The Social Media Marketing & Management Masterclass 2026 (Udemy.com)

Master Social Media Marketing and Management, Digital Marketing, Facebook Ads, Instagram, YouTube, Build a Strategy.

Created by: Robin & Jesper

Last updated February 2026

Our take

Based on the ratings of 9,717 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in February 2026. No course pays to be reviewed.

Robin and Jesper's course is a wide survey of social media work, not a single-platform tutorial. The syllabus shows 27 sections and 331 lectures across about 36 hours. Strategy, branding, copywriting, sales psychology and customer service come first, then channel sections for Facebook and YouTube ads, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Quora and Twitter. It is aimed at entrepreneurs, business owners, freelancers and side hustlers, and the only requirement is a computer or phone.

Reviewers mostly like how clear it is. Words like organized, well structured and easy to understand come up often, and beginners say the basics are easy to follow. About 5,800 of 9,717 ratings are five stars. The complaints are consistent too. Some say the foundation sections run long, the sound level jumps between videos, and one reviewer found topics chopped into tiny bits. The harshest reviews call it outdated, with the LinkedIn material said to look like a 2018 version, and describe some lectures as general and stretchy.

Value depends on what you want. As a broad first map for someone starting out, it earns its 56,218 students and a 4.3 rating. The course was last updated in February 2026, yet reviewers still found parts dated, including one who found stale campaign steps, so check the ad platform screens against the lectures. Anyone who needs deep, current paid-ads tactics will want a specialist course on one platform instead. For general grounding across channels, it is a solid pick.

Best forSmall business owners and new freelancers who want one broad overview of every major social platform.
Skip it ifYou need current, deep tactics for one platform, such as LinkedIn or paid Meta ads.

Pros

  • Clear, well-organized sections that beginners say are easy to follow and not overwhelming
  • Covers strategy, copywriting, sales and customer service, not just posting tips
  • Separate channel sections for Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Quora and Twitter
  • Updated in February 2026, with 20 assignments and Q&A support

Cons

  • Some reviewers call parts outdated, especially LinkedIn and campaign setup steps
  • Foundation lectures run long and some feel general, with uneven sound between videos
  • No quizzes, and one reviewer got stuck unable to complete an assignment
Really good for beginners. Provided a lot of details about social media marketing in different apps, which is really beneficial. Really easy to understand the explanation.

Listed for all levels, but best for beginners; the only requirement is a computer or smartphone.

An absolute game-changer for mastering Meta performance marketing!" This course was hands-down amazing from start to finish. It completely shifted how I approach Facebook and Instagram growth—moving away from basic posting and vanity metrics toward high-level creative strategies that actually drive conversions. The frameworks on creative-as-targeting, decoding the algorithm, and understanding metrics like Watch Time and DM shares were fantastic. The practical, data-driven approach makes complex performance marketing concepts incredibly clear and actionable. If you want to scale your brand or client accounts using Meta’s ecosystem, this course is an absolute must-take!

Really good for beginners. Provided a lot of details about social media marketing in different apps, which is really beneficial. Really easy to understand the explanation.

By Ayomide Aduragbemi Aina on 7/9/2026

I left this rating because the course has given me clarity on most things that I think didn’t matter when it comes to SMM as well as the ones which I didn’t pay attention to when I started working in the industry.

By Colleen Koekemoer on 5/21/2026

I find that some of the videos the sound is either louder or softer. My speakers are currently set at their maximum volume. Please just be aware of this.

By Shaune Peltz on 4/9/2026

I love the interaction and involvement your course allows - especially real-world examples. Makes retaining the information so much easier

By Cyle Colbert on 4/3/2026

I know these guys, I know it's early in the course, but, if I implement half of what they are teaching, I know my business will see its first 1k. Thanks.

By JediZorro on 3/18/2026

I tried another course with another presenter and gave up. These two men are making this so easy for me to follow and learn. The bite-sized viedos work well with my adhd brain!

By Zayana Al Jabri on 3/3/2026

I learn so much, and I am so invested in learning more. The course is very interesting. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn how Social Media Marketing & Management works to take the course. I am halfway, and I learn so much.

By Chidera Urenma Eme on 2/14/2026

I enjoyed this course so much, it didn't just get me ready for social media marketing and management, it prepared me for an entire digital marketing career. Thank you so much Robin & Jason for the efforts you both put into this course, there was never a dull moment. The way you broke down things I felt would be complex, I don't think there's any tutor out there who can bring such detailed clarity. Thank you very much❤️❤️

By Wajeeh Ahmed Jan on 1/31/2026

This course is outdated. I bought it to learn LinkedIn but looks like they are using its 2018 version, apart from that half the lessons are irrelevant in 2026. Most of the lessons of Jesper are general and very stretchy and boring I literally yawned while watching every video so far.
