Yes, I am now a certified Google Advertising Professional.
To get this certification you need to:
- Pass the 111 question Google exam in 90 minutes or less. (It was pretty hard!).
- Manage an advertising spend of over $1,000 a month for more than 90 days. (I do this at LehmanMillet for our clients.)
- And have the above two things be true at the same time.
What the certification means:
- Google now points to me as someone who can advertise on their platform on a professional level.
- I get to prominently display the Google certification logo on my site signifying to the world that I can confidently execute online advertising at the highest level.
Cheers!
