Most businesses get sold digital tactics – SEO, PPC, Social Media. But few plan an overall strategy which covers all the steps needed to win new customers. Consider this:
• Poor Strategy + Poor Tactics = Slow Failure
• Poor Strategy + Good Tactics = Fast Failure
• Good Strategy + Poor Tactics = Slow Growth
• Good Strategy + Good Tactics = Fast Growth
Developing the right strategy to transform your process to integrated marketing is far more important than executing individual, disjointed online marketing tactics.
