Advantages of Digital Marketing compared to traditional marketing
Spreads quickly and widely
Customers are now extremely responsive to information. Instead of passively receiving information, they actively search, evaluate and choose products and services to meet their needs. Especially when online platforms develop rapidly, information spreads quickly, widely and without geographical restrictions. Users can quickly access websites, product and service content. At the same time, organizations can easily deploy communication activities, market products and brands to target audiences.
Low marketing costs
We easily see that traditional marketing methods prioritize appearing on television, newspapers or outdoor billboards. Costs for these activities range from a few billion to tens of billions of dong. Meanwhile, the process of focusing on promoting on the internet and social networks helps the Digital Marketing budget to be many times lower than previous marketing campaigns. What businesses need to do is create optimal content with search engines like Google and Bing; Social media channels such as Facebook, Instagram, Youtube…
Classify customers effectively
Customers are the final destination of marketing strategy. Traditional forms of Marketing have the ability to reach customers in a wide range but are rarely classified. This invisibly makes marketing activities difficult. Trade promotion is not yet aimed at the right purpose. Leading to low conversion levels. With Digital Marketing, basic information such as age, gender, region, habits, and shopping behavior of customers are compiled and stored in the database. From there, it becomes a highly accurate basis, serving the step of market analysis and building an effective digital marketing strategy.
Easily monitor and measure results
Traditional marketing methods do not provide accurate measurement tools. It is difficult for businesses to evaluate the level of success or make timely corrections. In contrast, Digital Marketing always provides a monitoring system. Measure reach, interactions, conversions… Even though it only displays basic data. But this is also the basis for organizing references. And make appropriate adjustments to optimize marketing activities.
