Digital Marketing Power - My Curation Topic

Digital Marketing Power - My Curation Topic | Digital Marketing Power | Scoop.it

I've been fascinated with digital marketing and its possibilities ever since the term was coined. I guess that's because I've been professionally involved in sales and marketing for over 20 years now, way before the invention of the internet. I remember trying to think of a suitable title to encapsulate what digital marketing means to me and I realised that the word POWER had to be in there. When you think about it, when has there ever been a time in the history of commercial marketing and PR where a one man band or small business could compete with a multinational or global business. Digital marketing (when executed correctly) can level the playing field. My objective with 'Digital Marketing Power' is to select the best content from the best content producers around the world based on the following 3 key principles; 1) Education - provide hot tips and advice which you can use in your business immediately to make a difference 2) well written and nicely presented content for your enhanced experience and 3) evergreen content - so you can go back and reference this material regularly if you so choose. This is not a news site. Finally, I wanted to take this opportunity to mention my business, Gary Hitching Associates. I'm a business development consultant and specialise in lead generation, sales and customer retention for mainly SME businesses. Digital marketing and social media marketing are very significant components of my business development toolkit.

Active vs Passive Inbound Marketing

Active vs Passive Inbound Marketing | Digital Marketing Power | Scoop.it

You may think that outbound marketing is active while inbound marketing is passive. Well, in some ways those are viable definitions, but they are limiting too. Inbound marketing (like outbound) has degrees of strategy and scope that depend on the goals and circumstances. There are different tactics that apply better in some situations than others. Strictly defining what you “can” and “can’t” do under inbound marketing, or any other marketing strategy, isn’t always helpful. This articla looks at some of the tactics commonly used and how they might be classified,and puts aside the “good” or “bad” values to look at the big picture.

Coca Cola, which is one of the worlds most recognized brands has recently announced that its marketing strategy is moving from “creative excellence” to “content excellence“. This is due to the the realization that on a social web people can create more dynamic stories about a business and brand than they can ever hope to achieve on their own.
