Digital marketing is a broad term that incorporates most ads you see on social media and also refers to using digital storytelling as a new way of marketing and personalizing what content your business pushes out both online and offline. Be sure to include different storytelling methods into your marketing strategy to highlight aspects of your business.

Content marketing is no longer key - Simplicity is.
Delivering high-quality and unique content is becoming more challenging with each new year, as customers are becoming more intelligent and savvier about new technology. There are different types of high-quality content with unique approaches to solving customer issues, like blogging and influencer content; which, is growing exponentially. By adding a personalized twist and experience stories, you can educate your audience overselling to them. Recommendations also help you become a more credible leader within your industry. People will only become more selective in what they see online in the coming years as their expectations increase.

Branding is still a key element to have in your marketing strategy.
Creating a stronger brand image for your business is imperative to your marketing strategy to help generate word-of-mouth recommendations. Choosing the right words, communication channels, and providing quality service will strengthen your brand awareness and trust. Customers are more willing to share good experiences, which can assist in raising organic brand awareness. Add educational content for your products and services like video tutorials, podcasts, and other web content. Having multiple content marketing options is crucial when building a better brand for your business. To be beneficial to your brand, the content you choose to deliver needs to be relevant and engaging to your customer. You do not have to post content every day either, and you should focus more on quality over quantity.

Be more proactive in your customer retention.
Customer retention is a huge factor in any business industry, and in the new year, you should become more proactive in engaging and retaining customers. Host contests and giveaways with your customers' favorite products, offer New Year's sales and launch new products catering to the needs of your audience for more engagement both online and offline. Adapting your New Year's marketing strategy to focus on impulse purchases through upselling products to your customers proves you think about their needs while offering these items at a discount shows you care. This way, when customers are ready to make a new purchase, they are more likely to return to your business.
