Material was easy to follow, no issues loading content; the presenters first hand accounts and personal experiences as employees were relevant and engaging and I enjoy the idea of self-paced learning.

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.

Having completed the first course of this series I am looking forward to the subsequent courses. As an introductory course, the materials are presented in a clear and concise manner and easy to follow and navigate. What I enjoyed most are the personal stories of individuals' journeys that spoke to me on a personal level; it really made a human connection to the why of taking this course.

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.

Some learners may find certain concepts more interesting than others, depending on their background and career goals. For example, those with a passion for creativity and content creation may be drawn to aspects of content marketing and social media strategy, while individuals with a strong analytical mindset may be fascinated by data analytics and performance tracking.

Easy to understand and good to get your first touchpoints with this industry, at first I didn't know that there are seven segments to this course that are all separated into different "courses" so I was a bit disappointed at first, but then I got informed about that, and now I'm looking forward to the 6 courses that are up ahead

Thank you for this high quality course

I've been in digital marketing for 5 years, and I took this course to make sure I had all the gaps in my knowledge filled. I've also taken MANY courses, and this is by the best I've taken. Plus, it's the least expensive! You can learn it all in a month for only $60 (or less if you just take this course). Many marketers will charge $2000 or more for this knowledge.

Incredibly insightful and thorough course, I have learned a lot about the foundations to marketing and have come to understand that marketing is not as straight forwards as it seems. It considers a lot of various processses and steps that a customer takes and what strategy would work best and how these strategies have to be adaptable to multitudes of situations.

Easy to digest and very well executed. I like how the videos were bite sized but jam-packed with useful information. There is also a summary at the end of every video. What I personally found most useful was the captions that I could read to follow the video. Being a visual learner, I prefer to read to digest information. Thank you for the opportunity, Google!
