Description

Master the fundamentals of digital marketing and launch first campaigns that can genuinely be measured
- 3 days — 21 h
- In-person or virtual
- Foundation
- Up to 6 participants
Taking charge of digital marketing in a company often means inheriting a website, two social media accounts and an agency contract already under way. Activities follow one another without a common thread and no one can say what each one actually delivered.
Three days to put a complete framework in place: measurable objectives, channel selection, first campaigns and a monthly dashboard. This session remains at operational level and does not cover multi-channel budget arbitration or advanced campaign optimisation.
Learning objectives
- Define measurable digital marketing objectives
- Optimise website pages for organic search
- Build an editorial line and a publishing calendar
- Create an email campaign or a simple paid campaign
- Track results in a monthly dashboard
