Business Program (Professional Consultant to Consultancy Certification Program), students learn how to be a professional consultant, build a consultancy and integrate their consulting capabilities as billable services within their consultancy. The education format of AMI is very simple. Learn marketing consulting skills in parallel with how to apply them as billable consulting services within YOUR consultancy.

The absolutely huge barrier to transcending from marketing education to billable consulting services is the process, system and level of organization required to make it happen. With AMI’s integrative learning approach you will never learn anything you can’t charge a client for. 1-to-1 integrative learning at it’s finest.

Who is this for?

The AMI Consultant to Consultancy Business Program is specifically designed to educate a consultant who intends to build a marketing consultancy around their skills. The ideal profile of an AMI student is a marketer who is currently reselling services from a 3rd party provider or planning on offering marketing services to clients. Many marketers are weary about reselling services, especially under a white label, and are looking for a better way to service their clients. AMI certification training provides the best business model to provide elite consulting AND services to your clients without having to resell or white label. Students should have a baseline understanding of online marketing because education offered by AMI is not for newbies in the marketing industry.
