# Practical Test Preparation for Digital Marketing

## Practical Test Preparation for Digital Marketing

Practical tests assess how you turn a brief into a defensible deliverable under time constraints. Follow the instructions, clarify assumptions and show your reasoning.

### Common assignment types

- SEO audit and prioritised issue list.
- Keyword research and content mapping.
- Google Ads campaign structure and budget plan.
- Social media content calendar and sample creatives.
- Blog brief, outline or editing task.
- Email campaign and automation flow.
- Analytics interpretation and KPI calculations.
- Landing-page review and CRO experiment proposal.

### A repeatable workflow

1. **Read the brief:** Identify deliverables, audience, objective, constraints, deadline and evaluation criteria.
2. **Plan time:** Reserve time for research, production, quality checks and presentation.
3. **State assumptions:** Mark missing information and distinguish facts from estimates.
4. **Prioritise:** Focus on high-impact issues rather than producing a long, unranked list.
5. **Show evidence:** Include data sources, screenshots where permitted, calculations and rationale.
6. **QA:** Check links, formulas, spelling, tracking definitions, naming and formatting.
7. **Summarise:** Present key findings, recommendations, effort, risks and next steps.

### Timed practice exercise

Give yourself 60 minutes to review a sample landing page, identify five issues, rank them by impact and effort, propose one test and define its primary metric. Use sample data only when labelled, and do not claim that a forecast is a measured result.

### Common mistakes

- Ignoring the stated task and adding unnecessary work.
- Listing tools without explaining decisions.
- Using unverified performance claims.
- Changing too many variables in a proposed experiment.
- Failing to state assumptions or limitations.
- Submitting without checking the final file and links.
