Course Overview
Marketing in the digital space commonly referred to as ‘Digital Marketing’, in the present day is an inescapable term for any organization; and has become one of the most discussed topics across industries and geographic boundaries.
The rise of the tech-savvy Millennials and Generation Z consumers, coupled with disruptive technological growth has ensured that traditional marketing methods have become insufficient and in many cases ineffective to drive sales, grow brands or compete in the market.
An offshoot of Digital Marketing is Social Media marketing which harnesses the power of social media platforms to connect with consumers and effectively market products and services. While social media is renowned for making both people and brands shoot to stardom and fame overnight; it has also caused the downfall of many.
So although social media platforms and other digital marketing tools can be used for the purpose of “marketing”; they must also be effectively used to mitigate negative publicity, manage customer dissatisfaction and handle crises situations.
Digital Marketing is now an irreplaceable component of any successful Integrated Marketing Communications (IMC) campaign and its importance is evident in light of the unprecedented demand for skilled digital professionals. In addition, there is a tremendous impetus for existing professionals to upgrade their skills to function effectively in the new digitized world.
The digital era has also given birth to a host of digital marketing/advertising agencies offering expertise ranging from niche services such as SEO specialists, and content creators; to generalists offering a gamut of services encompassing comprehensive social media and digital marketing campaigns including strategy, content creation, media buying, budget allocation and reporting.
These external teams are more often than not overseen and managed by an internal team of the organization. Only a knowledgeable and up to date team will be able to effectively manage the external agencies and service providers, interpret the data analytics and metrics generated and improve ROI on marketing dollars spent.
An equipped team will be able to align the organization’s goals with the digital marketing objectives and allocate the right budget for the tasks to be achieved. Such a team would also be making informed decisions at every stage without excessive dependence on external digital marketing/advertising agencies.
The importance of digital marketing in the present era is a fact that cannot be ignored, but it can also at times pose a challenge to working professionals given its nature of constant and fast-paced evolution.
