Marketing in the Digital platform is the need of the century and not many ventures whether big or small in these days can go very far without investing time, money and effort in this field. However, there have been many occasions when epic digital media marketing fails caused ventures to collapse almost overnight. What you convey, how and under what situations is taken extremely seriously by the target audience and nothing can pass the critically meticulous judgement of the latter. So, if you are among the professionals who have been vested with digital media responsibility, here are a few essentials that will help you avoid disastrous fails…
To begin with, you always need to curb your creativity with wit and the ongoing socio cultural ambience. If you are blatantly unaware of these basics while exercising your creativity at its best, there are ample chances that you will recreate the Kenneth Cole goof up through the Egyptian Riots once again. If you are however, involved with digital media marketing in China, you can be amply assured about a number of checks and balances that will prevent you from making such errors.
Secondly, in the world of digital media marketing, bad publicity is taken as 'bad publicity only'. Thinking that you may manage to set uber fearless trends by demeaning someone or something is never going to work. If you are moving ahead with such ideas, please brush up with the Abercrombie and Fitch disaster where they asked the Jersey Shore Star to stop wearing their creations and then went ahead to publicize it! In very simple words, Who Does That! The golden word is to 'promote' and not 'demote'.
Thirdly, simplicity is always expected and cherished. Some of the most successful and memorable campaigns in time have been embedded with comprehensive simplicity. Going over board can complicate things leading to confusion and thereby fail the effort.
