Help! My Boss Says I Have To Go Learn Online Marketing In 1 Week Or Get Fired by koch: 1:24pm On Apr 04, 2017 |
So I work at a creative branding & design agency where i head the design unit & we partner with some digital agencies My major work is to come up with jaw dropping designs that is supposed to be used for online marketing where we hand over to digital agencies to manage the placements and all. l But yesterday, 1 of our biggest clients called a meeting saying that our designs were just fine but was not converting people enough (meaning people were not clicking on the ads). So he has lost a lot of money which i believe its clearly not my fault. It should be the digital agency's fault Then the next thing, my boss was apologizing that we will re-do the deigns and do the digital marketing ourselves to help him cut cost saying that though i work in the design unit, I know how to do online marketing just coz i am vibrant on social media. After the meeting, I told him I have no idea what to do. He said i don't have a choice but to learn it in max of 1 week or get fired because he musn't loose the client & now i have no idea where or how to go about it. |

koch: I was in your shoes before. If you are in Lagos, a company helped me out when I was in that scenario. IIHT Nigeria. I will soon write about that so that you can compare. Cheaper courses and they can customize just for you. If you are in Lagos, holla at me. |

Everything u need to know about online marketing is on the internet, go through youtube. Also download an app called 'cousera' either from play store or appstore, they run any program online, some are free while some u pay if u want to be certified. Simple try it and thank me later |

First: if your boss thinks you can learn everything involved with online marketing in a single week he has a problem in the head; moreso, if he thinks it was your fault he has a major problem up there. Having said that, let's try to help you out: a good starting point to get a general understanding is Coursera (https://www.coursera.org/), or the everpresent Youtube (on which you can gind a ''thousand thousands'' videos about online marketing, but look out for bs). Apart from that, you'll need at minimum the basics of AdWords, Google Analytics and how to research ads effectiveness - I personally used youtube adn the ''4 hours workweek'' by Ferris (the ads section has a good -if dated- rundown of the basis of the last point). Sincerely, try to get through all this and survive this week to keep your job, but in the longer term, I'd just get my Google certification and set up shop for international clients as a side-gig (which might very well evolve in a full-time job given how a good chunk of online marketers are very bad at their job - at least in Europe is like that, dunno over there sorry) |
