SUMMARY
It is important to note that assumptions in these early findings apply to marketing campaigns targeted in a B2B atmosphere as no specifications on the target audience for e-learning were provided. If the findings should be focused on providing data within the B2C landscape, this should be noted in any reply.
Additionally, no digital marketing benchmarking metrics specific to the e-learning market were uncovered (or even indicated) in initial research. As such, a pivot in research in suggested.
Finally, a US focus was assumed, if this should pivot to include data for another region (or globally), this should be communicated in any reply.
