Gain essential skills to improve your digital marketing performance
Do you feel like you move from one marketing activity to the next without really knowing what you achieved? You’re not alone. In fact, the majority of digital marketing is carried out on an ad-hoc basis.
This two-week course explores how you can use digital marketing to effectively drive your organisational outcomes and constantly improve your digital marketing activity.
Align and measure your organisational objectives for success
Even if you are clear about your organisational objectives, that doesn’t mean they are in line with those of your target audience. This course will show you how to apply tools and techniques to help you understand how to achieve what you want for your organisation, while aligning with your target audience personas and user journeys.
You’ll be able to create objectives that can be measured far beyond vanity metrics such as followers and likes. Whilst these volume-based measures may have their place in an overall approach, a focus on core objectives can help you get the most from your digital marketing activity and enable you to make well-informed decisions on channel selection.
Learn how to use a data-driven approach to drive your strategy
You’ll discover how to take a data-driven approach to digital marketing by setting appropriate objectives within your web analytics and have clarity on your different levels of objectives. You’ll be able to draw from your range of newly learnt skills to create successful end-to-end campaigns and activities.
