Almost everyone on this planet owns a gadget. Nowadays, when you say gadget, it would mean a smart phone, tablet, laptop, PlayStation, X-box, smart watches, wireless devices and the list goes on. With these gadgets, everything is almost accessible. Everything is available online, with just one click or one tap. Communication is easier and more convenient regardless which part of the world you are located. With these gadgets and with the help of applications (or software), everything are within the reach of everyone. This is the reason why there is Digital Marketing.



Let us explore the term Digital Marketing.


Digital in my college days refers to a series of the digits 0 and 1; or they are data or information in the form of digital signals. Basically, it is a term used relating to computer technology. Marketing on the other hand, refers to activities a company undertakes to promote the buying or selling of a product or service (Reference: www.investopedia.com). Fundamentally, Digital Marketing is an activity to promote the buying and selling of a product or service using digital, internet or electronic devices such as TVs, phones or electronic billboards.


The tricky thing for a business owner is to determine which among these “digitals” is the right tool to promote their products or services. This is where Digital Marketing comes in.


Social Media is one cost-effective tool of digital marketing


Social media is now an accessible tool for convenient marketing -- thanks to all the geniuses in this world who discovered, invented or developed different tools to make marketing easier. One of these tools is the social media. There are different social media platforms available such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and among others. Facebook generates more revenue than any traditional media company. (Fun fact about Facebook: Did you know that before Facebook was sent out to the world, two chatbots were created for an experiment? The experiment was going well until those two chatbots spoke a digital language only the two of them understood. So, the experiment had to be shut down.) Additionally, almost 50% of the world's population is using social media networks. This is a huge percentage of potential clients. You just have to know how to send your message so it reaches your target audience. And more importantly, it is free to create social media accounts.


Content marketing is also digital marketing


However, your posts or messages must be creative, engaging, high-quality and unique to attract attention. Your content must have a charm of its own. Once it is attractive or eye-catching to anyone in your network, they will share it to others too. That is one way of marketing.


But there is always a question. Did your eye-catching message reach the right people? Probably yes, probably no. Why? Because all social media networks such as Facebook are a huge network. It is quite challenging to deliver your charming message to the target audience unless your audience is directly connected to you.
