This curriculum spans the design and coordination of enterprise-scale digital marketing initiatives comparable to multi-workshop strategy engagements, covering the technical, organizational, and governance challenges of deploying integrated campaigns across global teams, complex tech stacks, and regulated data environments.

Module 1: Market and Competitive Intelligence in Digital Ecosystems

  • Conducting digital footprint analysis of competitors using SEO tools (e.g., Ahrefs, SEMrush) to map content gaps and backlink strategies.
  • Designing automated web scraping workflows to monitor competitor pricing, promotions, and product launches across regional markets.
  • Integrating social listening data with CRM systems to identify emerging customer sentiment trends and unmet needs.
  • Evaluating the reliability of third-party data providers for audience segmentation and market sizing.
  • Establishing governance protocols for ethical data collection, ensuring compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and platform-specific policies.
  • Developing competitive dashboards that synthesize real-time data from paid media, organic search, and social channels.
  • Deciding between proprietary research and syndicated reports based on cost, timeliness, and strategic specificity.

Module 2: Customer Journey Mapping and Digital Touchpoint Optimization

  • Mapping cross-channel customer journeys using multi-touch attribution models to identify high-impact digital interactions.
  • Implementing session replay and heatmapping tools (e.g., Hotjar, FullStory) to diagnose friction points in conversion funnels.
  • Aligning journey stages with lifecycle email campaigns, ensuring message relevance based on behavioral triggers.
  • Coordinating UX changes across web, mobile app, and social platforms to maintain journey consistency.
  • Resolving conflicts between marketing’s journey model and sales’ lead qualification criteria through shared KPIs.
  • Designing fallback paths for users who abandon high-intent actions (e.g., cart, form submission) using retargeting logic.
  • Validating journey assumptions through A/B testing of entry points, messaging, and CTAs across segments.

Module 3: Digital Positioning and Brand Architecture

  • Repositioning brand messaging in response to category disruption (e.g., AI-driven entrants) while maintaining core equity.
  • Structuring sub-brands or product-line architectures for digital scalability across marketplaces and verticals.
  • Defining brand voice guidelines that adapt to platform-specific norms (e.g., LinkedIn vs. TikTok) without diluting identity.
  • Managing brand consistency across third-party resellers and affiliate sites using digital asset management systems.
  • Auditing brand search results to suppress negative content and amplify owned, earned, and paid assets.
  • Deciding whether to compete on performance (e.g., speed, price) or emotional appeal in digital channels.
  • Reconciling global brand standards with local market adaptations in multiregional digital campaigns.

Module 4: Channel Strategy and Media Mix Allocation

  • Allocating budget across paid search, programmatic display, social, and influencer channels using marginal ROI analysis.
  • Negotiating direct publisher deals versus using programmatic platforms based on scale, targeting, and fraud exposure.
  • Optimizing channel mix dynamically using incrementality testing (e.g., geo-lift studies) rather than last-click data.
  • Integrating offline media (e.g., TV, OOH) with digital campaigns through unified measurement frameworks.
  • Managing trade-offs between reach (broad targeting) and relevance (precision audiences) in programmatic buying.
  • Establishing governance for dark social and untrackable channels (e.g., messaging apps) in performance reporting.
  • Deciding when to exit underperforming channels despite historical brand presence or stakeholder attachment.

Module 5: Content Strategy and Scalable Creative Production

  • Developing a content matrix that aligns formats (e.g., video, blog, interactive) with funnel stage and platform constraints.
  • Implementing headless CMS architectures to deliver consistent content across web, apps, and IoT devices.
  • Using AI tools for dynamic creative optimization (DCO) while maintaining brand safety and editorial control.
  • Scaling localized content through centralized templates and regional approval workflows.
  • Measuring content effectiveness beyond engagement—tying assets to downstream conversion and retention metrics.
  • Managing rights and licensing for user-generated content used in paid amplification.
  • Deciding between in-house creative teams and external agencies based on speed, cost, and innovation needs.

Module 6: Data Governance and Cross-Platform Identity Management

  • Designing identity resolution strategies in a cookieless environment using probabilistic and deterministic methods.
  • Implementing Customer Data Platforms (CDPs) to unify first-party data from web, CRM, and offline sources.
  • Establishing data retention policies that balance personalization needs with privacy compliance.
  • Mapping data lineage across marketing tech stack to ensure auditability and regulatory compliance.
  • Resolving conflicts between marketing’s need for granular data and IT’s security and governance standards.
  • Creating suppression lists to prevent targeting of opted-out or high-risk customer segments.
  • Integrating clean room solutions for collaborative analytics with retailers or media partners without data sharing.

Module 7: Performance Measurement and Attribution Modeling

  • Selecting between attribution models (e.g., time decay, position-based) based on customer journey length and channel mix.
  • Validating attribution outputs through controlled experiments (e.g., media holdouts, geo tests).
  • Building custom dashboards that reconcile discrepancies between platform-reported and server-side conversion data.
  • Allocating credit to upper-funnel activities (e.g., brand search, awareness campaigns) that lack direct conversion links.
  • Standardizing KPI definitions (e.g., conversion, lead) across departments to prevent misalignment.
  • Reporting performance in financial terms (e.g., CAC, LTV) to align marketing outcomes with executive priorities.
  • Managing stakeholder expectations when attribution results challenge long-standing budget allocations.

Module 8: Strategic Planning and Agile Execution in Digital Marketing

  • Developing rolling 12-month digital roadmaps that adapt to market shifts without losing strategic focus.
  • Implementing sprint-based campaign planning to accelerate testing and learning cycles.
  • Conducting quarterly portfolio reviews of digital initiatives to assess ROI and strategic fit.
  • Aligning marketing OKRs with enterprise-wide business objectives using cascading goal frameworks.
  • Managing resourcing conflicts between long-term brand building and short-term performance demands.
  • Establishing escalation protocols for rapid response to digital crises (e.g., viral backlash, algorithm changes).
  • Facilitating cross-functional alignment between marketing, product, sales, and finance during strategy execution.
