Very well written course and interactive discussions helped me learn basics of Digital marketing. The graphical information was helpful, quiz was fun and popup quiz in the video keeps you alert while watching the video. I thought it would be boring but Coursera reminders and status kept me motivated to finish this segment of the course. Its a long journey but well started. All the best to all students and learners.

The course itself was a great start and foundation for all the basics around digital marketing and e-commerce. I look forward to continuing with the subsequent courses. I'm just disappointed that I have to wait 15 days for more applications for financial aid for those courses, as I can't afford it just on my own. I was under the assumption that my financial aid had approved me for the entire certification program.

This course gave me broader view of online marketing techniques. Though I didn't get an in-depth knowledge but I got the understanding of where I stood in my new career path. This has in turn motivated me to follow my new seen passion with greater zeal so I want to complete all the course in this certificate so I can develop my skill to a new level where I can be better prepared to complete my ambitions and goals.

Strong foundation. Lots of great applicable information. Very well structed and organized. Could be shortened with the integration of reading dictation software while also increasing course awareness for the target market of the hearing impaired. Overall, should be used as a foundational class in high school aged students and broken down into two semester course for middle school age students. Great job!

j'ai été particulièrement surpris par l'ampleur et la profondeur de l'analyse des données nécessaire pour optimiser les campagnes de marketing numérique. Les concepts de la valeur vie client et de l'attribution basée sur les données m'ont semblé particulièrement intéressants, car ils montrent à quel point il est crucial de comprendre le comportement des clients pour maximiser les revenus.

Me encantó la introducción a este tema; nos guió paso a paso. Pensé que sería más difícil entender los conceptos, pero gracias a las herramientas que nos brindaron, se me facilitó mucho. Las preguntas que nos hacían me hicieron reflexionar y profundizar en lo que estaba aprendiendo. También disfruté la interacción con el coach; le hacía preguntas y él me explicaba de una manera sencilla.

I really loved the interviews from different people who came from non-marketing backgrounds. I also really loved that the dialogue was transcribed and we could highlight and save notes from them. It made things so much smoother. I also love the positive side of marketing that was explored that it's a way to bring value to people and make a positive difference. This was a great course.

This gives really great insights for a beginner with all the required marketing jargons in the form of glossory either after every week or completion of a specific part of the course. Its really a great way to kickstart one's learning graph about digital marketing and e-commerce and hone your skills about how to reach and eventually convert target customers into loyal ones.
