What people say

The Google Analytics and Advanced Google Analytics courses we attended were intense but extremely useful. We came away with lots of inspiration, a much better understanding of a data-driven digital approach and list of action points to implement in our organisation over the next few weeks. Excellent trainer with great marketing knowledge that could also illustrate how this specific subject fits into overall digital marketing. Can highly recommend.

New Technology CADCAM

I really enjoyed the course. It covered lots of areas usually overlooked inside Google Analytics and gave me dozens of actions to implement as soon as possible.
PetsPyjamas

Remco was great. He addressed all our individual learning objectives at the start of the class and answered our questions thoroughly as we went along. He was flexible but thorough in covering the topics (and a few extras). The food provided was also amazing!
Webigence

The advanced Google Analytics course was really insightful. The teacher was great and the class was small which allowed time for lots of questions around other topics within GA.
Berkeley Group

The teacher was brilliant. A top public speaker who knew how to explain things in a simplistic manner making it more digestible. One of the best GA or marketing courses I've taken part in. Well done and thank you!
