What this is
Get into one of the most lucrative careers in global e-commerce.
You will sit in the same problems our team solves every week: feed issues, PMax waste, search queries that look good and lose money, and accounts spending $10k+ a day. If you cannot defend a decision on a screenshare, you are not done.
- 01
Account architecture
How we structure Search, Shopping, PMax, and YouTube so the account can actually scale. Not a template. The reasoning.
- 02
Feeds and Shopping
Merchant Center, custom labels, CSS, feed hygiene. The part most courses skip and most accounts die on.
- 03
Live account work
Screenshares on real numbers. You diagnose, you recommend, you get told if you are wrong. Same motion as an Echelonn buyer.
- 04
How a buyer works here
6-8 accounts. Slack, reporting, client calls, when to push spend and when to stop. The job, not the theory.
