I really enjoyed this course. It was very easy to follow on with Mr. Hartman. He made learning very easy with his conversational tone and relatable references. Good job and thank you. 🤗
Base content is good
Consider merging this course with the next one i.e Digital Analytics for Marketing Professionals: Marketing Analytics in Practice.Many of the readings and slides are common
really liked the summerized pdf files with concepts and definitions well presented, also the resources og blogs and news made it easier to understand the concepts and the industry behind it
A very well covered course. However, it would have been great if examples and best practices were included depicting the use of various digital techniques in a bit more detail. Regards.
