WHAT ARE THE AIMS OF DIGITAL MARKETING?

The First Aim of Digital Marketing 

The first aim is to ensure you’re reaching out to the right people at the right time and delivering the right message.

An example of this is when you go into any social media website, such as Facebook, Linked In, or Instagram and you realize that the adverts that you see are around previously browsed products and services. Now this happens because companies will start collecting information based on what you like and dislike and start targeting that towards you so that you respond more favorably

The Second Aim of Digital Marketing 

The second aim of digital marketing is engaging your audience. Brands can use online campaigns to get people engaged in talking about their products. 

An example of this is when Domino’s used Twitter to run their Let’s Do Lunch campaign. They decided they would reduce the price of their pizza based on the number of people

that tweeted in time for lunch. By the end of it, the price of pizza went from Rs 550 to just under Rs 260, meaning, their customers were kept happy and engaged.

The Third aim of digital marketing

The third aim of digital marketing is to motivate your users to take action. What we mean by this is actually getting people to do things with your brand. 

An example of this is when Nike ran their Fuel your Team campaign. They were able to take a wide range of their products and link it to their FuelBand. The FuelBand is an activity tracker which allows you to set personal goals and compete with others.

The Fourth aim of a digital marketing

The fourth aim of a digital marketing campaign is spending efficiently. Let’s think about how brands can spend less but still reach out to a great number of people. 

An example of this is beaten by Dr. Dre, a headphones manufacturer who used a selfie campaign to do this. In their campaign, they used a call to action.  A call to action is a message that encourages your audience to act immediately. The call to action here was to post a video selfie on Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag, solo selfie. By doing this, they were really able to create a buzz and get their fans engaged and interacting.

The final aim of DIgital Marketing 

The final aim is really simple – creating a return on your investment. What we mean by this is increasing the money you make as a percentage of the money initially invested through your marketing campaign.
