In this article, I want to talk about some of the practical steps to follow in order to run a good Digital Marketing Strategy. Follow me as we are going to look at that in this article. 

 

#1 Define your goals 

One of the very first thing that you need to do when you are starting your digital marketing journey is to define your goals. You have to know what you want to achieve with your Digital Marketing efforts.

 

You must decide whether you want to create brand awareness, generate leads for your business or others business or that you want to retain your existing customers as well. 

 

In addition to this, you have to define goals that are SMART enough. Your goals has to be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time Bound. This will guarantee that you will achieve those goals at the end of the day.

You to look at which of your social media platform is booming and which one is not. This will allow you to build a thriving online presence.
