Recruiters specialised in Digital:
– do not give weight to trivial ‘Attendance Certificates’ from courses of training organisations not specialised in digital or perhaps from online courses not even really attended
– they prefer ‘skills certificates’ obtained only after passing an exam. For the search and selection of truly qualified and high-profile people.
THEY KNOW
the few professional training schools that are highly specialised in digital marketing, and their opinion of them is based on the specialisation and seriousness of the exams they hold before certifying aspiring Digital Marketing Managers
THEY ASK
the same to show him/her online pages of companies, projects and activities carried out by him/her in the past, in order to assess his/her real digital skills and competences, demonstrable through projects that really exist and can be demonstrated online
THEY BELIEVE
only to what you are able to prove you have done and not so much to what you say you know how to do. Because in the digital world, everything is online and therefore really demonstrable through completed projects or activities.

Work Experience works
DIGITAL STRATEGY online & offline integration: overview of all major online marketing channels. From SEO to email marketing, through social media to mobile, we will look at what criteria should guide us in choosing the optimal mix for different types of companies and businesses. We will then discover channel integration strategies aimed at maximising the contribution of each channel in the cycle that starts from traffic generation and must lead to conversion into sales, also considering offline aspects.
SEM & DISPLAY ADVERTISING convert the traffic generated on your site: this module teaches how to use various PPC (Pay Per Click) type tools with which to implement targeted strategies in terms of location, days, times as well as interests, age and sex of the user. These include Google Ads and its Keyword advertising and Display Advertising (banner) functions.
SEO (Search Engine Optimization): activities aimed at optimising your presence on search engines in order to generate traffic of users interested in your products and services. SEO is a historical discipline that has undergone, and continues to undergo, radical changes in recent years, becoming the most holistic of web marketing disciplines.
INBOUND MARKETING & LEAD GENERATION: through this emerging discipline we will define the sequence of optimal actions (Funnels) to be taken by visitors to your website in order to maximise the likelihood that they will convert into customers. We will understand the concept of lead, optin and how to attribute to each medium (SEO, SEM, email, social…) the correct role in the right phase of the conversion process.
WEBSITE CREATION & WORDPRESS: the website is the starting and finishing point of every web marketing action and as such is a dynamic tool that must be improved and modified on a daily basis. In this module we will teach you how to build it using WordPress, the CMS that allows you to create and manage websites without the need for programming and design skills.
AFFILIATE MARKETING: the new business activity traditionally carried out through agents and sales networks in the traditional offline world is increasingly finding a counterpart online in affiliate marketing. We will learn its principles, intermediaries and software to create, manage and remunerate one’s own online sales force, as well as to generate remunerative traffic in proposing third party products and services on one’s own sites and web pages.
WEB ANALYTICS BASIC: we will teach how to use software, primarily Google Analytics, useful for acquiring business intelligence information on the needs, behaviour, tastes and preferences of one’s audience. The collection and interpretation of data will then be used to implement consequent web marketing actions, the results of which will be measured and interpreted again for further changes in communication strategy. Other tools will include A/B testing tools, heat maps, webmaster tools and more.
E-MAIL MARKETING: DEM (Direct Email marketing) is a historically outdated tool but still extremely effective in stimulating actions that often lead to online sales. We will look at all the technological, communicative and copywriting tricks to improve the performance of this tool.
MOBILE MARKETING: we will discover how through Smartphones and Tablets it is now possible to reach one’s audience and create integrated strategies with other media. We will understand how to design Mobile Apps, mobile advertising campaigns, SMS marketing, mobile couponing, taking into account the high speed at which users use content.
E-COMMERCE STRATEGIES & MANAGEMENT: we will define the critical success factors of an online sales project, analysing for each of them the Best Practices that produce the best results. We will discuss online sales channels, technological choices, although offline topics such as range choices, warehouse management (Drop Shipment), customer service and organisational set-up will not be missing.
LOCATION BASED MARKETING: the development of technologies and the mobile world now make it possible to carry out marketing actions based on the geographic location of our potential customers, enabling us to reach them in the right place and at the right time to optimise our advertising spend. We will discover in this module the ways and software to do this and how to intercept potential customers with geolocation.
FACEBOOK ADVERTISING: we will set up advertising campaigns with all the tools Facebook provides to reach millions of potential customers in a targeted manner based on gender, age, domicile and interests. From Facebook adv to content sponsoring, from Offers to Facebook remarketing and then analysing the results with Facebook Insights.
E-commerce/Web Advanced modules
E-COMMERCE SOFTWARE & MAGENTO: we will analyse the pros and cons of the various possible ways of choosing your E-commerce platform, evaluating the risks and opportunities of each, from the use of proprietary solutions to the choice of a Content Management System software. We will show why we favour the choice of Open Source solutions and in particular the Magento CMS. We will create online stores using Magento itself and teach how to use its main functions: from product catalogue creation to product card enrichment, from marketing & sales to order and warehouse management.
SEM ADVANCED + Programmatic & real time bidding: we will understand how the emerging technologies of Programmatic Buying and Real Time Bidding are giving a new direction to the SEM sector and we will understand the logic on which these technologies are based. We will also delve into the opportunities of Retargeting/Remarketing technologies and try out the tools made available (such as DSPs) by the main players in the sector.
SEO ADVANCED: we will present the latest updates in search engine algorithms (Google Panda, Penguin, Hummingbird and others) that bring about significant changes for SEO specialists. In particular, the increasing need for integration between this discipline and the issues of content marketing, social media, and semantics in order to produce results. We will also propose some advanced tools.
USER EXPERIENCE: You will learn how to design immaterial design, how to create an effective strategy to improve the user experience on a website across the board. You will understand the difference between UX and UI because to be truly useful to users visiting a site, graphics are not enough: the interface is not the solution. We will explain what the user experience is, which elements are important for a successful project: website usability, content strategy, visual design, information architecture, user research, graphic interaction and many others, as well as the tools that are indispensable for maximum effectiveness of the user experience.
WEB ANALYTICS ADVANCED: The ever increasing availability of information in the world of digital marketing requires the ability to know how to use tools capable of integrating it effectively such as Google’s Universal Analytics. In this module, we will learn how to integrate mobile and desktop data with data from social media and social analytics. However, we will also discover and use A/B testing and eye tracking tools useful for improving our understanding of the preferences, habits, and interests of our potential customers.
E-COMMERCE REGULATIONS: we will present all the key issues to consider when opening an e-commerce site: right of withdrawal, privacy, use of Cookies, online contracts, EU and non-EU VAT, VIES (Vat Information Exchange System) database registration. We will also discover the differences to be considered for B2B sales compared to Business to Consumer sales and we will see the new regulations governing the sector at European level.
