Even though Google Tag Manager is often promoted as a simple-to-use tool that requires no coding or technical knowledge, the reality becomes different once you start digging deeper.
Yes, there are plenty of things that can be implemented easily without much technical knowledge (like generic link click tracking). But there is so much more that you could do in order to harness GTM’s potential and actually collect meaningful data. In this masterclass, Julius Fedorovicius (from Analytics Mania) will help you unlock those possibilities.
In this 2-day masterclass, you will learn about the right work principles with Google Tag Manager. Julius will teach you how to properly cooperate with developers to reach the best results (but you will also learn how to complete complex certain tasks all by yourself). The key to success with Google Tag Manager is finding the right balance: trying to stay agile with your tag management but at the same time, not compromising the quality of your data collection mechanism.
In this masterclass, Julius will share knowledge on:
*After the masterclass you will receive a certificate of completion available to share and use on LinkedIn afterwards. (Note that this is not certification from Google, but this course can also be used as preparation for the official Google Analytics Certification).
