Technical SEO shouldn’t feel like a black box where your site silently fails, and no one can tell you why. Most courses skim over the real issues, leaving you guessing while your pages sit unindexed, your crawl budget is wasted, and your site speed drags down performance. This isn’t a theory session; it’s a live repair bootcamp. We are going to open up real WordPress environments, dive deep into Google Search Console, Google Analytics, and Screaming Frog (free version), and diagnose the exact technical barriers preventing your site from being properly crawled, indexed, and surfaced in search and AI answer engines.
You will leave this workshop not with abstract “technical SEO knowledge,” but with a fully actionable technical repair checklist and repeatable diagnostic process you can run every month.
Quick Takeaways:
Flexibility to Fit Your Schedule:
Can’t make it to the live session? No problem. We’ll send the workshop video, workbooks, and supplementary materials shortly after recording so you can catch up, revisit, or reinforce your learning.
In this first module, we move past the basic Google Search Console graphs and into the “Index Coverage” and “Sitemaps” reports. You’ll learn how to read Google’s mind: if they aren’t showing your pages, is it a technical block, a crawl budget issue, or a site-map error? We will diagnose your real-world data live in the tool.
Key Takeaways:
Now that we’ve found the problems, we will fix them. We will log into a live WordPress environment and walk through the specific plugins and settings that make or break your SEO. From image compression to schema markup, you will see exactly where to click to turn Google Search Console “Red” errors into “Green” passes.

Digital marketing shouldn’t feel like a high-stakes survival game where you’re left to fend for yourself in a pit of content and technical errors. Most SEO courses stay at 30,000 feet, talking about “quality content” while Google isn’t even indexing your pages. This isn’t a lecture; it’s a live clinic. We are going to roll up our sleeves, open live WordPress sites, and dive into the guts of Google Search Console to find out exactly why traffic is stalled.
You will leave this workshop not with a “theory of SEO” but with a website content repair and repeatable diagnostic checklist.
We focus on the Data Research that matters:
No abstract concepts, just the execution required to ensure your site is visible in an AI-first search world.
Quick Takeaways:
Flexibility to Fit Your Schedule:
Can’t make it to the live session? No problem. We’ll send the workshop video, workbooks, and supplementary materials shortly after recording so you can catch up, revisit, or reinforce your learning.
In this first module, we begin by diagnosing the current state of your content using the tools you already have: Google Search Console and Google Analytics. Before we write a single new word, we need to find out why your existing pages are failing to drive traffic or conversions. We will log in to live accounts and mine the data to segment your audience, isolate content that isn’t indexing, and identify the specific queries your competitors are winning. This module is all about finding the “leaky buckets” in your content strategy so we know exactly what to fix in Module 2.
Key Takeaways:
Now that we have the data, we move into the execution phase. We will open a live WordPress instance and utilize leading AI tools like ChatGPT Business, Google Gemini, and Microsoft CoPilot 365, to aggressively repair and upgrade pages. You will learn the specific workflows required to satisfy traditional search engines (Google/Bing) while simultaneously optimizing for the new wave of AI Answer Engines (ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity). We will build prompts, update plugins, and hit “publish.”

AI-led search has rewritten the SEO rules. If your strategy is still built only around “ranking for keywords”, it no longer guarantees you will be discovered.
AI-generated search results now answer users directly, then point them to trusted brands.

The session provided a suite of prompt models for creating videos.

Jonathan’s vast knowledge is a privilege for anyone attending his sessions. It was eye-opening to hear his input into things that we often skip when operating with AI. No doubt his points can pave the way to getting the most out of our AI models and copywriters together.

I came into this class with uninformed opinions and fears about utilizing AI in copywriting. After the first class, I’m pumped and poised at the shore, ready to ride the wave into the future.

This module was thorough and well communicated, with clear lists of paid and free resources copywriters can use to leverage AI in their writing, specific steps for prompt engineering, and an overview of how generative AI works so you can use it better in the future. I can’t wait to dive deeper in the next module!

Engaging forum, lively teacher! This module delved deeper into questions we, as marketers, have been wanting to ask since AI’s wide-net cast upon the world.

I really enjoyed joining other like-minded industry professionals to see what has worked for them and what hasn’t. The interactive webinar brings a whole new level to learning.
Jonathon was super knowledgeable about an area of marketing we are only scratching the surface on. This is a great way to do more than just get your feet wet in AI for copywriting, but really take action to elevate our writing and rethink how AI can help us, not hurt us.

The LinkedIn Advertising Masterclass delivered the exact type of workshop experience I had hoped for. The presenter was very detailed and thorough at every step of the way. This was the type of information and expertise you will not be able to receive from free videos on YouTube or elsewhere.

I love the in-depth content they provided. It wasn’t just a how-to but also an explanation of how it works, why, and what strategies you can implement yourself!

This course was incredibly helpful! I am just getting started in LinkedIn Ad campaigns and this answered questions that I didn’t even know I had!

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this module and would recommend it to anyone in marketing that is looking to expand their company’s types of advertising and is looking for a more efficient way to target their audience.

The course was excellent, offering a good mix of best practices and real-world examples.

I was very pleased with the workshop today. I learned a lot, there was so much helpful information and I am excited to put the knowledge I gained today into my next ad campaign. Great instructor and great presentation all around!

The LinkedIn Advertising course is an exhaustive look at all things LinkedIn ads–from the campaign manager tools themselves to creative and optimization. The instructor is up-to-the minute with current features and trends.

Sarah is a wonderfully informed expert on LinkedIn ads who presents a wealth of knowledge in a short period of time. I would highly recommend the LinkedIn Ads course.

I highly recommend attending DMA NC trainings, they provide in-depth lessons and tips from experienced trainers that are sure to improve your skills.

Thank you for clearly and concisely breaking down each step of the LinkedIn Advertising process so that I can create ads with the highest ROI for the business I work for. I would recommend this course for all levels of experience, thank you!

The LinkedIn Advertising Masterclass was just what I was looking for to improve my campaign knowledge. Our instructor, Sarah, did an amazing job at tailoring the class to all levels – beginners, intermediates and advanced LinkedIn users. I came away from the course feeling more confident than ever and ready to tackle creating campaigns!”

This was very helpful – particularly the part about setting up the insight tag and creating the different conversion tracking.

This workshop allows marketers to fully utilize and understand LinkedIn campaigns and tips in order to reach their intended audiences.

The workshop was informative without being over my head. It kept up a good pace, so I never got bored, and I appreciate the recording after the workshop so I can revisit certain parts on my own time.
This workshop was illuminating! It gave me a new understanding of how to leverage LinkedIn Ads and website tracking (tags) to broaden our current scope by leveraging features of campaign manager.

Today’s B2B buyers operate in the shadows of the “Dark Funnel”—researching anonymously, forming group decisions behind firewalls, and ignoring traditional marketing tactics like gated content and cold outreach. This masterclass helps B2B marketers future-proof their demand generation strategy by using AI and agentic workflows to align with how buyers behave.
This is not a theoretical AI overview. It’s a hands-on, tactical deep dive into orchestrating marketing and sales strategies with AI, intent signals, and workflow automation. Walk away with a full-funnel AI playbook customized to your business and tools like ChatGPT, Drift, 6sense, Zapier, and more.

In this module, you’ll map your full-funnel journey against AI capabilities, explore top tools by funnel stage, and learn how to create autonomous agents that drive key actions — like lead scoring, content delivery, or SDR handoffs without human intervention. Whether you’re using ChatGPT, 6sense, Drift, or Zapier, this session shows you how to tie them together into a smart, agile, scalable go-to-market motion.
Key Takeaways:
Part 1 — Mapping AI to the Funnel — Where, how, and why deploy AI across each stage of your GTM funnel.
