Why You Need Digital Marketing

Every company you come across be it a small local café or a giant MNC like that of Starbucks - they all have different specific goals in mind, but most are always trying to achieve growth by reaching more consumers and convincing them to purchase. Doing this effectively implies you have to take advantage of all the most valuable marketing resources and technologies, and in 2020, the internet tops that list. 

In the UK, almost the entire nation has access to the internet with an estimated of 56.7 million monthly users in 2021. At the same time the penetration rate is expected to rise from 90.64% to 94.85%. Now with technology advancing faster than ever and the human need to keep up with the times - you need to use this to your advantage! 

An average Joe checks his phone every 12 minutes of the waking day. In the UK alone, every 2 in 5 adults first check their smartphones or another similar device for notifications within 5 minutes of waking up. This could be for news, social networking and countless other activities. Digital Marketing helps you reach them while they’re doing this. With remarketing ads, email and text marketing, and social media - you can be in front of your audience while they use many different apps on their mobile phones. 

Bcreatively marketing yourself digitally, you open up a wide range of possibilities for future publicity strategies. An added bonus being that you also have the flexibility of testing and stopping poorly performing campaigns (wait for it) in real time! 

Any modern brand that wants to get ahead in the current business climate will need to adopt the latest digital marketing tactics as part of their overall strategy. This doesn’t mean that you have to throw out the traditional print ads, especially if your business is already seeing great response from these types of ads. However, by using digital marketing tactics in combination with your current traditional marketing strategies, your business can start to optimize your campaigns for maximum results. 

But don’t take our word for it! Industry trends and statistics show that digital marketing really does work, regardless of your industry or company size.
