The students get so much out of it and have claimed it is the most useful simulation they have used (we use 4 simulations throughout our Program). I highly recommend it.

As part of Search Engine Marketing, we offer Mimic Pro Simulation and Social Media Marketing, we offer Mimic Social Simulation. Our students just love it, for they are able to practically apply whatever they learn through lecture and by creating websites, ads and social profiles. This simulated environment gives them an awesome platform to practice what they learn. This also helps in quick learning, sharp understanding and enables them to become a competent digital marketer, Thank you Stukent, we will use the simulation in our future batches for sure.

I incorporated the Mimic Social simulation as one of two options for a Choice Assignment in my Social Media Marketing class. The alternative choice was free of charge; therefore, only 14 of 65 students opted to pay to complete the simulation for this assignment. ALL of those 14 students provided especially positive feedback that has resulted in permanent/required implementation in my future course offerings. Thank you Stukent!!!

I teach it as a project based course. The simulation was one of the projects. We did 12 rounds. The students found themselves facing the same decisions that they would face in the real world in terms of channel selection, persona targeting, budget constraints, timing and product targeting. Student comments were all positive. I also required that the students obtain the HootSuite.com certificate and the simulation gave them confidence in approaching this commercial tool.

Even students who are currently social media marketing managers thought the simulation provided opportunities to try out different strategies and platforms. I cannot say enough about the customer service staff who had bailed me out of several rough situations and the turnaround is amazing. I had one situation where the bookstore had given out wrong code and students were registered to an old course code. The customer service staff moved every single student over to the new course.

It's great that I am able to apply theory to a real-life simulation, as if I am working for a real organization. Thanks for the valuable resource, and I hope this program will be a MUST for all courses at other institutes :)

I loved how it was much closer to real life marketing and not just learning principles out of a textbook. Great job!

Taking the practical knowledge from a text book and giving me a chance to practice what I learned gives me more confidence walking into any future interview. Not to mention, this will look really good in a portfolio.
