If you're like most organizations, there are far too many initiatives to accomplish and nowhere near enough resources to do them all. This is especially true of marketing. We are drowning in too many things to do (like all of those social posts that get five likes) and struggle to achieve the growth the organization is demanding. The answer to this is to stop trying to do everything and laser focus on the activities that achieve the most effective results.

One critical aspect of this online presence is digital advertising. For all consumers, the buying journey has changed dramatically over the last 2 decades. Where we used to rely on print, radio, and television to generate leads, and person-to-person contact to educate or nurture those leads, now we find most of that customer journey online. Each time we’re online, whether checking our email, learning something new, or shopping for groceries, we encounter ads specifically designed to convert our interest or need into action. These ads are paid placements in search results, social media sites, and wherever you might visit online. Social and search ads are a powerful way to reach your target audience but require an investment in time and resources to be successful.
