Digital Marketing for Partners

In our digital world, it’s really essential for every business to have a digital marketing strategy. While traditional marketing methods are still relevant in our modern age, the sheer amount of time we spend on and rely on the internet has meant that digital marketing has boomed.

Consider these statistics from our current landscape:

• 93% of people read online reviews before making a purchase.
• 81% of consumers go online to find information and answer any questions about the product or service before heading out to the store to make a purchase.
• 45% of shoppers buy online then pick up in-store.
• Customers are 70% more likely to purchase a retargeted ad.
• Social media makes up 33% of all digital ad spending in 2022.

For this reason, your digital strategy can help set up e-commerce (online) success in both the near and far future. Unless you have an adequate digital marketing to-do list, your company is unlikely to grow.

How many customers can you deal with personally? Do you have enough time to design your future or dive with a head in the operations? Your digital ads can work without you and be shown to a variety of potential customers at the same time. 

We're excited to present a digital marketing strategy example from our partner in South Africa, who is an expert in both GPS tracking and digital marketing. This strategy, designed for a small business, is adaptable to any local entrepreneur's needs. It offers a blueprint that can be customized to suit your specific business needs and local market conditions.
