I have studied and worked in the automotive industry for years now. So, I decided to put together this course for everyone who is passionate about Luxury Automotive or might need some knowledge for work or university studies.
This course is the result of research and consulting work that I have done with students in business and marketing university majors. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you will find important insights about the trends and workings of this business, its strategies, and dynamics that are relevant to other sectors of luxury as well.
The Luxury automotive sector is evolving rapidly and it has almost gone full circle since its birth. In a world where luxury is expanding and customer expectations are higher than ever, an automotive business cannot remain "just" about selling cars anymore. It is crucial then to understand how businesses evolved and where a manager can go to further improve the reach of a brand and create opportunities.
This course will provide you with a complete picture of the evolution of the industry since its early days, and understand who the key players are and the main differences that identify each company's strategy. Most importantly, it will hopefully help you start your career in this business.
