This course was the most challenging of them all. There were a lot of math word problems in the first module and math was never a strong point for me in college. Overall, very informative course.

Meta Social Media Marketing Coursera Review
I cannot recommend these courses, and I would not personally repeat them.
They are certainly not worth the subscription costs on Coursera. They might be worth auditing for free, but I think that depends on your background. Personally, there is better information out there elsewhere.
The introductory courses included only basic information on social media that most people already know or would find easily on their own. There was occasional helpful info later, but you really have to sift through the course for it.
Assignments don’t have real, helpful critique. I would recommend going to a real social media manager for professional feedback.
The exam was such a pain. I don’t believe the course properly prepared for it. The questions were also poorly phrased sometimes, and the only times available were extremely inconvenient.
Start your own account. Find free resources. Get professional feedback from people actually working in this field.

Incredibly unprofessional, outdated, and scammy course. They are showing a lot of outdated features from 4 years back. 1/3 of the course is just talking the same all over again to generate more minutes and I guess get more money from Coursera or whoever is paying them for that. I am surprised that the meta authorized that scam. The cringy formula in the middle with that dude fake smiling during weird moments. Overall waste of time made by lazy people to get easy money (and I finished it all including the certificate). Oh, and they have even grammatical mistakes in tests XD.

Insightful! Brought out the analytical skills within me...gain more knowledge on how to calculate ROAS CAC CPC LTV ROI which are prerequisites to making an inform decision on your campaign results. I further have a foundation to make a better presentation of my campaign objectives to stakeholder, and prepare a more useful advice on how to set-up a future plan as a Media Buyer. Am so glad an happy to have embark on this learning path, and prepared to take the next step to grab a global meal ticket as a certified META digital marketing associate!

To measure and optimize a social media marketing campaign, begin by setting clear goals, objectives, and key performance indicators (KPIs) to track. Utilize analytics tools to monitor engagement, reach, and conversion metrics across various social platforms. Regularly analyze the data to identify trends, successful content, and areas for improvement. Adjust your strategy based on insights gained, experimenting with different content types, posting schedules, and targeting approaches
