About this course

The most effective marketing strategy requires an in-depth understanding of the target audience.

In this course, you will acquire all the necessary skills and knowledge for analyzing the target audience before launching a product and during its development. You will find all the materials you need to analyze the target audience in practice. You will receive a ready-made manual that you can use at any time!
