The Brief

What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.

What internationalization strategy should DataFlow adopt to successfully enter Germany and France while maintaining its PLG efficiency?

This is not a case study exercise. It is the work a consultant does when a client needs a recommendation backed by evidence. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates recite Porter's Five Forces and none who have built a recommendation a client would actually pay for.

When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."

Canonical roles

Growth StrategistFuture-proof
Solves the question every founder eventually asks: where does the next ten thousand customers come from, and what does it cost to get them? Growth strategists treat acquisition, retention, and revenue as one connected system rather than three siloed marketing problems. The role suits students who like analytical work but want to see it move a real metric within weeks. You'd grow into it by running enough small experiments to develop intuition for what's likely to work, then learning to read Google Analytics and cohort tables without flinching. Cohort analysis and CAC payback modeling become second nature. Strong growth strategists are honest about which wins were skill and which were timing, which keeps them learning.
