Building Marketing Workflows with n8n
DataCamp
Last updated August 15, 2026
A project-driven course in which marketers build three working n8n automations end to end: a multi-agent system that drafts marketing plans, a conversion-optimizer that critiques and improves its own suggestions through a feedback loop, and a lead scraper that pulls business contacts at scale. The focus is on the automation patterns underneath — running steps in parallel, chaining them in sequence, looping output back as feedback, and processing records in batches — so that by the end you can design your own AI-powered marketing automations rather than copy a recipe. It is aimed at marketers and growth practitioners who already have some n8n and basic programming experience. You can sample the opening chapter before subscribing; the full course and its Statement of Accomplishment are part of DataCamp Premium.
