Three to five student groups will collaborate with a single business partner to enhance the partner's digital marketing performance, which includes optimizing their website and devising and launching a two-week digital advertising campaign. Students will undergo comprehensive training in relevant domains, encompassing marketing-oriented web design, search engine marketing, social media marketing, and more. They will evaluate the partner's website design, integrate web traffic data, and furnish an exhaustive web audit report with actionable recommendations to enhance the website's conversion rate. Each student group will present a digital advertising campaign proposal, encompassing the selection of advertising channels, allocation of budgets, configuration of keywords and target audiences, bidding strategies, and detailed advertising design settings. The business partner will choose one group's proposal, and the selected group will collaborate with the company to execute the plan.
