Digital Marketing is hard if you don't know your niche and market. I beg to differ about the websites part, having a good website is crucial to your product's success only if the product or service needs it.You website is basically your online footprint and online portfolio for everyone to see. A good website means that the branding is good and good branding deals with people's emotions about buying the product. It's even simple to create a good website and it's not that hard at all even! You can now use sophisticated website builders to create a website easily.

Of course you will waste money and time if you focus on the wrong target market and wrong brand tone and voice for your service or product. A great plan is needed first before execution and your digital marketing won't translate to sales if you just decide to buy paid FB ads or Google ads.

I very much agree with you. Having studied marketing, I can tell you without a website you're more or less invisible to consumers. Not only that, but a good website can make the difference between a buy/view and complete disinterest. For example, the average consumer does not want to click more than three times to find what they need on a website. Imagine there is a poorly constructed website... How many consumers were just driven away because they got frustrated with the layout? Plus, it puts the brand/product on the map, as you said. And if you invest a bit of time into learning about SEO (search engine optimization), you can actively drive traffic to your website. Just because the website might not be the main platform that attracts the most views for someone, it doesn't mean it's not important to have one - and a well-made one for that matter.

Since the doors to public access are now thrown wide open by the internet and social media, the competition for attention is fiercer than ever before. Plenty of quality books go unnoticed in favor of inferior offerings simply because an author is more "famous" or already in the public eye for something else.

Thanks for sharing, but it would be more appropriate if you would say it is "YOUR" truth, not "THE" truth.
Thanks again.

Nowadays, Digital marketing is the main source for all marketing products and services. So it's a bit hard to understand the business techniques and all, once you understood it will be easy.

I work in digital marketing, and it's all about trial and error. If something works for one product, it doesn't work for another. And even the same strategy doesn't work the same way on the same product. It needs constant work and development. It's extremely tiring.

Yes, every digital marketers should keep this things in mind, we have to think positive be loyal with our customers.

Basically some marketers lie about following things..
1.A Great Website Is All I Need
2.I’ll Produce Great Content Every Day
3.Social Media Is Owned Media
4.Negative Comments Are Bad
5.Everyone Will Love Our Content

Whatever lies we tell to ourselves or with customers, here is some hard truth keep in mind:

1.We need to commit to customer value in our marketing.
2.We waste money, not in trying new things, but in repeating things we know won’t work.
3.Customers buy from us because of their experience with us
4.Marketing brings out the humanity of your organisation
5.Effective marketing is not hard. Scaling and repeating is hard.
