Dispelling Digital Marketing Myths

Effective marketing is not difficult -- it just takes a specific strategy. I agree that in order to best reach your audience you need to know what works and what does not.

Brenner explains what digital marketing means to your business and how to make it successful.

Here's what caught my attention:

• It's good practice to consistently produce great content. Articles need to be quality, and grab the reader's attention.

• A negative reaction online isn't always a bad thing to happen. Avoid trolls, but engage with those who are your loyal audience.

• Digital marketing encompasses many different mediums from blogs to email, and more. Be sure your content in these places is relevant to your target market.

I selected this article from Curatti written by Robert Caruso because it provides insights on how marketing experiences has transformed customer engagement.

Your audience is not only involved in your products -- they are also paying attention to your messaging.

How Digital Marketing Affects Your Customers

Experiences are always occurring online whether you would like it to or not. I agree that businesses need to pay attention to how their marketing footprint is affecting their communication and sales.

Caruso explains the current state of customer relations in the realm of digital marketing.

Here's what caught my attention:

• According to a study by Accenture, 34 percent of CMO and CEOs reported that their customers were more likely to engage with new entrant competitors. This is because the experience is more positive than traditional businesses.

• Startups breaking into an established market need to pay attention to new and innovative products in order to be successful. This is important if you want to stay relevant to your audience.

• True marketing experiences are specifically targeted and created for your niche audience. These should be a journey that your customer is taken through.
