Started mastering the art of Marketing from AIESEC in JKUAT 2012 This is my final 6 months as the national sensei in MaC before proceeding to my next venture. It’s a short time and with that required high level of dedication. My training tactics are not by the book. Each move might be a lesson. You just have to be sharp.
Eg. The use of the image aside insinuates an anime fanatic. With that you can anticipates some things .
Think of MaC as a legendary sword. The legend of the sword is drawn from its wielder.
Their heart, their ambition ,their vision all portrayed by how they use the sword. In this month , I would like to know this things about you. Using your sword MaC.

“After nearly a year working there, that is what stuck with me. It stuck with me when I left that job to take a job in a marketing department for an architecture firm. It stuck with me when I changed my college major to marketing. It stuck with me when I decided to start my own company and focused my business on marketing. It sticks with me today as I coach start-up businesses or help businesses in crisis - marketing isn't just the job of a single department - it is everyone's job.�
Think about this‌
In today's world, where buyers have made 60% of their decision prior to talking to a sales representative, businesses need to be more aware of how their company is perceived. If a potential client finds out about your company from a file clerk, you want their experience to be positive enough that they consider your company. When they Google you and come across the VP's LinkedIn page, you want them to feel the company. Your Twitter postings should fit the values, mission, and marketing plan. This idea is less about marketing to your customers, and more about building brand recognition through every employee. Now think about it as AIESEC‌
Re write the previous passage in terms of AIESEC‌
AIESEC is a diverse student organization that helps facilitate an individual’s growth. However, the only way that non- AIESECers can get intrigued enough to join AIESEC is if the members effectively embody the AIESEC values in addition to being an observable representation of how AIESEC brings about individual growth. The marketing role should not only lie with the Marketing and communication portfolio, but should be justly conveyed by every AIESEC member. This will ensure that whenever a nonAIESECer comes into contact with any AIESECer; they can sufficiently deduce or even understand what AIESEC represents and how it fits into or complements their lives. This can only be achieved by building the AIESEC brand through every member as opposed to engaging in rigorous marketing activities aimed at capturing the attention of prospective members.
