Trust me or come down to my office and you’ll come to know that I receive numerous business queries on daily basis but I have to let them go as we lack resources/manpower. There is a huge scope in digital marketing because of  the shortage of SEO analyst, optimized content writers, social media managers, Google analytics expert etc.

And hence, there lies an opportunity for all those who are willing or thinking to become a DIGITAL MARKETER.

Let me take you through the current trends, opportunities, and future of digital marketing.

Current Trends in Digital Marketing
