CONTENT MARKETING
77% of B2B marketers rank content marketing as essential, although only 36% say they are effective at content marketing
E-MAIL MARKETING
91% of consumers check their email daily. According to HubSpot, 76% of marketers today say they use email more now than they did three years ago. A study by Custora, predictive analytics firm, reported that customer acquisition via email has quadrupled in the last 4 years.
Despite the popularity of Facebook, Twitter and the like, email marketing continues to play a critical roll in successful marketing strategies. Just think about it. There are over three times (3X) more email accounts that there are Facebook and Twitter combined.
Part of the reason is that while social media is in some cases good for customer exposure, email marketing is in all cases the most cost effective solution for customer acquisition.
Email marketing is far from being dead. Marketers consistently rank email as the single most effective tactic for customer awareness, acquisition, conversion, and retention.

04.
PRIMARY GOALS

DIGITAL AND SOCIAL MARKETING
With the power of the internet only a click away, digital media and social channels have become pervasive. So pervasive, buyers are no longer dependant on companies to directly provide them the information they need to research products and services or make purchase decisions.
The fact is, over 75% of the buyers' journey is completed before they contact a company. Furthermore, buyers are more likely to believe third party sources, friends and peers than they are the companies providing them information.
That's why we help companies strengthen their digital image.
VIDEO MARKETING
Video is a must have component in any marketing program. Use video to bring your message to life and capture more attention and interest in crowded markets more
Digital and Social Media Services
Regardless of the channel used, digital and social social media should be part of a comprehensive communication strategy, rather than being the strategy.
The starting place for effective digital and social media marketing is content. Content that is engaging, relevant, and has value to the target audience. Interestingly, we do that for our clients.
