How we market to consumers has changed drastically over the years. With the changes in technology, we have seen an increase in the usage of digital marketing over traditional within a marketing campaign. Which leads to the question of which form of marketing has the best outcome for your business. We came up with some pros and cons of both digital and traditional marketing to decide which produces the greatest outcome for your company. 

In this digital age, we’re often looking for new ways to keep occupied, especially now more than ever with the pandemic. We, like many, decided to give TikTok a go. At the start of 2020 alone, TikTok was downloaded 315million times, which set a new record for the most installed app in such a short period! Today TikTok has had more than 2 billion downloads, with over 689 million active users, and is only getting bigger as the days go on.

This is one of the many reasons why your business should start using this giant social media platform (if not already) to generate new leads, connect with customers and develop a stronger brand presence. 

Here are a few reasons why your company should be using TikTok as a part of your marketing strategy. 

What is video content marketing? This form of marketing is simply adding engaging videos to your marketing strategy. This is integral to modern day marketing, as videos are a growing social media trend due to their engaging nature and ensuing success in achieving sales. In the digital era, it is essential for businesses to be up-to-date with the most effective and successful forms of marketing trends. Video marketing is expected to be a permanent trend and therefore essential marketing technique for your company’s tool kit. Research exposes that 74% of consumers that view an online video explaining a product end up purchasing it.  It would be impractical in the digital era to not include videos in your marketing campaign.
