This sounds like a very low bar for an online training, right? But apparently, many Google Tag Manager trainings in the market struggle with that.

If you found a course bundle or an extensive training program (that looks like a good deal), check when was the last time they updated their GTM course(s). You might be surprised 🙂

Things are different at Analytics Mania. This training is:

• Regularly updated
• Filled with practical lessons + you will apply them on a sandbox website
• With easy-to-understand explanations of complex concepts
• With a clear step-by-step process (not just filled with random tutorials)
• With time-saving resources (exclusive templates and checklists)
• With support from the instructor and other students
• With lifetime access (no deadlines and expiration dates)
• Taught by one of the top GTM practitioners in the world

If you want to measure the effectiveness of your website with analytics/marketing tools, you have to install them.  But how?

You can ask a developer to do that. But he/she is too busy and will do that only after a week (or even later). Now, you’re forced to wait, thus lose valuable insights and money.

Manual management of tracking codes/pixels via the website’s code is a very slow, annoying, and ineffective process. But you can change with Google Tag Manager.

Yes, there are many other resources online that will teach GTM (videos, blog posts, free/cheap courses, documentation). But that comes with its own price:

• Most of those tutorials are outdated
• You don’t have a clear learning path, the process is chaotic
• It’s easy to get lost in the documentation

As a result, you get stuck very often and thus waste even more time. If you convert that wasted time into money, it will probably be even more expensive than a Premium GTM training.

Instead of trying to figure things on your own and wasting weeks, you could be up-and-running with GTM within days. And that’s possible with this training.

Eliminate the guesswork.
