The program is well-structured, beginner-friendly, and packed with real-world applications. Each course covered essential topics like SEO, email marketing, Google Ads, analytics, and e-commerce strategies in a clear and practical manner. The quizzes and hands-on activities helped reinforce the concepts and gave me confidence to apply them in real-life scenarios.

I consider this the most complex course but also one of the most useful. Some instruments learned are a little bit hard to use for beginners such as working with spreadsheets pivot table. As i am interested in marketing strategy i have really enjoyed learning about performance metrics and concepts such as LTM or ROAS or CAC and the relationship between them that answer business questions and guide decisions. I would have liked more about how to calculate CAC. Nice course . Thank you for this model of professionalism!

Excellent course. All the courses have been good so far. Some are just a bit better than others. Of course, I want to finish the program. I consider this the start as there are a lot of the details in the material and links that contribute to being an effective marketer. You can have the best product in the world, but unless people know about it, it will sit on the shelf, unsold. It is a loss to the consumer, the people who work on making it, and the investors that have staked their money on it.

This section of the program for myself was the most challenging. I didn't know the understanding or comprehension of analytics. After completing this section of the program I have a much better understanding of what analytics and reporting the results are all about. Mike the instructor was encouraging and helpful along the way.
