How to get experience?

  • There are plenty of courses online created to help you further your knowledge in PPC – why not start off with the Google AdWords certification, created to build and test your knowledge of the basics. Complete this course and show the hiring manager you know your stuff!
  • Ask for work experience at inhouse companies or agencies – network on LinkedIn, build relationships and reach out to those already in the PPC space to see if they can help you out with an internship! Or utilize your current role by asking to help on the paid ads or shadow the PPC team to see what it’s all about.
  • Once you’re certified speak to small or local businesses – pitch them your plan and create a small scale paid campaign strategy for them, be open helping for free whilst you’re learning the ropes. If you have your own small business open a business account on Amazon where you can promote and learn AdWords.
  • If your current company focus on organic marketing suggest a paid marketing strategy – put together a tangible plan and pitch it to your employer, remember to include budgets and goals to drive results for your current company. You’ll gain concreate experience and show initiative.
