CHAPTER ONE
1. Introduction
The growth of digital marketing is tremendous and expected to grow more. Every
industry is influenced by the advances of digital marketing, especially Search Engine
Optimization (SEO), Social Media Marketing (SMM) and other sector. Digital
7
marketing is one of the most popular and effective marketing method in this techno
Page
savvy world in terms of cost and customer engagement. For that reason what is digital
marketing & practically I am studying on Digital Marketing. So, I have started my
practical study at my workplace, Nogor Solutions Ltd. under marketing department.
My organizational line manager is Mr. Mustafizur Rahman, IT specialist, Nogor
Solutions Limited has allowed to choose the field in which I am interested. As my
interest and curiosity was in online or digital marketing, I choose to work with a well
known company where I work. Nogor Solutions Ltd. is a 10 years old global based
Enable ICT solutions company.
Due to this Study, I have to learn many aspects of digital marketing including affiliate
marketing, Phone Marketing, Email marketing, content writing, and social media
management. Working in Nogor Solutions Ltd. is proving to be a challenging and
exciting experience for me as I am getting to work in an organization that has just
recently started its Online marketing journey. I feel like I have a larger scope of
contributing and learning here, compared to other already established organizations.
During the period of my internship, I have got chance to learn a lot of new things that
will help me perform efficiently in the corporate world in the future, I also got to
know many people and made a lot of new contacts that might greatly help me in the
future. Communicating with people in social media and managing them is another
great quality that I have earned during my internship in Nogor Solutions Limited. My
responsibility taught me how to take leadership, manage and make real time decisions
in case of urgent situations. Working in the Digital Marketing department, there is not
much opportunity to construct a research based and quantitative report.
Therefore my report is basically theory based and 3 qualitative. Nevertheless I have
put my best effort in creating a constructive report that might serve both my academic
purposes and help the organization as well.
The whole Digital Marketing team of Nogor Solutions Ltd. has been tremendously
helpful in providing me information and insights in this regard from their experience
which has proven to be instrumental in constructing this report.
extends to non-Internet channels that provide digital media, such as mobile phones
Page
(both SMS and MMS), callback and on-hold mobile ring tones, social media
marketing, display advertising, e-books, optical disks and games, and any other form
of digital media. According to the Digital Marketing Institute, Digital Marketing is the
use of digital channels to promote or market products and services to consumers and
businesses.
In a place where media messages are ever present, marketers have embedded the
industry into the daily life of society. As the world has continued to change and grow,
so has technology. With the advancements and improvements of technology, the
media industry has evolved and adapted trying to form new strategies in order to
capture its consumers. When the Internet did not exist, marketers relied on television,
newspapers, magazines, flyers, billboards, etc. Print made up a huge portion of the
industry because that was the primary way to reach people. Today, that is no longer
the case. With the invention of the Internet, the growth of the print industry has
declined, thus making marketers turn towards electronic distribution methods. This
new shift has required companies to start implementing and developing digital
marketing strategies. As companies begin researching this new development, they
have noted that “traditional roadside billboards, print advertisements and direct mail
have all suffered, but digital alternatives are starting to become more prevalent, such
as billboards and transport advertisements, and advertisements in digital editions of
print media, such as mobile applications for traditional publications” (Business Wire,
2012). Noticing and understanding these trends helps marketers see where the future
is headed. According to Marketing Weekly News (2012), “Digital marketing remains
a growth area, as marketers shift towards new advertising methods at the expense of
traditional formats.” While understanding the evolution and what’s to come of the
marketing field, it is important for those within the industry to understand the options
available. With that in mind, “A recent report by analyst firm Gartner predicts that
digital strategies like social and mobile marketing will influence at least 80 percent of
the consumers’ discretionary spending by 2015. That being said, it is vital to explore
and identify the three current categories of digital marketing. These include online,
mobile, and social marketing.
This study helps to understand and know how to deal with different kinds of
customers and how to make impressive online campaigns. This report will also try to
illustrate how digital marketing is the most important and effective marketing method
9
The objectives of this report to know all types of solutions about digital marketing
which are offering in Bangladesh that’s why I have chosen Nogor Solutions Limited
Company so that I can make a case study.
Added together, the world’s internet users will spend more than 1.25 billion

2014 is about to end and we have seen social media platforms starting to take off as
Internet penetration increase. When Grameenphone zero-rated Facebook for
Bangladesh, there was a sudden spike of internet usage and number of Facebook
users. The first experience for many people with Internet has been Facebook, so don’t
be surprised when people in the rural area recognize Facebook before the word
Internet. For digital marketers, 2015 will be an important year to reach their target
market faster and cheaper, it’s a time to leverage social media assets with accurate
measurement tools to give better ROI — bang for the buck.
13
Here are some of the trends that we think will make digital marketing important for
Page
smart for all brands to collectively promote the other platforms too. Instagram is a
Page
great way to promote “photo contests” with hash tags. Twitter is a good way to make
announcements on product releases, awareness and drive sales with consumers who
follow throughout the day. It’s quick, short and easy with to connect with audience.
Pinterest is a good resource sharing board. Though many people forget, links and
articles get lost in twitter, facebook and instagram as there are so many updates.
Pinterest is the perfect board where you can pin things so your greatest resources or
content you want to share with your audience doesn’t get lost. Brands can create
“fashion or lifestyle” boards where consumers can follow too.
1.5.4.6. Advertisement cost will rise on Digital Media- As more marketers spend on
digital media platforms, costs will rise. Facebook ad buying has already increased as
there are more people spending today than ever before in Bangladesh. Facebook stores
who sell products, E-Commerce companies and large brands are heavily spending to
increase “fans” and also to drive engagement and sales. It is still the most effective
way to drive sales if done properly, but Facebook ad platform has its limitations for the
time being. We cannot target ads or boost posts by city in Bangladesh, yet which is a
huge problem if targeting ads just for Dhaka city. That’s where ad platforms like G&R
become handy. If you are trying to promote your Facebook page to a particular city,
why not try G&R ad platform with city targeting and drive the ad towards your
Facebook page to have relevant fans. Alternatively if you cannot do that, make content
that is very relevant to your target cities audience or try offline events that Magnito
Digital has done in the past to get local audience to like your page and then target ads
to “Friends of Friends,”
means brands need to spend more to reach the “fans” they have accumulated over
Page
time.
1.5.4.8. Native Advertising — the new buzzword in the street. Put simply, native
advertising is a way of using content marketing on online publication sites to reach
people. It is beyond what the local Bangladesh market is accustomed to which is
“banner ads,” facebook ads or video promotions but native advertising is a powerful
practice of using content to build trust and engagement with future or current
customers. Examples of native advertisement can be a Brand powering a series of
articles to reach a certain a larger audience and this content is shareable unlike Banner
ads. Consumers can read associate the Brand with the content. Other examples is
mentioning brands by writers or editorial staff, sponsored content about the Brand or
thought leadership pieces. If you are interested in native advertising then get in touch
with SDasia, they are leading the way.
will surely drive Internet penetration as people experience Internet in different ways.
Page
We see the Internet penetration widening with GOB efforts as well. A “Internet Day”
nationally everyday will surely accelerate internet penetration just through awareness
building.
2. Literature Review
Digital Marketing refers the marketing through digital medias like internet, TV,
mobile etc. than the traditional media such as newspaper advertisement, billboard,
magazine advertisement etc. Right now, digital marketing is biting the traditional
marketing. It has many ways to market digitally like SEO, Search Engine Marketing
(SEM), content marketing, social media marketing; e-mail marketing, e-commerce
marketing, display advertisement etc. are most popular methods to reach the potential
customers easily.
The term 'digital marketing' was first used in the 1990s. In the 2000s and the 2010s,
digital marketing became more sophisticated as an effective way to create a
relationship with the consumer that has depth and relevance. While the term 'digital
marketing' may not have been used until the 1990s, digital marketing itself has roots
to the mid-1980s when the Soft Ad Group, now Channel Net developed advertising
campaigns for several major automobile companies, wherein people would send in
reader reply cards found in magazines and receive in return floppy disks that
contained multimedia content promoting various cars and offering free test drives.
A growing number of people are now using internet and modern people are very tech-
conscious. According to Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory & Commission
(BTRC), almost 80 million people are using internet at the moment in Bangladesh.
Realizing the fact that a handsome number of people are browsing internet every day,
different companies have changed their marketing policies and diverted the attention
towards digital marketing.
Digital marketing is the marketing of products or services using digital technologies,
mainly on the Internet, but also including mobile phones, display advertising, and any
other digital medium. Digital marketing's development since the 1990s and 2000s has
19
changed the way brands and businesses use technology for marketing. As digital
Page
platforms are increasingly incorporated into marketing plans and everyday life, and as
people use digital devices instead of visiting shops, digital marketing campaigns are
becoming more significant and useful.
Digital marketing has been introduced in our country quite a few years back and
people are accepting this form of marketing style. Digital marketing is completely
different from traditional marketing. To define digital marketing in other words, it can
be said that, digital marketing refers to the support for products or brands via one or
more forms of electronic media. It is not only a rapidly growing force in the current
marketing arena, it is expected to be the future of marketing, and it seems likely that
digital media will soon replace more traditional forms altogether. The fact is that
digital methods of communication and marketing strategies are faster, more versatile,
practical and streamlined. Moreover, it is more affordable and customer-oriented than
traditional marketing. The key forms of digital marketing include website
development, SEO, online video content, e-mail marketing, social media marketing,
PPC (Pay-Per Click) advertising, branded & non-branded SMS marketing, banner &
logo design, image post-production and many more things. (Ref: The daily sun)
The rapid evolution of digital media has created new opportunities and avenues for
advertising and marketing. Fueled by the proliferation of devices to access digital
media, this has led to the exponential growth of digital advertising.
In 2012 and 2013 statistics showed digital marketing remained a growing field. Digital
media growth is estimated at 4.5 trillion online ads served annually with digital media
spend at 48% growth in 2010.
Digital marketing is maintaining the customer relationship for promotional purpose. All
marketing policy’s main purpose is to reach the ultimate customer. Here, the branches of
Digital marketing work virally all over the web and main target is to reach the final
maximum customers. That‘s why people from all over the world welcoming this new
form of marketing and the uses of it are increasing day by day. Digital advertising started
its journey on the year 1990. After that it becomes very popular form in the marketing
era. Bangladesh is also going this roadmap their digital marketing is grown up cause in
2014 to 2015 is huge development in ICT sector. Some people say that digital
20
marketing is any kind of marketing that uses electronic devices. Others say its
Internet-based marketing. (Ref: IGNITE VISIBILITY)

2.2.2. The Digital Marketing Trends in 2020: What is the Future of Marketing?
(Ref: Consultyasser.com)
They have been reading several stories and predications which outline few sexy and
21
Digital marketing has been evolving during the last 4 years dramatically and some
people are not paying attention. The changes have been coming in different waves for
almost 10 years between 2010 to 2020, and these changes are not going to settle down
easily. It is going to be brutal in the coming years more than any time before. We
have been seeing strong indicators of this major shift in digital marketing, yet we have
been consuming it slowly or resisting it.
However, I did learn a great fact during my years of leading marketing teams and
consulting brands and by speaking to my fellow marketers across different industries
and regions. This fact is straightforward and simple; “Management doesn’t care about
how you the digital marketing executes; it is all about the results”. Any given CMO at
22
any given day is looking at one thing only; how is the performance doing? Don’t get
Page
me started!
2.2.2.1.1. Marketing methodology: What’s going on with marketing?
Dr. Dave Chaffey’s in his latest blog the six big 2020 marketing trends, indicated
several major areas including lifecycle marketing, conservational marketing and
marketing technology. His conclusion that marketing predictions are mainly focused
on technology, platforms and channels. He believes we have been in years of jumping
between trendy channels and tools without having a solid vision or understanding the
strategic objectives of digital marketing.
With the advantages of data and effective tracking of digital marketing, companies
started centralizing the marketing department as the ROI factory. It is becoming
aggressive and marketers are shifting from the creative side to the executions side of
the corporate with more tasks of sales, customer relationship management and
growth.
The complexity of ROI measurements is left to marketers to handle. Gradually, the
marketing role is under the fire of making money with less interest in measuring other
marketing roles such as brand positioning and visibility. Whether we like it or not,
this fact about marketing is going to lead in the future.
We believe in data and performance, but this new role of marketing which is going to
dominate more is showing a huge impact on marketers we have been seeing lately
such as the intolerance from top management which resulted in a high turnover as
they are measuring marketing performance based on ROI mainly.
According to LinkedIn analysis, marketing roles had the highest turnover rate of any
job function—an impressive 17%. That’s more than 50% higher than marketing week,
81% of respondents suggest they are likely to change jobs within 3 years, while 38%
of which will do so by the end of this year.
23

Even CMOs are hardly able to survive more than a year or two. Performance growth,
quick catches, short term plans are more important than long term strategy and
investing in brand value, quality content and creative campaigns. Therefore, everyone
is under the stress and the marketing is shifting towards improving the present ROI
not building a brand that can generate future ROI. In conclusion, marketing in 2020
and coming years is going to focus on quick wins strategies and the marketing
positions will continue to the highest turnover without a stable ground to flourish.
That’s why I am not considered about sexy trends such as micro-influencers,
interactive emails, conversational marketing, etc. These are great and attractive
methods to implement, but we all know as marketers, that setting up a solid marketing
strategy requires a deeper understanding of the consumer before encountering
channels and setting up technology.
will need to catch up quickly with not only their creativity but also with a solid data

2.2.2.1.3. The change in marketing skills
As we discussed the effect of technology, we have to tie it with data. Eventually,
understanding the demand in the market we had to review in the previous points how
marketing is moving forward in order for marketers to understand the environment
they serve at.
Apparently, all the trends that are rising in the marketing will continue to be affecting
the marketers. I have the habit of regularly checking the job descriptions on LinkedIn
posted by companies from different regions and different industries. There are few
facts that draw my attention which can summarize the change happening in marketing
roles.
Encrypted titles: There are no standard titles for the majority of marketing jobs. For
marketing analyst some companies might call it “Marketing Intelligence Manager” or
26
“Data Analysis Manager”, and several more titles based on the company culture. We
have been into that conflict since years ago when it comes to performance titles as
Page
some people use the term “PPC” and some call it “Paid search” and some call it
“Performance manager” and so on. HR is even borrowing the title “Marketing
consultant” for recruiters who are specialized in marketing hiring. I have no idea why
they are doing this!! It is a big mess when it comes to titles and the more the platforms
and tools we have, the more the titles are diversified. Sometimes it takes a while to
understand a title with encrypted title and strange combination of duties. Startups are
reinventing the titles of marketing and setting new titles that is nonspecific and more
flexible to match their diversified needs.
The demand for data jobs: Everyone is hiring data experts in their team since the
data-driven approach is taking over. This trend will continue to rise in 2020 and the
coming few years till eventually, things will change. My prediction that this trend will
decrease at some point for two reasons. First, the future marketers would adopt data
skills and it will become an essential skill the same as any admin or management
skills the marketer has to acquire to proceed with his career. This already did happen
before when the traditional offline marketers had to learn digital marketing to survive.
The same scenario will happen with data analytic skills. It is going to be a must.
Second, with the increasing competition business will understand that data is telling
27
what is happening and why it is happening? but the missing part will be what we need
to make it happen? I expect in the coming years, creativity jobs will return to rising
Page
and take over the top trend of skills demand. We can see a quick hint for that
happening already in the below stats. According to Altimeter report of 2019, Data
Analysis is considered the highest demand for marketing skills, however, there is a
huge rise for skills in video editing and production. This fact outlines how creative
skill such as video production is becoming one of the major needs for the marketing
industry.
While the marketing trends in 2020 are going to bring some heads-up of hot new
channels and interesting tactics we need to adopt, there are many crucial facts is
happening in the background and we need to dig deeper in order to be prepared. The
business environment and technology are going to reshape the industry as well as
marketing skills. If you have a further opinion, please share so we can enhance this
discussion.
Growth of internet users must be credited for the growth of Digital marketing. With
the advent of internet technology number of internet user is increasing at the greater
extent across the world. Bangladesh stands at Ninth place with 96 million internet
users in 2019. (www.internetwoldstats.com).

Technology has made the world a global village. Like population Internet users are
also growing in Bangladesh rapidly. According to Bangladesh Business News there

It’s often the case that when people want to learn more about a particular subject or
buy something, they begin with an online search. That reality is gold for a lot of
marketers. Why? Because if they can put their brand at the top of the search engine
results pages (SERPs), they can pick up some additional business.
Of course, it’s not often the case that websites appear at the beginning of the search
results by accident. It’s usually the result of a very careful (and sometimes expensive)
effort. That effort is called search engine optimization (SEO). It’s a way that digital
strategists “convince” the search engines that their websites should rank high for one
or more search terms:
Like digital marketing, SEO is multi-faceted. There are numerous ways to optimize a
30
Another great way to promote our brand is with social media marketing (SMM). One
of the best advantages of social media marketing is that it’s free. Sure, we can run ads
on various social media channels, but we’ll cover that in the next section. Our goal
when it comes to SMM can be summed up in one word: engagement. When people
comment on your post, share it, or “like” it, you’re getting a response from people in
your target market. That response helps you build trust with those folks. More than
that, though, engagement helps you promote your business. That’s because some of
the social media sites (like Facebook) will use engagement to determine the
“popularity” of a post. Very popular posts, as you might have noticed, tend to get
pushed to the top of people’s feeds and get even more exposure. That’s why you
should post content on social media that helps your followers. Do that instead of just
32
posting sales pitches and you’ll go a long way in earning people’s respect. Of course,
Page
it’s also important to pick the right social media channels for your brand.
For example, if you’re running a company that relies heavily on visuals for promotion
(a fashion company, as an example), then you should be active on image-centric
social media channels like Instagram and Pinterest.
On the other hand, if you’re running a B2B company, then LinkedIn is our sweet spot.
We’ve already discussed one form of pay-per-click advertising: SEM. But that’s not
the only option out there. In fact you can run ads through a variety of ad networks and
even on social media channels. Although online ads offer a great way to drive traffic
to your site, be sure to check with your accountant to make sure the ROI is worth it.
Otherwise, we could go in the hole while drawing an audience. Social media sites
offer some of the best bang for our buck when it comes to advertising because you
can run a campaign to an audience that’s likely to be part of our target market. Just
select who sees our ad based on demographics and interests and let it run. Some ad
networks also let we run native ads. It’s best to look at sites that run native ads so we
can get an idea of what types of ads are most effective.
Of course, we can also run banner ads on websites as well. Just be sure to limit our
advertising only to those sites most frequently visited by people in our market.
Did we know that we can make money by selling products without even carrying an
inventory? We can, with affiliate marketing. Some companies let us advertise their
products on our website. If one of our visitors buys a product, we get a commission.
It’s that simple. Of course, we have to get approved to become an affiliate marketer.
Some brands don’t want to be affiliated with certain types of websites (for obvious
reasons). Approval is usually pretty easy, though. We fill out an online application,
submit our tax information, and wait for the response. Once we’re approved, we can
start listing that company’s products on our website and reap the rewards of our sales.
One of the most popular affiliate programs is Amazon Associates. Yes, we can make
money selling pretty much anything that Amazon sells. In other words: we can make
money selling anything. If we don’t want to be tied down to just one company,
33
though, we can head over to Commission Junction and find countless online e-tailers
Page
participating in affiliate programs. Select a few that is relevant to our niche and
advertise their products on our website.
2.2.5.1.1. Product
Product determines the service or item which is up for selling for the buyers. A

Mobile Apps.
2.2.5.1.2. Price
Price explains the value of the product. The buyer pays a price to the seller in
exchange for the product or service used. Normally, the price or the value of the
product depends on a variety of internal and external factors.
2.2.5.1.3. Place
Place indicates a distribution pipeline of sales for the product. Place implies – making
the product available easily to potential buyers. The success of the product majorly
depends on the right placement of the product.
2.2.5.1.4. Promotion
Usually, promotion involves any activity or action taken in order to sell or advertise
the product. The activities like advertising, events, customer incentive schemes,
marketing are all included in the promotion of the product. Example: Search engine
optimization, Paid traffic, Social media marketing, Content marketing, Email
marketing.

It is era of science and technology. As internet is available in our country, young and
middle age people use internet as usually. They mostly use social media like
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, what’s app etc. So, it becomes very easy to
reach the targeted people to aware the products and services.
Although the idea of digital marketing comes in the mid of 1980 but finally it has
used in 1990 and it gained widely within 2000 to 2010.

5.2. Conclusion
Considering the low cost, specific targeting, more engagement, etc. is the best way of
practicing Digital Marketing in Bangladesh. It increases the interaction with
customers. To reach the foreign clients or customers, it is the only perfect way to
communicate but one important thing is that only easy marketing policy is not enough
for success in companies in Bangladesh. They have to provide quality product or
service, considering competitive price as well as timely delivery.
Besides creating awareness about digital e-marketing among the Bangladeshi
exporters is essential. They should create an association to play a significant role at
the outside of Bangladesh. Technology, as well as infrastructural constraints, can be
overcome by accepting the existing laws and regulations or by creating new rules if
needed. 55
