I don’t think I need to define or explain digital marketing as by now you all must be aware with it. It’s been quite a long time we have been talking about it and you already know that it is marketing over digital devices. But do you not think digital marketing has become chief subject of conversations these days. Everybody is talking about it, its impact and its scope.
However, does digital marketing deserve this, does it really bring any kind of result that could not have been achieved with the traditional marketing or is it just hyped about.
Let’s see what industry experts have to say about digital marketing and its scope.
Mr. Siddarth Rao, Founder – Webchutney
With greater awareness and digital reach, brands now want to create experiences for their customers online rather than just through websites or Facebook pages. Mobile is slowly becoming the primary way we consume information, which is yet another interesting opportunity for us marketers.
Digital marketing has been very challenging so far. Even in terms of recognition, Indian digital campaigns are being recognized now both at national and international levels. This is a big step-up for the industry.”
Greg Stuart, CEO, Mobile Marketing Association
Ashutosh Lawania, founder of Myntra.com
Online shopping, both in metros and Tier 2 & 3 cities is a fairly new phenomenon but shoppers are slowly understanding the benefits of shopping online. In metros, online shopping provides convenience (saving on travel time) and in Tier 2 & 3 cities, it gives shoppers variety and accessibility to brands which might not be available at retail outlets.”

This quickly changed the way we communicated as we embraced new ways to do business online. Online platforms developed to include services that ranged from distance learning to e-commerce and a new generation of entrepreneurs emerged that changed the way we worked. Some of these achievements have been to create reliable supply chains and systems in a country where few things work smoothly.”
