Background

Our business, Netmarketing Courses, is based in Auckland, New Zealand. Thanks to the joys of doing business online, we provide our courses to students across New Zealand and increasingly around the world (we’ve had participants from Ireland, Switzerland, France, the British Isles, the US and of course Australia). We’ve had more than 3500 take our courses since we began offering the courses in early 2010.

The courses are written by the principal of Netmarketing Courses, Michael Carney.

Michael is a veteran marketer with an insatiable passion for whatever’s new, different, exciting or interesting in the world of communications (and especially in the digital space). Michael has been in the marketing game for decades, online since 1987 — and can be variously described as a digital marketing trainer, adman, media director, strategist, researcher, copywriter, consultant, author, playwright and dad.

He is probably best known for his many years as Media Director of a number of leading NZ advertising agencies, including MDA Mackay King (now Saatchi & Saatchi) and HKM Rialto (since merged with Colenso BBDO). More recently he worked in strategic roles with MediaCom New Zealand and Grey Worldwide and was Strategic Planning Director for the Media Counsel before setting up Netmarketing Courses.

Michael is currently also the Digital & Strategy Director with the marketing agency collective, Good Gravy.

Michael is the author of a number of books, including “Trade Me Success Secrets: How To Buy and Sell Effectively on NZ’s Favourite Auction Site”, now in its second edition.

Michael was chairman of the NZ Marketing Association’s Network of Digital Marketers from 2009 until March 2013.

Find Us On Facebook

Although we do of course operate a number of Facebook pages we don’t use them as a primary marketing tool, given that our target is businesses who aren’t operating effectively in social media (79% of NZ businesses fall into that category, according to a recent MYOB Business Monitor).

Nevertheless, you’ll find us on Facebook at:

And various other pages that we use for training purposes.

 

Other Social Networks

You also find us on LinkedIn (http://linkedin.com/in/michaelcarney) as well as across multiple X (Twitter) accounts, including:

We’ve also established beachheads on Pinterest (http://pinterest.com/netmarketingnz/), Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat, but mostly to gather information to include in our courses.

 

 

Our Partners

We offer our courses from time to time in partnership with a number of industry professional associations, within New Zealand and offshore. Our partners have included the NZ Marketing Association, the Tourism Industry Association NZ, the NZ Retailers Association, Hospitality New Zealand and others.
