Google Digital Marketing for Startups: The Complete Growth Mastercourse

Wishlist Share

About Course

Google can connect a startup with customers at the moment they search, watch, compare, visit or buy—but its ecosystem can feel fragmented and expensive when SEO, YouTube, Ads, Analytics and tracking are managed separately. This course turns those moving parts into one practical growth system, helping learners build visibility, capture demand, create demand and measure what actually contributes to the business.

You will begin by mapping growth goals and discovering customer demand through search data. Practical labs then move through SEO, Search Console, Google Business Profile, YouTube, conversion tracking, Search Ads, Demand Gen, Display, Performance Max, Shopping, GA4 and Tag Manager. Every section produces a usable marketing asset—from a demand map and SEO plan to a YouTube engine, live campaign blueprint, measurement framework and optimisation backlog.

By the end, you will become a Google-powered startup marketer—able to build organic visibility, run purposeful advertising, connect campaigns to conversions and make better growth decisions from data. You will leave with a complete Google Growth Operating System and 90-day roadmap. Successful learners receive a Scalelab Academy certificate, lifetime course access, future updates and access to course-specific AI tools for keyword research, SEO briefs, advertising creative, campaign reviews, analytics interpretation and growth planning.
