Pankaj Sharma says, "Digital marketing is perceived to be a quick fix to skyrocket sales which is a completely false notion. Marketing a product or brand takes time and won't do any good if done for a month or two. There are countless players in every domain and the only method to stay ahead is to be relentless and consistent with your digital marketing strategy. False promises is another pain point that is associated with digital marketing as many brands aim for success with an utterly useless product, just by adding marketing into the mix."
Continuing his conversation, Mr. Pankaj Sharma shares a few weak links or rather mistakes that result in an ineffective digital marketing campaign.
Poor profiling and targeting
While creating buyer personas, it is advised to put yourself into the buyer's shoes and think about the problems that they face on daily basis. The next thing is to tabulate the groups and preferences of these personas. Improper profiling and targeting is a sheer waste of resources which leads to the right campaign being displayed to an uninterested audience. Try to profile better if you want your product to reach the right audience.
SEO blunders
SEO is the key to discoverability on the internet and it brings in organic traffic which is a gold mine for a business. Organic traffic constitutes those users who are very interested in the niche of your product. But you have to outshine other brands in search engines rankings which is only possible if you spend quality time devising and perfecting the SEO of the website.
Ignoring the audience
Not interacting with the audience makes them lose interest in your brand which is why social media channels are the best way to connect with your audience. Even fortune 500 brands are now present on social media channels because audience interaction and satisfaction are a must in digital marketing.
