The class is designed with an economical style. I never feel like my time is being wasted. So much is delivered in just a few minutes, I can only watch a few lectures a day so all the great information has time to be absorbed. I’m looking forward to watching more tomorrow!
The way this course is made was phenomenal, very clear and very instructive.\n\nI personally had a problem at the beginning of the course with the accent but after awhile I overcome this problem. and I highly recommend this course to anyone who has a desire to learn about social media marketing.

This course is perfect and engaging. Clear and concise. Thanks
The teacher makes things easier to learn and the videos are creative :)
Thank you Mark for this Course you have put together! It offered me a great insight on Social Media Marketing and in general Marketing Strategy building. Before i would say that i had some knowledge over the Topic but was very chaotic. Now after finishing the course i can say that a lot has been put in its order of understanding. Thumbs up for the creation and thanks again.
Mark is a great teacher. I love how he takes his time and explains all the concept in this course. I highly recommend this course to those who want to learn about Social Media Marketing.
Unlike many courses I've taken before this course has an excellent pace, plus it uses great examples to recreate a great context for all of the topics and issues being covered
Very informative, he teaches you about marketing theory so that you can apply it to your business specifically.
I came into this course with some experience with email and social media marketing but no technical knowledge. Now I able to effectively communicate to my team and also with the customer new and exciting marketing campaigns.
Mark is delightful and engaging. His course covers all aspects of social media marketing, told in a way in which anyone can understand.
It met my expectation. I am yet to complete the course but I must say, I am well pleased with the instructor's approach, mastery of the topics and total outlook of the course.\n\nI only wish I could get offline access to the videos. This would help a great deal with weak internet connection in my current location.
Amazing content so far. Explained really well and in an easy to follow way.
The course is outlined in a clear concise manner. This information addresses all that I want to learn from a course with this title.
Very good. The course started with the basics which is just what I needed.
This is a super great course. It has clarified a lot on what is social media marketing and how to make it work for your business.
The course is very analytical, to the point and precise. I have learnt so many things. It is a social media marketing masterclass. Thank you!
Its very simple and making exact marketing sense keeping the customer life time value in mind
As i am a bulgarian,i want to say that everything is so good explained !\n\nThank you very much for that course and tips .\n\nIt was pleasure!\n\nKeep going ! :))
So far I am really happy, I feel like I am learning a lot about marketing the way people think, which is great since, that way, you can apply it to any situation for marketing. Looking forward to applying it/seeing how to!
Mark is a very generous teacher. His material is very useful.
As an artist marketing for me has always been a huge obstacle to overcome. But when I, thank' s to the course, realized that communication really is the key, my perspective changed. Understanding what social media marketing really means makes it fun and in reach to probably even sell art. And I think it should become a standard course in every art school or university.
Great explanation about the concepts with examples and also questions to test to see if you understood what your learning. Def recommend this course
So far I'm really enjoying the content and wish I would have completed this course sooner.
I'd give this course ten stars if I could; it exceeded my expectations that much. It's an incredible value for the price.\n\nThe course title is "Social Media Marketing 2019," and it does cover social media marketing very well. Then it goes far beyond that one subject to provide an understanding of the entire scope and the options in digital marketing.\n\nI've taken some courses in which the instructor rambled and went off on side tangents, which is distracting when trying to focus on learning. Ther
I am an absolute beginner, and was nervous about not being able to understand or apply the info. The course is not only extremely informative, but I could also apply ideas right away. Very easy to understand, and i love the demonstrations from the computer screen. The ideas behind marketing are actually really fascinating, I found myself really looking forward to beginning a new section, and enjoying the "homework" exercises.
It matches right what I was looking for. (Edit): I would have loved to hear more about social media paid marketing, but still now I have learned that you don't solve marketing problem by throwing money at the problem. I have a better understanding now how marketing should be done.
Really useful information about the marketing areas I need to focus on.
Great Structure and organization makes this course entirely different while being taught by a detailed pro marketer with great explanations. You can’t loose with this course!
I took this course for work and I am glad I did Mark is a phenomenal instructor, insightful, friendly and really helpful.\n\nI would highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn about social media marketing, SEO and who wants to broaden their minds with this esteemed instructor.

Mark's course is well laid out and very in-depth. Worth every minute from start to finish.
The course is beneficial for people who are anyhow related to social media or content/community management. Just follow through the course and make sure to complete the activities/exercises.
This course was very insightful and knowledgable it was long but direct and in depth thanks for the knowledge.
Great course to learn social media marketing. I think it was worth the price paid
Enjoyed going through the social media marketing journey with Mark. He practises what he preaches and the same is evident in the numerous examples used throughout the course. Anyone taking this course must understand that the content is quite comprehensive in nature and at times it may sound repetitive but essential. While not all mortals like myself can reach Camera and Studio (A/V) skills shown in course, but hopefully, we can aim to be better at them.
6 pages of a notebook in. And that's a lot! I am 100% satisfied with the content covered in this course. By the way, English is my second language and if I had any difficulties I could appeal to subtitles and speed control. Actually I watched it mostly on 2. The teacher is very good and knowledgeable, the material was great. I downloaded and printed some of the PDF's and attached to my notes.\n\nI had a previous experience with marketing my own projects online, little did I know I didn't know 10%
Great so far! Allot of useful information whether you're using it for your own business or your a marketer for someone else's.
I got a lot of new ideas from this Course even I have been at Internet Marketing business for a long time already. And the quality of the Videos are simply excellent, Thanks Mark!
Here you can learn all the important social media facts and also the small additions what you could use to make progress in your marketing campaign. Learn step by step.\n\nThank you!
