Digital Marketing made easy

For those of you wondering where was I, (and I do hope this is the case), I was in the midst of organizing an event -- which happens in 3 months time now. As every marketer knows, event marketing is the ultimate acid test of any marketer. You've got to generate PR (and yes, news hour worthy PR, no less), invite delegates (and get them to confirm), generate promotion and word-of-mouth, conduct massive social media marketing activities, ensure that the event format is robust and fault-free, secure partnerships, alliances, sponsorships -- no wonder I was missing for 2 months! However, loads of lessons and insights-- and how-to-s, will be back with a post on event marketing soon. In the meantime, this image pretty much captures my state over the past few months!

I've battled with this long enough.."How to Grow Your Twitter Followers", "I don't have enough of them", "They are not engaged ", and the saga goes on and on... Image source: http://slate.me/1w9F1eq So, is it really important to have an army of Twitter followers..what would you rather have.. a small band of committed, dedicated followers, who value and appreciate your content, or else are you happy having a couple of thousands? Okay, that was overkill,  you'd be happy, as long as they are legit. So, what can a marketer nursing a nascent brand on Twitter tell you? That is me, btw. It will be useful to mention here a framework that I came across, Content, Engagement, and Rewards. Content: First, as a Twitter newborn you will take the first 100 or so tweets to find your "editorial voice".
