MARKETING IS DIGITAL TODAY
Marketing has been digital for a while now. Marketers use thousands of digital technologies and applications to create winning customer experiences for their target markets today, and they need help from those who can handle the combination of marketing and technical fundamentals needed to reach, engage, convert and retain those audiences in an ethical way.
