Where Website Leads Come From
Lead generation sits at the heart of this digital marketing internship. A website lead is a person or business showing interest in what a company offers, and leads arrive from three directions.
- Online. Google search, blog posts and other websites. Your SEO and content skills work here.
- Social media. Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and TikTok.
- Offline. Exhibitions and magazines.
In the internship you practise the online and social media channels with free tools, and you track results in line with TAKO’s lead goals. Knowing the offline side helps you see the full picture.
Free Tools You Will Use During the Internship
You learn with free or free-plan tools, so you can keep practising after the program. Filter by type.
And more. Tool names belong to their owners.
