1.1. DIGITAL MARKETING

Digital marketing is that the act of promoting and mercantilism merchandise and
services by investment on-line marketing ways like social media marketing, search engine

was primarily a one-way conversation with a captive audience. Television advertising grew
and matured into an international organization, a viable Digital promoting medium. The

With the Digital explosion of digital media, people began to interact with each

relevance of traditional print and broadcast channels declined, completely changing the
Digital consumer corporation dynamic. Digital channels opened doors for consumers. They
were no longer passive linear unit participants, a Digital promoting unilateral conversation,
consumers became linear unit authors, editors and empowered critics. The digital panorama

The sellers no longer drive the discussion. Digital consumers every day are
now the creators of styles and trends.

For Digital promoting professionals trying to compete linear unit this new

The exponential growth linear unit digital channels angular distance led to the

Content Marketing

The grandparent content theory flammable that drives your digital promoting activities
Digital:

Here is a list of the most popular and effective social media channels:

Facebook

This is by far the biggest social media channel, with an estimate of people
using the site each month, 665 million active users each day, and generates up to 645 million
local business page views per week, Facebook has proved that its popularity amongst users is
here to stay. Facebook can be thought of as the “social” home for your business on the
Internet. It’s a place people can go to leave a message, browse through business products and
photos, or chat with you online. With so many targeted potential customers, creating a
business page is a must, but remembers that it needs to be updated on a daily basis with not
only promotional information, but engaging and interesting content as well. Know that this
platform does need a considerable amount of human and financial resources (advertising),
and, if done right, the benefits to your business will definitely be seen.

Twitter

Twitter is full of people with things to say, and you can listen! This social
media channel has an estimated 215 million active users. Twitter is meant not so much for
friends and family but for people you actually want to communicate with. You may think the
140 character count (or the amount of words you can tweet) is limited, but when used
correctly, you can reap the rewards. Twitter has proved its worth in recent years as a platform
for breaking news. Use the great hashtag feature to keep up with and be part of the latest
trends and news worthy events. Twitter is also a great way to connect with your customers. If
you have an unsatisfied customer you will hear them on Twitter, and this is your chance to
excel at customer service. If you have succeeded in gaining some popularity with your twitter
account you will know how viral twitter can be.

Google+

Google+ has 359 million active users a month – far from the ghost town it is
popularly believed to be. Many see Google+ as a combination of Twitter and Facebook, but
its new features makes it a marketing paradise. The Hangouts, +1s and hash tags, if used
properly, can result in fantastic page popularity.

4
Like Twitter and Facebook, this page needs to be updated; you need to be interactive with
not only your own users, but other business pages as well.

Pinterest

This is a tricky social media channel and you should only take it on if you
have great images to share concerning your business. Your business can reap the benefits of
introducing your products to an estimated 70 million (10 million in the US alone) users on
Pinterest, with fabulous backlinks to your website. Businesses that produce quality visual
content on Pinterest have a distinct advantage. Because of the highly visual nature of the site,
quality images have a greater chance of becoming “viral” – that is, shared and re-shared and
re-shared further – to thousands of people. An image pinned by a highly-followed Pinterest
member has the potential to reach millions of viewers.

If your business is image heavy – say, a photography studio, retail shop or an


ecommerce site – then Pinterest for business makes sense. But what if your business doesn’t
make or sell pretty things? Don’t overlook the appeal of a good “how-to checklist” or a step-
by-step guide. When paired with an interesting image, these pins can garner attention, too.
Once someone pins the image, the web address associated with that pin can serve to draw in
new customers.

Instagram

If you’re not already aware, Instagram is a photo-sharing program. What makes


Instagram different from other photo-sharing programs is that it’s a free app which can be
downloaded onto iPhones and some Samsung and Android devices. It enables users to apply
a variety of filters to pictures with a simple press of a button. Do not sign your business up if
you are not going to use your smart phone. Though you can manage your Instagram account
via your PC, you can’t upload images to Instagram without a third party tool from your PC.
Instagram is great for products, pictures of staff and developments within your business, and
using this social media channel can add the ‘we’re just human’ factor to your business.
Statistics show that there are between 130 and 150 million users, but you need to understand
the demographic of these users and determine if this is the right target audience for your
business: The majority of users (70%) are female between the ages of 18-35.

5
LinkedIn

Linkedin is the largest social media network for business people and
professionals but most small business owners still don’t have it on their marketing radar.
Business owners are now realizing the value of this site and the opportunities to build
relationships and sales leads. There are over 230 million LinkedIn users and 2.7 million
business pages already on LinkedIn. Note that LinkedIn is more serious in nature compared
to Facebook and Twitter. Approach this social media channel more seriously and assume that
the users will want serious, professional and informative information. One of the most
powerful features of Linkedin is “Linkedin Groups” which provide a place for professionals
in the same industry or with similar interests to start and participate in a discussion within a
Group. You can share content, find answers, post and view jobs, make business contacts, and
establish yourself as industry experts. Groups can have a hundred to thousands of members,
so the exposure is significant.

YouTube

This social media channel is the most popular video oriented site and has an
estimate of over 1 billion unique visitors every month, with over 100 hours of video uploaded
to YouTube every minute. A huge factor to note with YouTube is that (1) it’s the second
largest search engine after Google (not Yahoo or Bing!). So, having content here that is
optimized to be found by someone looking for your product, service, or niche can have
enormous benefits; and (2) YouTube is owned by Google! When it comes to boosting your
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) ranking, videos are over 50 times more likely to appear
on the first page of search results as part of the blended results that Google now shows.

But the YouTube market is competitive. It really is a social media channel to choose if you
have value videos that invite engagement, sharing and that users will enjoy. If your business
can visually show how their services, products and employees are different from all the rest
out there, this social media channel is a winner. Note the costs and human resources involved
in producing good, valuable videos before signing your business up.

6
Foursquare

This is only for a business that have a brick and motor location – a restaurant,
hair salon, spa – are good examples. Major updates have breathed new life into this social
media channel, but there is still a debate whether Foursquare has a future or not, which makes
it a tricky platform to invest in. There are 40 million users and 1.3 million businesses on
Foursquare and local businesses canstill leverage this network to build their customer base
with new prospects and reward their most loyal customers. People use Foursquare to check
into locations they’ve visited by using the app on their mobile phones. Once they’ve checked
into a location, it can be shared with their Foursquare friends, Facebook friends and Twitter
followers. This is where businesses on Foursquare benefit from being on the platform
because users’ friends see where they’re checking in to eat, shop, have fun and more, which
could possibly influence them to do the same based on the recommendations of their trusted
connections. Interaction and real-time content is great when people write reviews,
recommend and talk about your business, but know that you must join the conversation,
interact, post images and reward customers in order to be successful on this platform.

Social Bookmarking, Local Search and Review Sites

There are also social bookmarking sites, as well as Local Search and Review
Sites (Google Places, Yahoo Local, City Search and Yelp) that are important for business. I
will cover these in a separate blog.

 FACTORS INFLUENCING CONSUMERS

Consumer’s buyer behaviour is influenced by four major factors:

1) PERSONAL FACTORS

2) PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS

3) CULTURAL FACTORS

4) SOCIAL FACTORS

73
PERSONAL FACTORS

It consists of such variables as age and lifecycle stage, occupation, economic


circumstances, life-style (activities, pastimes, critiques and demographics), personality and
self concept. These may additionally explain why our preferences often change as our
`situation' changes. Decisions and shopping for behaviour is glaringly also motivated by way
of the traits of every customer.

Personality is the set of tendencies and particular traits of every individual. It is


the made from the interaction of mental and physiological traits of the man or woman and
effects in regular behaviours. Consumer economic scenario has superb influence on his
buying conduct.

PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS

It affecting our buy selection includes motivation, notion, getting to know,


beliefs and attitudes. Other humans regularly have an effect on a patron s purchase choice.
The marketer needs to recognize which humans are involved in the buying decision
and what position absolutely everyone plays, in order that advertising techniques can also be
aimed toward those humans.
Among the elements influencing purchaser behaviour, mental elements can
be divided into 4 categories: motivation, belief, mastering in addition to ideals and attitudes.

Motivation is what is going to drive purchasers to increase a purchasing


behaviour. It is the expression of a want is which became urgent enough to guide the
consumer to interpret statistics.
Perception is the technique through which a person selects, organizes and
interprets the records he gets a good way to do something that makes feel. The perception
Of a situation at a given time may additionally determine if and how the individual will act.

Learning is through action. When we act, we examine. It implies an exchange


within the behaviour due to the experience. The getting to know changes the conduct of a

74
man or woman as he acquires facts and experience. A notion is a conviction that a person has
on something. Through the experience he acquires, his gaining knowledge of and his external
influences (own family, friends, etc,), he'll increase beliefs so that it will impact his buying
behaviour. Customer possesses precise notion and attitude towards various merchandise.
Since such ideals and attitudes make up emblem image and affect client buying behaviour
therefore entrepreneurs are interested in them.

CULTURAL FACTORS

Culture is crucial on the subject of know-how the needs and behaviours of an


individual. Basically, subculture is the part of each society and is the essential motive of
individual needs and behaviour.
The impact of way of life on buying behaviour varies from United States to us.
Consequently entrepreneurs should be very careful in analyzing the tradition of various
organizations, areas or maybe countries.

SOCIAL FACTORS

It consists of companies (reference businesses, inspirational companies and


member corporations), own family, roles and standing. This explains the outside influences
of others on our buy choices both at once and not directly. Social factors are the various
elements influencing consumer behaviour notably. They fall into 3 classes: reference groups,
Family and social roles and status. The circle of relatives is perhaps the most influencing
component for a person. It paperwork an environment of socialization in which a character
will evolve, shape his character, acquire values. But also broaden attitudes and critiques on
various topics together with politics, society, social relations or himself and his goals.

 Strength of Himalaya digital marketing = rating* no. of respondents/ sum = 49.4%

75

relationship between the clients and the way in which the promotion and virtual advertising is
achieved in the Himalaya company so that they perceive it as a brand. In general, digital
advertising and promoting are anticipated as a satisfactory feature by the company. SMM and
Digital advertising content is dynasty determined linear unitary of the different respondents

advertising and the promoting linear unit line as one of all mammal genus digital marketing
sports. The frequency of Digital use interest is the largest of the other organizations.
