Along with the standard marketing training, I was able to improve my computer and soft skills. I now have a better understanding of how marketing should be done and which marketing elements I should use and take into consideration when marketing a product as a result of my research on the products made by Agromas. Additionally, I had the chance to improve my communication abilities while working on the assignment assigned to me by the staff; as a result, this experience has helped to increase my confidence while speaking with entrepreneur.
