My name is . I work as the Head of Brand Marketing and Product Marketing Manager for web3, blockchain, and crypto products. With this article, I want to share my thoughts and recommendations on education for marketers who work or plan to work in the field of web3. Daria Volkova I started to learn blockchain marketing in 2017, in practice, without any preparation, and it was like a survival test. At that time, I worked in an advertising agency as a creator for brands and I wanted to try something new. I learned how PR works in the crypto industry, what mining is, why Bitcoin is so valuable, what tokenomics meant and how to write a whitepaper. Now, I know quite a bit and as I learn more, I understand that I need to learn. I plan to systematize my knowledge via educational institutions and make it broader and more profound in technical aspects. There is no single "best" education for marketers, as the field is broad and has many different specializations and career paths. Generally, a strong foundation in marketing principles and excellent communication and analytical skills are essential for success. Marketers interested in utilizing web3 technologies, such as blockchain and decentralized applications, may benefit from learning about these technologies and how they can be used in marketing campaigns and strategies.
