Can I learn digital marketing in 3 months?
The fundamentals of digital marketing ā SEO basics, ad platform mechanics, email marketing, landing page structure, basic analytics ā can be learned in 3 months of dedicated study. What can't be learned in 3 months is judgment: knowing when a channel is failing versus just early, when to double down versus abandon, when a campaign is broken versus normal. That takes 2ā5 years of real reps.
