Leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven algorithms to send hyper-personalised push notifications and email campaigns. Capitalising on Generative AI to craft product descriptions based on browsing history and purchase behavior. Tailoring health content and recommendations using search history, prescription data, and seasonal trends.
Do these scenarios sound familiar? In today’s AI-powered marketing landscape, they’re more common than you might think.
According to Forrester’s 2023 Global Martech Forecast, spending on marketing technology tools is expected to reach USD 215 billion by 2027, growing at 13.3% annually. As budgets tighten, marketers are looking to automation and AI to increase campaign return on investment (ROI) and engagement.
Meanwhile, Gartner’s 2024 Annual CMO Survey indicates that although overall marketing budgets have dropped to 7.7% of company revenue, digital marketing continues to account for 57.1% of paid media spending.
According to the World Economic Forum’s 2024 White Paper on global digital jobs, over 90 million digital roles are projected by 2030, reflecting the increasing demand for marketing professionals who can work in synergy with machine intelligence.
The case for upskilling in digital marketing
In response to these fast-evolving industry needs, ISB Online offers the Professional Certificate Programme in Digital Marketing. Designed for professionals seeking to master contemporary digital marketing techniques and take a leap in their careers, this 25-week online programme helps learners build expertise across campaign strategy, digital tools, and AI applications. In today’s world, where upskilling is not a distant dream but an easily accessible avenue, the credibility of the institute helps one in distinguishing oneself. The ISB faculty includes academics with domain expertise and rich learning experiences in top global business schools, as well as industry practitioners who have been at the helm of global businesses. Moreover, participants can access a vast number of case studies that illustrate key concepts of digital marketing through real-life business scenarios. The programme curriculum blends practical knowledge with holistic learning experiences.
Equipping marketers for the AI age
While AI brings efficiency and scale, it is not a replacement for human insight. Creativity, empathy, and strategic thinking remain essential. The challenge lies in integrating machine-led efficiency with human-led storytelling. Thus, marketers who can effectively direct AI tools, interpret performance metrics, and shape narratives will stay relevant, are the need of the hour.
The ISB Online Professional Certificate Programme in Digital Marketing addresses this skill gap. The programme includes over 200 pre-recorded video modules from the globally renowned ISB faculty, 8 live masterclasses on in-demand topics such as ChatGPT, Google Ads, GenAI in SEO, SEM, content creation and a hands-on capstone project. Participants also engage in real-world case studies, simulated campaign management, peer interactions, and practical assignments across SEO, influencer marketing, programmatic buying, and analytics.
Additionally, learners gain more than technical know-how—they earn ISB Online Alumni Status, opening access to a network of over 49,000 professionals and exclusive invitations to events. With triple accreditation (AACSB, AMBA, EQUIS) and research-led pedagogy, ISB offers a globally benchmarked education experience.
