# Scenario-Based Digital Marketing Assessments

## Scenario-Based Digital Marketing Assessments

For each scenario, state your decision, evidence required, first action and success metric. Suggested approaches follow each prompt.

### Scenario 1: Limited budget, new local service

A local service business has a small budget and needs qualified enquiries within a month. It has accurate business details but a basic website.

**Task:** Prioritise the first three actions and define measures.

**Suggested approach:** Make the service and contact pages useful on mobile, verify the local profile and tracking, then test tightly targeted high-intent paid search if budget permits. Measure qualified enquiries, booked appointments and cost per qualified lead—not profile views alone.

### Scenario 2: Falling organic traffic

Organic traffic falls after a site migration.

**Task:** List the first technical checks and explain why content should not be rewritten immediately.

**Suggested approach:** Check redirects, status codes, robots directives, canonicals, sitemap, indexation, internal links and Search Console patterns by page/query. Compare the decline with migration dates and affected templates before changing content.

### Scenario 3: Campaign CPA rises

Paid campaign cost per acquisition rises 35% week over week.

**Task:** Create a diagnostic sequence before cutting the entire budget.

**Suggested approach:** Validate tracking and conversion lag, compare spend, auction conditions, search terms, audience mix, landing-page changes and conversion rate. Segment by campaign and device, then address the most evidenced cause and document the result.

### Scenario 4: Low course enrolment

An online course gets many enquiries but few enrolments.

**Task:** Identify where to analyse the funnel and how to improve follow-up ethically.

**Suggested approach:** Track lead qualification, demo booking and attendance, application and enrolment. Clarify prerequisites, curriculum, time commitment and pricing; send relevant follow-up with clear opt-out and avoid unsupported employment promises.

### Scenario 5: Conflicting reports

Advertising reports 120 conversions while the CRM records 86 qualified leads.

**Task:** Explain how to reconcile the figures.

**Suggested approach:** Compare conversion definitions, date ranges, attribution windows, duplicate events, time zones, imported offline conversions and CRM qualification rules. Document the final definitions before comparing performance.
