Marketing

Its a brave new world – marketing has changed – throw out your old playbook.

Marketing Strategy

Forget TV ads, banners, direct mail, trade magazines, the Yellow Pages and cold calling. When was the last time you tried to find a product or service leafing through the Yellow Pages, trade magazines or brochures you’ve saved up or got a cold call offering what you needed at that moment. The customer acquisition lifecycle has changed completely. Internet search is the primary access point.
