I have already landed my first lead and this course has helped me in niching down to do the seo side of things and currently am sticking only with that as it is safer and more result oriented. Secondly I really loved the competition analysis as am starting out and will surely do for this client. They run a compliance firm.

More info about the backlinks is needed since they are repeated throughout. Know more in great detail about them would make it easier for me to understand the study material.

By Jay Koser on 1/16/2020

Extremely good at taking all the basics of online marketing and giving a comprehensive plan for starting and building up your own personal agency. I specifically like all the of the suggestions for information sources to learn more about SEO and Google adwords. I also never knew how easy it really was to build a website and crafting it to maximize SEO. Thanks so much for doing this!

Exceptional COURSE!!! I am just starting my agency as a newly SAHM (stay at home mom) it was very easy to understand i took a TON of notes, the recommendations have a lot of FREE servicess you can use especially for someone like me that has a start up budget. Thanks alot Coursenvy Ill be buying the SEO course next!

By Georgia Kirkpatrick on 6/27/2019

Very good course. Definitely covered what I wanted to know. The slides were okay, but I've seen other lecturers include the content as downloadable handouts which I find really helpful - screen shots are just less useful. I also prefer more interesting visuals, like seeing the lecturer every once in a while.

By Maddie Reinders on 5/15/2019

Zeer goede cursus, veel van opgestoken. Enige puntje van kritiek is dat ik het soms teveel een salesverhaal vond voor Coursenvy zelf, door bijvoorbeeld te verwijzen naar andere trainingen, hun software, etc. Ander puntje is dat de training erg gericht is op de VS. Ik mis soms de aansluiting met Europa/andere delen van de wereld.

By Randolph Jones on 9/25/2018

As someone starting a marketing agency I found this course to be very detailed and thorough in their explanations. Specifically the section about "How to attract clients" was useful because it was actually about attracting business by giving the market value as opposed to cold emailing (spamming) people like everyone else, and what most others teach. This is my second course purchased by Course Envy and I will certainly be purchasing more as I'm now a huge fan of how they teach. Very thorough, detailed and applicable so students can get started right away. Thank you for creating these fantastic materials!

By Walter Iri-Kwani on 3/11/2018

The course was informative, the instructor appeared to have deep knowledge about the subject, however, the course should have been accompanied by lecture notes since students love to look at lecture notes in conjunction with video tutorial. This is the main reason I have rated this course four stars.

By Neelam Mishra on 2/11/2018

these are very basic things and most of us already know it before we make or create a page for our brands/business. Besides this sort of training material is already available for free on you tube. Also this training material is more suitable for US market, didn't find much tips suitable for Indian market as I am from India. I was hoping to learn the keywords and how to place google and various social media ads. However I just learnt the basics which I already knew. I would like a refund or exchange for a better course

By McKenzie Klasing on 1/27/2018

I have to hand it to Justin & his team at Coursenvy.com. I've spent the last two and a half years in Car Sales and now starting a marketing agency about 10 months ago. I'm decently experienced in marketing, but he is still providing tons of information about things I was not aware of. This course pays for itself within the first 30 minutes. If you are a newby trying to get into marketing, this course is worth it. If you are experienced in marketing, this course is worth it. This is the second course I'm finishing from Justin & Coursenvy, and it will definitely not be the last.
