the internet revolution digitization of everything has caught up. People are
spending more and more time on the virtual world - some for the fun and others
for money. Internet has virtually thrown open the wonderland of Alice in terms
of e-commerce activities and social networking sites therefore have become the
order of the day.
From
a marketer’s point of view 4 Ps of marketing; namely product, price, place and
promotion are no longer confined to the geographies and the traditional media such as newspaper, TV,
cinema or billboards for campaign. It’s the virtual world which has gained substantial
importance by virtue of its ever increasing traffic and easy connect 24x7 and
365 days a year. There comes the role of a
digital agency. Because, as a marketer your focus area is to increase brand
presence thereby remain in the top of mind awareness of the consumers and
prospects in general so much so that you land up in closing more revenues for
your company.
Why do you need a digital agency?
This
can be your first reaction while willing to hire one such agency. The answer to
your question is plain and simple. Jack of all is master of none which
essentially talks about the core competence for doing things. None can deny the
fact here. You may be excellent as a sales person who loves meeting people and
getting things done. But, can you be at the helm of everything that you do or your organization needs to do?
Certainly NOT; it’s better to assign the job to the one who does it
well.
With
the internet revolution geographies no longer pose constraints and business worth millions of
dollars is taking place every day online around the world. If you aren’t
there in the virtual world a company sitting in the remotest corner
of Africa for instance will take away your business in central Australia. The role of a digital agency therefore can’t be undermined.
