Many marketing professionals no longer have the luxury of mastering only marketing skills to stay competitive; today's marketer must have an intimate relationship with company data in order to efficiently lead data-driven marketing strategy!
SQL isn't a complicated programming language to learn, but it can certainly be overwhelming for non-programmers because of the different 'dialects' available (MySQL, PostGRE, Oracle, etc.) and the seemingly random caveats that must be memorized. This tongue-in-cheek quick start guide has plenty of humorous marketing examples to get you up to speed as fast as possible.

Part 1:Retrieving Data
Part 2: Sorting the Data
Part 3: Filtering Your Data for Deeper Insights
Part 4: Joining Tables for Analysis
Part 5: Manipulate Your Data with Basic Functions
