Key Insights from the Digital & Social Marketing Conference

Last week I covered the Digital & Social Marketing Conference in New York.

There were many amazing panel discussions on Digital and Social Marketing. My key takeaways were:

1. Influencer Marketing is growing and it is up to brands to get it right.


2.Brands need to use Social Listening to understand their Customers if they expect to grow.


3. Brands need to have two way conversations with customers across social channels instead of just broadcasting one way advertising messages.


4. Creating and using infographics are great ways to engage an audience.
