why is this needed

The vicious circle is familiar to anyone who started: without cases they don’t hire, without work there is nowhere to get cases from. It is torn by the fact that most of the work marketing is done on public data. You can go through someone else's funnel yourself. The competitor's landing page is open. There are prices on the website. This is enough to show the train of thought - and that’s exactly what they’re looking at.

If you complete the first assignment, send it in, I’ll look at it and tell you what reads like a junior’s work and what reads like a middle’s work.

  7. Campaign report in the form in which it is given to the client.

The file for each task describes exactly what to do and what should happen at the exit and what it shows the employer. The last line is more important than the first two: she tells you which task to take for which vacancy.

about assumptions

The only rule, the violation of which kills the whole point of the exercise: invented numbers are marked as made up. Not in small print below, but directly in the text of the case.

The reason is practical. During the interview regarding your case, they will ask a clarifying question. question. If the figure was an assumption and signed as such, you explain the logic and you look like a neat person. If you presented it as a fact, you have already asked the second question. you won't survive.

Frequently asked questions
What to put in the portfolio of a marketer without experience?
Works done on public data: analysis of someone else’s funnel, landing page audit, media plan for a given budget, content plan with a content category planner, reconstructed unit economics. These are not “fake” cases—the employer is looking at the thought process and design, not whether anyone paid for the work.
What should a beginner marketer's portfolio look like?
Four to six cases, each on one page according to the scheme: task, what was done, what worked, what would be changed. The link is placed on the first line of the resume, not at the end. Format is secondary: Notion, PDF, or a website page work the same as long as the structure is the same.
Can real companies be used in case studies?
It is possible to analyze what is publicly available - advertising, website, social networks. It is better not to indicate the name without permission: a description like “a chain of coffee shops in a city with a population of one million” is enough. Internal data to which you do not have rights does not appear in the portfolio at all.
How long does one task take?
From two hours to analyze someone else’s funnel to a day on unit economics with the reconstruction of assumptions. It’s possible to assemble a set of four cases in a weekend, if you don’t rewrite each text five times.
What is most looked at in a portfolio?
The “what would change” section and how the numbers are presented. The first shows the ability to reflect, the second - honesty. A case with honestly stated assumptions looks more professional than a case with confident but inexplicable numbers.
