"Performance from local marketing is a key priority for all of our brands, big and small. Kenshoo Local is a singularly unique product, and the certification program enables us to make the most of it to scale high volumes of campaigns rapidly and profitably," said Rich Devine, global SVP of Possible.
The Kenshoo Local certification program, complimentary and available only to Kenshoo Local clients, consists of instructional videos and exams. Three levels of educational resources and exams address varying knowledge levels:
- 100 Level - Onboarding and Launch
- 200 Level - Campaign Management
- 300 Level - Advanced Optimization
Once individuals study the educational resources, they can test their comprehension of each level through an exam to achieve Kenshoo Local [Pro] status. Agencies with more than 20 percent - or a minimum of five people - passing all three levels can earn Kenshoo Local [Pro Agency] status.
"The Kenshoo Local certification program unlocks the potential of some of our most powerful functionality for advertisers and agencies," said William Martin-Gill, general manager of Kenshoo Local. "The certification program builds the skills necessary to successfully manage large volumes of individual search marketing campaigns, and the Kenshoo Local [Pro] certification assures mastery of local search marketing."
"We've gained a valuable competitive advantage by leveraging Kenshoo Local and as early adopters of the Kenshoo Local certification program," said Dave Levy, partner at WSI Digital Marketing. "While working to achieve Kenshoo Local [Pro Agency] status, we improved workflow, enabled more strategic planning and better performance for our clients."
