Turn social media activity into strategy. In this course, you will build the end-to-end skills that digital marketing professionals use every day — from scheduling content and tracking performance to understanding your audience and responding to customer feedback with confidence. You will start by setting up and managing a weekly content calendar using industry-standard social media tools, attaching UTM codes and optimizing hashtags for discoverability. From there, you will dig into performance analytics to identify what content works and why — then use those insights to sharpen your strategy. You will also develop detailed audience personas from real behavioral and demographic data, map them to platform habits, and evaluate how different content performs across audience segments. Finally, you will practice monitoring customer interactions, documenting them in a CRM, and translating sentiment data into clear, actionable briefs for your team. By the end, you will have a portfolio-ready project that demonstrates the kind of integrated, data-informed workflow employers look for in digital marketing and social media roles.
