Q7. Informative tools! How you’d describe digital marketing to someone who is completely new to the Industry?
Ans. Let us understand Digital Marketing this way- In the old days, you put an advert in a newspaper, TV or radio station and you had no means of measuring how many people had actually seen or heard about your product, or how they interacted with your brand before making a purchase.
The same way Digital marketing works. It’s just a newer & advanced version of traditional marketing. We can use an internet audience for marketing at Digital space.
Q8. DP, what tips do you wish every blogger should know about?
Ans. If anyone is new in blogging or beginner, it’s obvious they will tend to make many mistakes and that’s why I highly recommend all budding bloggers to read tips on Blogging to avoid some common mistakes.
