    Breaking Games E-Commerce Data Analysis & Strategy Externship

    Why do some people click “Buy Now” while others leave their cart behind? In this externship, you’ll team up with Breaking Games to explore how online businesses turn clicks into customers. You’ll use real marketing data from tools like Google Analytics, Meta Ads, and Shopify to uncover what’s working, where shoppers drop off, and how small changes can lead to more sales. Along the way, you’ll learn how to read the story behind the numbers, connect ad spend to actual purchases, and build strategies that help businesses grow. No experience needed—just curiosity about how the online shopping world really works.
