What Is Digital Marketing and Why
Should You Care?
Digital marketing is marketing that uses electronic devices to engage with stakeholders.
Digital marketing applies technologies or platforms such as websites, e-mail, apps (classic
and mobile), Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and social networks.
Digital Marketing can be through Internet channels like Social Media, E-mails ads, Banner
ads, etc. Many organizations use a combination of traditional and digital marketing
channels; however, digital marketing is becoming more popular with marketers as it allows
them to track their Return on Investment (ROI) more accurately compared to other
traditional marketing channels.
According to the Digital Marketing Institute, Digital Marketing is the
use of digital channels to promote or market products and services to
consumers and businesses.

What Makes YOU and YOUR Business Interesting?
• What are good at? Why are you exceptional?
• What’s your story? Is it compelling?
• How is your business different from your
competitors?
• What makes you special?
• Do you have a niche that you excel at?

Find Your Uniqueness and Exploit It By Consistently Promoting Your Message Online
Use Digital Marketing to
Build Your Following
…Get More Customers
and More $$
It Starts With
Your Website!
• It's cheap. It's easy to do. And it can take less
than 20 minutes to set up. Yet more than
half of all small businesses still don't
have a website.
• Every small business needs a website.
Period. Nonnegotiable. Customers expect
one.
• Small businesses that don't have one say
they don't have the time, think it will cost too
much or don't want the rush of orders that
comes with being online. But entrepreneurs
that have jumped to the digital side say
their websites have boosted sales, cut
down on time-consuming phone calls and
brought more people into their stores.
Small business owners who
want to start a website have lots
of options that make it easier
than in the past:

• Hire a web designer
• Wix.com
• WordPress
• SquareSpace.com
• Weebly.com
Google, Bing and Yahoo! Will Give You A
“Mini” Website for FREE!
www.earlybirddigitalmarketing.com | 319-409-3287 | @sherrybonelli
Already Have a Website? Make Sure It’s
Mobile Friendly….
Most small and medium-sized businesses do not have a mobile-optimized website.
Only 6% of SMBs have a mobile site Source: Hibu

• Half of the entire population of the US is
checking their smartphones up to 150 times a
day. (ExactTarget 2014 Mobile Behavior Support)
• Consumers choose search as their No. 1 in-store
resource for helping them make purchase decisions.
(ThriveAnalytics, April 2014)
• 78% of local-mobile searches result in offline
purchases in a business. (comScore, Neustar Localeze, 15 miles, Local
Search Study, April 2014)
Be Found: SEO
