8. Considered integrated marketing drives
business growth.
With an increasingly complex media landscape any marketing
manager or business leader would be forgiven for jumping on the
latest bandwagon, heralded as the 'be all and end all' of marketing
solutions.
Be absolutely sure that any new medium is being used by your
target market.
Marketing is not an exact science and never will be, so test,
measure and revise your strategy as you go.
Take an integrated approach and meet your customers on their own
playing field.
The customer now determines the communication method.
