This blog post is dedicated to a webinar we held on how to get started if you don’t know how to start in digital marketing, by people who have started their careers from scratch with no prior marketing experience or knowledge.
As ripplemark, one of our goals is to help Egyptian marketers who are aiming to enter the digital realm or professionals shifting careers from traditional marketing to digital- and obviously anyone interested in the field. How to start your career in digital marketing and its less dense keyword sibling “digital marketing course” ,as shown below, is a skyrocketing search term in 2020 and it’s not surprising to see this interest in a country where the data and technology awakening is underway.
Digital marketing career, how we did it at ripplemark
As a “self learning digital organization”, we started from 0 in digital- literally a David and Goliath story. We had very little knowledge of technical, full funnel, measurement based marketing and today we manage almost every channel in digital marketing and know it inside out. Our experience in ‘learning on the go’ will be of great value to anyone who wants to cut to the chase and learn the correct path of least resistance. However, that path requires serious learning and upskilling.
