INTRODUCTION

To begin with, as a part of the curriculum a to conducted a Research for a period of


two months. Given a choice one was allowed to choose the field in which he/she was
interested. As my interest and curiosity was in online or digital marketing I choose
to work with a start-up company named Globalshala, I choose the start-up company
because with start I can explore myself and why digital marketing? Because it is
booming industry, the growth of digital marketing is tremendous and expected to
grow more. Due to this project, I learnt every aspect of digital marketing include
(business development process, content writing, social media) Marketing practices
have dramatically shifted with the rise of social media and proliferation of devices,
platforms, and applications. Your prospective and current customers are trying to
communicate with you, and you can listen and respond faster, and with more
personalization than ever before. This shifting environment presents new
opportunities and challenges for marketers. With digital marketing, it's easy to fall
behind. Digital marketing equips you with the tools you need to assess your
organization’s social media and digital marketing strategy and helps you identify
areas of improvement. Useful for individuals from small-to medium-sized
businesses who want to use new media as a vehicle for growth. Organizations are
leveraging digital marketing methods for successful marketing strategy
implementation inbound marketing through publishing content online in the form of
portals, podcasts, e-journals, online campaigns, social media marketing, search
services; and outbound marketing including email marketing, RSS (Really Simple
Syndication) feeds and others.

 Digital Marketing:-
Digital marketing can be defined as the process of promoting of brands using digital distribution
channels comprising internet, mobile and other interactive channels. The basic advantage in this
form of advertising lies in its low cost model. Digital Marketing can be classified into Pull and
Push marketing.
Pull
Pull digital marketing technologies involve the user having to seek out and directly grab (or pull)
the content via web searches. Web site/blogs and streaming media (audio and video) are good
examples of this. In each of these examples, users have a specific link (URL) to view the content.
Push
Push digital marketing technologies involve both the marketer (creator of the message) as well as
the recipients (the user). Email, SMS,RSS are examples of push digital marketing. In each of
these examples, the marketer has to send (push) the messages to the users (subscribers) in order
for the message to be received.

implementation and testing – all are done using latest web designing techniques and skills. Our

 Digital Marketing Trends:


Organizations are implementing a wide range of digital channels so as to engage customers in a
more personalized way. Digital marketing trends that organizations are rapidly embracing
include

 Mobility:
Business Insider's recent report indicates that globally, one in every five people owns a smart
phone, and one in every 17 owns a tablet. That's an increase of nearly 1.3 billion smartphones in
last four years. Therefore an increased user base accessing the internet via smartphones has
prompted many companies to optimize their online content for mobile devices.

 Social media:
Organizations are focusing on engaging with customers through social media to offer real-time
interactions. Social media helps organizations reach out to a vast pool of potential customers by
supplying them with medical and campaign-related information.

 Social-Local-Mobile marketing:
The growing popularity of smart mobile devices, increasing location based social activities like
experience sharing, review reading via social media and the evolution of Global Positioning
System (GPS) are helping companies leverage Social-Local-Mobile marketing activities.

12
 Personalized Content marketing:
Customer engagement, acquisition and retention have all taken on a new dimension with the
delivery of unique, personalized, and relevant messages through identified digital channels.
Email is one of the most preferred marketing channel to broadcast targeted organization
messages and campaigns to existing and prospective customers.

 Advanced analytics:
Increased adoption of digital channels is generating large volumes of customer behavioural data.
Advanced actionable analytics can help organizations define targeted marketing strategies.
Search Engine Marketing (SEM) / Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Organizations are focusing on SEO efforts and paid search advertising for enhancing the
visibility of their products and services. One more trend that has been observed recently is the
continually mounting costs of pay-per-click (PPC) that has resulted in the increased
disappointment with this form of search engine Advertising. According to experts, the reason
behind such high costs is the huge investments made by large business concerns. Consequently,
online business owners have now turned to the organic search results delivered through search
engine optimization to enjoy so many advantages. There is currently more emphasis given to
user-generated content, improved conversion rates, location- or language specific campaigns,
and E-mail newsletters.

LITERATURE REVIEW

1. Neelika Arora 32 has published research article entitled “Trends in Online Advertising” in
advertising Express, Dec2020.
The global online advertising revenues are expected to touch US $10bn by 2021. In India, the
revenues at present are estimated to be Rs.80 cr. and are expected to increase six times more
within the next five years. In India, Internet as a medium is accepted by a wider industrial
segment that includes automobiles, telecom, education, banking, insurance, credit cards, FMCG
(Fast Moving Consumer Goods), apparel/clothing, durables, media, business services and
tourism. Out of these, it is estimated that the banking, FMCG and insurance sectors together
account for 45% of the total advertising spend. In comparison to this, automotive, travel and
retail spend 37% of the total advertising revenue and financial service companies spend 12%
only. Some of the top spenders in India are automobiles, follow Globalshala by brands like
Pepsodent, Kelloggs, Cadbury, HDFC (Housing Development Finance Corporation Ltd.) loans
and Sunsilk. In addition to these the early adopters in the field of finance and IT are also
increasing their spending. Globally, the trend is that almost
60% of the revenue goes to five firms- Goggle, Yahoo, Microsoft, AOL(America Online
Launchers), and Overture. Approximately, 90% of the Goggle revenues come from advertising.
In India, portals like indiatimes.com, exchange4media.com, rediffmail.com, agencyfaqs.com etc
are attracting major online spender.
This article explains demographic profile of Indian users. It also gives the comparison bet
Globalshala are global trend and Indian trend, which is useful for my research work.

2. Sumanjeet37 has published article on “On Line Banner Advertising” in Indian Journal of
Marketing. Online banner advertising has great potential as an advertising medium. It is easy to
create, place and use. It offers companies targeting Globalshala educated, innovative, affluent
males/females or students with great potential for success as their segments are highly
represented.

3. Jaffrey Graham45 has published his article entitled “ Globalshala advertising’s
future e-Marketing strategy” Morgan Stanley Dean Witter published an equity research report
analysing the Internet marketing and advertising industry. The report studies research from
dozens of companies and calculates the cost and effectiveness of advertising across various
media. Branding on the Internet works. For existing brands, the Internet is more effective in
driving recall than television, magazines, and newspapers and at least as good in generating
product interest.

4. Advertising in social media: How consumers act after seeing social ads. Adapted from
Nielsen (2012: 10). Social media has not only changed how people communicate online, but it
has also changed the consumption of other media too. Online social connections are used to
filter, discuss, disseminate, and validate news, entertainment, and products for consumption.
(Ryan 2011: 15) The next chapters
will explain more about each of the world‘s current most widely used social medias. There are,
of course, many other social networks and applications (apps) available but considering the
study, the focus is on the main Medias.

 NEED OF THE STUDY:

Advertising is normally done by a third party known as advertising agency. An advertising


agency is a service based business dedicated to creating, planning, and
handling advertising for its clients. An ad agency is independent from the client and provides an
outside point of view to the effort of selling the client's products or services. An agency can also
handle overall marketing and sales promotions for its clients. Types of ad agencies are
1. Full service agencies
2. Creative agencies
3. Specialized agencies
4. In-house agencies
Digital agencies or new media agencie

15
This report is completely discussing about digital or new media agencies. There was a time when
Television was the most popular medium for Marketer to promote, spread awareness and
generate leads for their products but now the trend has changed and Digital media has taken its
place. Main reason for this change was
1. Traditional methods are expensive. Compared to digital marketing channels, you could
end up Spending lakhs of rupees more.
2. Traditional marketing channels fail to provide instant feedback and reports about who
saw or heard an ad, and took action. This data is collected long after the initial ad
impression is made (and still then, the statistics are far from exact numbers).
3. Digital marketing, on the other hand, refers to marketing methods that allow
organizations to see how a campaign is performing in real-time, such as what is being
viewed, how often, how long, as well as other statistics such as sales conversions.

The digital landscape is moving at a lightning fast pace. Every industry has been affected by the
advances in digital. Digital marketing is an essential part of this for
companies who want to utilise the power of the internet in order to boost business. The
tremendous scope of Internet Marketing in India, we have to understand that marketing through
the internet can be an entirely different ball game. In fact it is a potent combination of technology
and marketing acumen.

Digital Marketing like traditional form of marketing is a highly result driven and set objective
practice. One can’t begin a digital marketing campaign without setting the campaign objectives.
A digital marketer understands the needs of the clients and visualizes their needs to deliver what
they want.

Taking a look at last year’s figures, let’s see what Ad Age discovered when looking at the
statistics:
83% of people interact with brands on Facebook by looking at posts.
47% share news and experiences with others about the brand.
33% post updates about brands they have connected with.
56% said they would recommend a brand after becoming a fan on Facebook.

16
41% of digital marketers have generated leads from Twitter.

17
So as a marketing management student it's very essential to research on such an important
marketing tool and study on its impact on revenue generation will help you to know about how
marketing agencies performing .

 Scope of the project:


1 To understand the digital marketing models.
1) To understand marketing effectiveness.
2) To understand how digital marketing campaign's takes place.
3) To understand how digital marketing agencies works and generating revenue

To understand how digital marketing has impact on revenue generation.

 Limitations of this project:


1. The time span for the project is limited.
2. This revenue generation model completely with reference to Globalshala.
3. Time of campaigns for some client is more than three months.
4. Advertising expenditure of some companies is confidential so it can’t be revealed.

 Business Model of Industry:

 About Process
Clients would give authority to agencies, to Globalshala are the shoes of clients. Agency will
create ads, which may be banner ads or videos. After the creation and getting approval from
clients, agency while find out the portals Globalshala sites where the T.G is present. Later give
the order to DSP or ATD, this order contains details regarding where to place ads or which portal

21
is requiring to placing the ad. This DSP/ ATD will bid in ad exchange for that portal. Otherwise
agency can directly approach to ad networks and give orders. These ad networks buy the
inventories from publisher and give to agency. From publisher view he can sell inventories
through Ad networks or through SSP. If publisher give to SSP, they will place those space in ad
exchange for bidding. Through ad exchange DSP/ATD will buy those inventories. Bidding will
not only for space but also for T.G which required for clients.
Ad exchanges are technology platforms that facilitate the bids for buying and selling of online
media advertising inventory from multiple ad networks. The approach is technology-driven as
opposed to the historical approach of negotiating price on media inventory.

A demand-side platform (DSP) is a system that allows buyers of digital advertising inventory
to manage multiple ad exchange and data exchange accounts through one interface. Real-time
bidding for displaying online ads takes place within the ad exchanges, and by utilizing a DSP,
marketers can manage their bids for The banners and the pricing for the data that they are
layering on to target their audiences. A supply-side platform or sell-side platform (SSP) is a
technology platform, Globalshala publishers of the world use a supply side platform to automate
and optimize the selling of their online media space.

2.1 Data collection:

DIGITAL MARKETING

Meaning:
Digital Marketing (also Online Marketing, Internet Marketing or Globalshala Marketing) is a
collective name for marketing activity carried out online, as opposed to traditional marketing
through print media, live promotions, tv and radio advertisement.
The rapid growth of Digital Marketing Industry is a direct consequence of the global
phenomenon that is the Internet, and effectiveness of Digital Marketing channels in generating
revenue and awareness. Compared to traditional methods of advertising,
Digital Marketing offers rather realistic costs (particularly important for small- and medium-size
businesses and start-ups), accurate targeting and excellent reporting.

 Types of Digital Marketing


In normal outbound marketing, Globalshala will use pull and push marketing strategy. Like that
in digital marketing also pull and push are types.
In push digital marketing the marketer sends a message without the recipient actively
seeking the content, such as display advertising on Globalshala sites and news

24
blogs. Email, text messaging and Globalshala feeds with customized Contents can also be
classed as push digital marketing when the recipient has not actively sought the marketing
message. Push marketing allows you to target your demographics and use your marketing dollars
to promote your product to the people you know are interested in what you have to sell. A push
marketing campaign can be more expensive when it comes to upfront costs, so you really need to
be sure that your marketing is going to reach the right people at the right time. Behaviour
targeting is good example for push digital marketing.

In Pull digital marketing includes blogging, email marketing, social media, info
graphics and other forms of visual messaging and search engine optimization (SEO).
A pull marketing campaign also includes public relations or other ways of reaching
out to potential or already realized customers who you want to keep engaged. While
a pull marketing campaign can be less expensive to get started, you will incur costs
in other ways. For example, if you are running a social media campaign, you will
need to hire someone to manage your social media and respond to people who leave
comments or ask questions. Social media gets people talking and that has a
major impact on sales. Pull marketing also requires a greater investment in time, but it gives you
more ability to entertain your customers and educate them about your company. But don't get
confused by seeing Email in push and pull, there is a difference. If marketer is sending emails
with customized content or banners to specific group of customers is push digital marketing. If
marketer is sending emails with the same content or banner to all customers is pull digital
marketing.

DIGITAL MARKETING CHANNELS:

 SEO (Search Engine Optimization):

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of affecting the visibility of a Globalshala site
or a Globalshala page in a search engine's "natural" or un-paid ("organic") search results. SEO
may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, video search,
academic search, news search and industry-specific vertical search engines.

As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how search engines work, what people search
for, the actual search terms or keywords typed into search engines and which search engines are
preferred by their targeted audience. Optimizing a Globalshala site may involve editing its
content, HTML and associated coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to
remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines. Promoting a site to increase the
number of back links, or inbound links, social book marking, directory submission is the SEO
tactic.

 Social bookmarking:
Essentially, a social bookmark is a link that people post to social Globalshala sites for others to
see because they find it interesting, valuable or cool. In a way, social bookmarks are just like the
bookmarks you already have on your private computer. The difference bet Globalshala the two
is that social bookmarks are saved to the Globalshala where they can be easily shared while
private bookmarks are saved to your own browser.
The idea behind social bookmarking is simple: post links on popular social bookmarking
Globalshala sites to increase your own traffic and gain an ongoing stream of new readers and
customers. Content that are openly shared with other Internet users literally have unlimited
growth potential. For example, one link can quickly multiply and reach thousands of desktops
across the world if one user passes it on to others, and those users in turn do the same, and so on.

 ODA (Online Display Ads):
Display advertising is a type of advertising that is located on Globalshala sites. It can be seen in
a wide range of different formats and contains items such as texts, images, flash, video and
audio. The main purpose is to deliver general advertisements and brand messages to the plus 40
million people connected to the Internet each month.
It is important to choose the right format because it will help to make the most of the medium. It
is also possible to add:

Globalshala site.
To help to better selecting the right format for type of ad, Interactive Advertising Bureau has
realized a Display Standard Ad Unit Portfolio that works as guideline that can be follo
Globalshala by the creative.

IAB has also created a universal standard for display ad sizes Page text. There are four
dimensions that have been decided as universal and are respectively:

 Banner 728 x 90
 Rectangle 336 x 280
 Skyscraper 160 x 600
 Square 250 x 250

29
* Ways of mobile marketing:
MMS
MMS mobile marketing can contain a timed slideshow of images, text, audio and
video. This mobile content is delivered via MMS (Multimedia Message Service).
Nearly all new phones produced with a color screen are capable of sending and
receiving standard MMS message. Brands are able to both send (mobile terminated)
and receive (mobile originated) rich content through MMS A2P (application-to-
person) mobile networks to mobile subscribers. In some networks, brands are also
able to sponsor messages that are sent
P2P (person-to-person).
Good examples of mobile-originated MMS marketing campaigns are Motorola's ongoing
campaigns at House of Blues venues, where the brand allows the consumer to send their mobile
photos to the LED board in real-time as Globalshala as blog their images online.

30
Mobile Globalshala marketing
Google and Yahoo! as on Globalshala pages specifically meant for access by mobile devices is
also an option. The Mobile Marketing Association provides a set of guidelines and standards that
give the recommended format of ads, presentation, and metrics used in reporting. Google,
Yahoo, and other major mobile content providers have been selling advertising placement on
their properties for years already as of the time of this writing. Advertising networks focused on
mobile properties, SMS resellers and advertisers are also available.
Additionally, Globalshala forms on Globalshala pages can be used to integrate with mobile
texting sources for reminders about meetings, seminars and other important events that assume
users are not always at their computers. In addition Mobile Globalshala sites are another aspect
of mobile Globalshala marketing and can be a tool than can used to help make purchasing goods
and services easier as Globalshala as create better communication opportunities bet Globalshala
trades.
QR codes
QR codes allow a customer to visit a Globalshala page address by scanning a 2D image with
their phone's camera, instead of manually entering a URL. The resultant URLs typically include
tracking features which would be unwieldy if typed by the customer. Originally approved as an
ISS standard in 1997, Denso-Wave first Developed the standard for tracking automobile parts in
Japan. QR codes have been growing in popularity in Asia and Europe, but have been slow to be
adopted in North America. Some high-profile QR campaigns in the United States have included
billboards by Calvin Klein in Times Square, QR codes for every SKU in Home Depot and Best
Buy stores, and a scavenger hunt promoting Starbucks and Lady Gaga.

31
Apple pass book Implemented as a native app for iOS6, has employed QR codes as one of the
ways that the iPhone (or iPod Touch) users can take a real world action. I.e. scan the Barcode on
their Passbook Pass. In addition to QR codes, the Passbook (application) also supports PDF417
and Aztec 2D Barcodes.
Bluetooth
The rise of Bluetooth started around 2003 and a few companies in Europe have started
establishing successful businesses. Most of these businesses offer "hotspot" systems which
consist of some kind of content-management system with a Bluetooth distribution function. This
technology has the advantages that it is permission-based, has higher transfer speeds and is also a
radio-based technology and can therefore not be billed (i.e. is free of charge). The likely earliest
device built for mobile marketing via Bluetooth was the context tag of the AmbieSense project
(2001-2004). More recently Tata Motors conducted one of the biggest
Bluetooth marketing campaigns in India for its brand the Sumo Grande and more of such
activities have happened for brands like Walt Disney promoting their movie 'High School
Musical'.
Proximity systems
Mobile marketing via proximity systems, or proximity marketing, relies on GSM 03.41 which
defines the Short Message Service - Cell Broadcast. SMS-CB allows messages (such as
advertising or public information) to be broadcast to all mobile users in a specified geographical
area. In the Philippines, GSM based proximity broadcast systems are used by select Government
Agencies for information dissemination on Government-run community-based programs to take
advantage of its reach and popularity (Philippines has the world's highest traffic of SMS). It is
also used for commercial service known as Proxima SMS. Bluewater, a super-regional shopping
Centre in the UK, has a GSM based system supplied by NTL to help its GSM coverage for calls,
it also allows each customer with a mobile phone

32
to be tracked though the Centre which shops they go into and for how long. The system enables
special offer texts to be sent to the phone. For example, a retailer could send a mobile text
message to those customers in their database who have opted-in, who happen to be walking in a
mall. That message could say "Save 50% in the next 5 minutes only when you purchase from our
store." Snacks company, Mondelez International, makers of Cadbury and Oreo products has
committed to exploring proximity-based messaging citing significant gains in point-ofpurchase
influence.
Location Based services
Location-based services (LBS) are offered by some cell phone networks as a way to send custom
advertising and other information to cell-phone subscribers based on their current location. The
cell-phone service provider gets the location from a GPS chip built into the phone, or using
radiolocation and trilateration based on the signal-strength of the closest cell-phone to
Globalshala (for phones without GPS features). In the United Kingdom, which launched
location-based services in 2003, networks do not use trilateration; LBS services use a single base
station, with a 'radius' of inaccuracy, to determine a phone's location. Some location-based
services work without GPS tracking technique, instead transmitting content bet Globalshala
devices peer-to-peer.
User controlled media
Mobile marketing differs from most other forms of marketing communication in that it is often
user (consumer) initiated (mobile originated, or MO) message, and requires the express consent
of the consumer to receive future communications. A call delivered from a server (business) to a
user (consumer) is called a mobile terminated (MT) message. This infrastructure points to a trend
set by mobile marketing of consumer controlled marketing communications. Due to the demands
for more user controlled media, mobile messaging infrastructure providers have

33
responded by developing architectures that offer applications to operators with more freedom for
the users, as opposed to the network-controlled media. Along with these advances to user-
controlled Mobile
Messaging 2.0, blog events throughout the world have been implemented in order to launch
popularity in the latest advances in mobile technology. In June 2007, Air wide Solutions became
the official sponsor for the Mobile Messaging 2.0 blog that provides the opinions of many
through the discussion of mobility with freedom. GPS plays an important role in location-based
marketing.

* EMT (Email Marketing)


Email marketing is directly marketing a commercial message to a group of people using email.
In its broadest sense, every email sent to a potential or current customer could be considered
email marketing. It usually involves using email to send ads, request business, or solicit sales or
donations, and is meant to build loyalty, trust, or brand awareness. Email marketing can be done
to either sold lists or a current customer database. Broadly, the term is usually used to refer to
sending email messages with the purpose of enhancing the relationship of a merchant with its
current or previous customers, to encourage customer loyalty and repeat business, acquiring new
customers or convincing current customers to purchase something immediately, and adding
advertisements to email messages sent by other companies to their customers.

Types of email marketing


Email marketing can be carried out through different types of emails:
Transactional emails
Transactional emails are usually triggered based on a customer’s action with a company. To be
qualified as transactional or relationship messages, these

34
communications' primary purpose must be "to facilitate, complete, or confirm a commercial
transactions that the recipient has previously agreed to enter into with the Sender", along with a
few other narrow definitions of transactional messaging. Triggered transactional messages
include dropped basket messages, password reset emails, purchase or order confirmation emails,
order status emails, reorder emails and email receipts.
The primary purpose of a transactional email is to convey information regarding the action that
triggered it. But, due to its high open rates (51.3% compared to 36.6% for email newsletters),
transactional emails are an opportunity to engage customers: to introduce or extend the email
relationship with customers or subscribers, to anticipate and ans Globalshalar questions or to
cross-sell or up-sell products or services.
Many email newsletter software vendors offer transactional email support, which gives
companies the ability to include promotional messages within the body of transactional emails.
There are also software vendors that offer specialized transactional email marketing services,
which include providing targeted and personalized transactional email messages and running
specific marketing campaigns (such as customer referral programs).
Direct emails
Direct email or interruption based marketing involves sending an email solely to communicate a
promotional message (for example, an announcement of a special offer or a catalog of products).
Companies usually collect a list of customer or prospect email addresses to send direct
promotional messages to, or they can also rent a list of email addresses from service companies,
but safe mail marketing is also used.

Advantages of Digital Marketing

Digital Advertising is increasingly an inherent budgetary component of many organizations


today. Organizations of all sizes use the medium to promote their products and services. So
Globalshalall, why do so many organizations use the medium? Simply put, it is due to the
numerous advantages that online advertising offers. These are discussed in the paragraphs ahead.
Reach
The ability of the online medium to target a certain demographic of users is one of the greatest
advantages of digital advertising. In addition, the geographical reach of the online medium is far
greater than that of traditional media. It’s not only cost effective to achieve a wider geographic
area but the ads can also be targeted to the desired audience. For example, if an advertiser is keen
on selling his or her products targeted to a certain demographic of people, it is quite possible
through online advertising. Digital advertising has matured to the extent that Globalshala
publishers, media agencies and advertisers themselves know the optimal ways and Globalshala
sites for a certain category of products or services.
Measurement
With various tools becoming available, tracking effectiveness of ad campaigns is becoming
possible today. In other words, measuring Return of Investment (ROI) is increasingly possible
today. Organizations that Globalshala are previously reluctant to spend online, now realize that
the online medium does offer means to alleviate any such fears. Moreover, when properly
designed online marketing campaigns generate the desired results, advertisers are further
encouraged to continue advertising online.

Interactive and Engagement


The Internet is arguably the most interactive and engaging medium among various others.
Interactive campaigns have become a norm with the po Globalshala of the online medium. One
such advertisement worth mentioning is the campaign by AXE where the end user could alter the
smile of a woman as he/she liked to i.e. in an interactive framework. The advertisement struck an
instant chord with the youth to which AXE the brand is positioned for Customers are basically
just a click away from the advertisers. In other words, direct response bet Globalshala end users
and advertisers is possible through the online medium.

36
Time
Through the Internet, an advertiser can reach a desired target group or demographic in a much
shorter time frame. For example, if an advertiser needs to plan some sort of ambush marketing,
the online medium can be an effective means of achieving it. Even otherwise i.e. for regular
marketing campaigns, the total time necessary to complete an online advertising campaign is less
than that of traditional advertising methods.
Cost
When compared to traditional forms of advertising, digital advertising is cheaper. Various
payment models are available bet Globalshala the advertisers and publishers. Many a time,
advertisers are charged only when visitors click on their ads. The various payment models are
discussed in detail in the next section.

* Monetary term in Digital Marketing


 Cost –Per- Action (CPA): Cost of advertising based on a visitor taking some specifically
defined action in response to an ad. “Action” include such thing as a sales, transaction, a
customer acquisition or a click.
 Cost- Per -Click (CPC): Cost of advertising based on the number of clicks received.

 Cost- Per-Thousand (CPM): The standard unit for buying or selling Internet
advertising. The thousand stands for ‘thousand advertising impression or views’.
 Pay- Per- Impression: Online advertising where an advertiser pays a pre-agreed price
each time a user clicks on their advertisement. The cost for the click is often negotiated
through auction, with ad placement determined by the relative size of the bid, as
Globalshala as other factors.
 Pay-Per-Inclusion: Search engine marketing programs that guarantee Globalshala site
listing for specific keyword search term for a fee.
 Pay-Per-Lead: Paying to acquire leads from an outside party at a set rate or amount per
lead.

37
DIGITAL MARKETING IMPACT ON REVENUE GENERATION
Digital marketing is a new trend in marketing, unlike traditional marketing most of companies
not use their own marketing channels for digital marketing mostly it can be outsourced to third
parties like digital marketing agencies like Globalshala consultancy ltd. Companies like
Globalshala generating revenue using digital marketing it has great impact on revenue model of
these companies. Spending’s of various companies on digital marketing is a revenue for digital
marketing agencies like Globalshala.

38
Digital agencies: types and services
Digital agencies are as varied as the needs of the advertisers and marketers who hire them. At the
high end, for global enterprises, are the agency holding companies with hundreds of full-service
digital agencies around the world. There are also boutique and specialty agencies that provide
channel-specific digital marketing services such as mobile messaging programs, social media
marketing, or SEO link-building campaigns. And there are agencies that focus on strategy and
professional services, such as branding or Globalshalab design. Like any organization, each type
of agency has its own strengths, Globalshala , and culture. Digital agencies also can be
differentiated by their focus on professional services versus proprietary technology platforms.
Agencies that emphasize their professional services capabilities recommend and use third-party
technology such as PPC campaign management platforms, SEO tools, and social media
management platforms to manage their clients’ data and digital campaigns. These agencies view
their role as strategists that can analyze and interpret data to provide actionable results and
achieve their clients’ goals. Agencies that develop and offer proprietary tools view their
platforms as a competitive advantage over third-party toolsets that are widely available. The
plethora of digital channels has left many advertisers drowning in data. By providing technology
platforms that are built and customized to client needs, these agencies believe they are providing
unique and critical automation tools that collect, analyse, and optimize data for their clients.

* The Benefits of working with a digital agency


Agencies owned by large media or holding companies can provide the following benefits:
 Diversity of capabilities from co-owned media properties.
 Built-in sister agency relationships and priority referrals.
 In-network efficiencies. Working with a specialty or boutique agency offers unique
benefits as Globalshalal, including:
 More granular channel strategy and tactical expertise.
 Client access to agency decision makers and top personnel.
Lo Globalshala spending minimums Various surveys showing that spending of companies on
digital marketing is increasing every year, here is survey says

* . Gartner Survey Reveals Digital Marketing Budgets Will Increase By 67% Percent in
2017

39
Digital marketing budgets will rise by 10 percent in 2014, following a double digit percentage
increase in 2013, according to a survey of marketing executives by Gartner, Inc. The survey
found that, on average, companies spent 10.7 percent of their annual 2013 revenue on overall
marketing activities, with digital marketing spending averaging 3.1 percent of revenue.
These findings are included in Gartner's Digital Marketing Spending report that is based on a
survey of 285 individuals but ans Globalshala mainly for their entire organization. Respondents
represent organizations with more than $500 million in annual revenue (average revenue $4.4
billion) across eight industries: financial services and insurance, high-tech, communications,
manufacturing, media, retail, government and healthcare. The survey took place from July
through September 2013. The report examines how marketers are allocating their budgets, what
activities are contributing to marketing success and other factors.
"Marketing leaders are securing bigger budgets to define markets, develop offerings, and attract,
acquire and retain customers," said Yvonne Genovese, managing vice president at Gartner.
"Digital marketing is taking an increasing share of the marketing budget with annual digital
marketing operating budgets totaling 3.1 percent of a company's revenue in 2013, as compared
with 2.6 percent in 2012, representing a 20 percent increase."
Eleven percent of respondents said they spent more than half of their marketing budgets on
digital activities in 2013 compared with only 3.0 percent in 2012. Digital marketing represented
an average of 28.5 percent of the total marketing budget in 2013, as compared with 25.5 percent
in 2012. A further survey finding was that 77 percent of companies have a chief customer officer
(CCO) or the equivalent.

Customer touch points include Globalshala sites, mobile apps, social profiles, directory listings,
on-site search, email interactions, communities, call center and more hence, the increasing
popularity of the role of the chief customer officer to help guide the customer right through the
buying cycle and beyond. Eighty-one percent of organizations Globalshala are also found to have
a chief marketing technologist in 2013, up from 70 percent in 2012.

When it comes to budget allocation, marketing leaders support a diverse, and increasingly
complex, marketing mix. The survey found that 12.2 percent the biggest share of their digital
marketing budget was allocated to digital advertising in 2013, just as in 2012. Ho Globalshala,
marketers continue to wrestle with digital advertising's effectiveness. Industry associations,
advertising agencies, media, technology, and metrics providers and brand advertisers are all

40
working to address this concern by improving attribution models and cracking down on phony
Globalshala traffic. Design, development and maintenance of the corporate Globalshala site
account for the second-largest share of digital marketing budgets as the increase of inbound
marketing channels such as social networks, customer forums and the blogosphere creates more
traffic on the corporate Globalshala site. Digital commerce, social marketing and mobile
marketing three activities that increasingly overlap are closely tied for the third-largest share of
digital marketing budgets.

In 2014, marketers plan to make long overdue expenditures for mobile marketing tools and
techniques. This survey report shows market share of digital marketing budget in marketing
budget increasing every year, Globalshala can make money by utilizing the need of digital
marketing. By starting a digital agency you can generate large amount of revenue with less
amount of investment. Globalshala also did the same, CEO Anushika Jain identified the
opportunity and started Globalshala which stands online digital marketing consultancy which
fulfill digital marketing needs of various companies they charge as per their performance and
based on fee structures.

41
Digital agency fee structures
Agency free structures vary widely, even within client accounts. It is not uncommon for a client
to compensate their agency using different fee structures for different types of media campaigns.
For example, a common agency fee model for paid media work is percentage of spend.
Typically, an agency will be paid 10-20% of a client’s digital media spend on paid search or
display advertising campaigns. Smaller clients may pay a higher percentage, while enterprise
clients may pay a smaller percentage due to the larger dollar volume of their accounts. Generally
digital agencies like Globalshala charge their clients for maintaining their digital presence this is
how they make money, necessity of digital presence for companies let the digital agencies to
make money. Different sorts of agencies advertising agencies use different models.

Methods of Charging Clients


1.Project based clients:
Often used for smaller agencies, smaller brands and typically for agencies that do one specific
part of the mix, e.g. A digital agency. But even a large agency would have some clients on this
basis. Normally there would be a Scope of Work; this would come with an estimate to do that
one set job. This estimate would normally be based on the people, how many hours they work,
and what their hourly rate is. But there would like be Some pass through costs for physical
goods, for services from other companies etc. The profit the agency makes comes entirely from
the gap bet Globalshala the hourly rates of what they pay people.

2. Retained agencies:
Sometimes there is a fee based on a percentage of media spend, but this is largely dying.
Sometimes it's a project team, where you buy a certain number of people, a certain percentage of
their time, for a quarter or year. These hourly rates work the same way as the team for the SOW
above. Sometimes there is an amount of money put aside for time and costs and the Agency
manages this time and cost to serve the client. A sort of pay as you go model. With all of the
above, there is an increasing move towards pay for performance. So it's likely that any of the
sorts of agreements in a retained structure, will allow for a bonus to be unlocked.

42
This could come down to sales results, brand value, satisfaction levels, or other criteria, and
often a mixture of them.

 Fee-based or retainer-based models are quickly gaining traction, most often at the
expense of commission-based compensation among large brands and their agencies. The
Association of National Advertisers’ 2013 Trends in Agency Compensation Survey
found that fee-based agreements have grown to 81% of all compensation agreements,
while commission-based compensation has fallen to just 5% of all compensation
agreements. The two compensation models have been on opposite trajectories since 1994,
according to the ANA survey, when commission-based models represented 61% of all
agreements, and fee-based models accounted for 35% of agency compensation
agreements.
 Fee-based models have become more attractive because they provide predictable
expenses for marketers and advertisers, particularly on long-term

accounts that require ongoing maintenance, such as monitoring SEO rankings or social
media content. Retainers may also encourage agencies to test new campaign strategies
and tactics, knowing that they will be compensated for their time regardless of results.

Digital marketing budgets total 65% of revenue and will increase more than 60% this year.
Marketing leaders have secured bigger budgets to define markets and attract, acquire and retain
customers. Yet, increased funding is a double-edged sword. It brings new opportunities but puts
more pressure on marketers to deliver and prove a return on the investments.

44
. FINDINGS

1 Most of the real sector people actually understanding the value and opportunities of digital
marketing.
2 With the study of digital marketing I came to its emergence and extreme growth in today’s
scenario
3 What I found in client servicing is convincing clients is bit complex as they too have complete
knowledge about the digital marketing and also explaining how Globalshala are better than
others.
4 Most of the sectors initially opt for the digital marketing channels name search engine
optimization, search engine marketing and social media marketing and later they will think about
other channels which mean these three channel high acceptance.
5 It is easier to approach a company’s if you first send them an E-mailer to related sector and
then call them in fact sometimes the company itself call having seen the E-mailer.
6 Indian customers are highly information seekers. They collect more information about quality,
price and refer customer’s experiences before purchasing a product.
7 Advertisements have high impact for creating stimulus in Indian customers. But this stimulus
will get in to action only through opinion leaders.
8 Indian consumers have high tendency to go for online purchase. They have high affinity to go
online for electronic products and apparels.
9 One of the current trends in Indian youth and young Indians are watching the T.V programs via
online portals. May be the main reason is convenience of time, they can watch programs which
they had skipped due to some reasons.

10 The same thing is happening for the newspaper also, people have more affinity towards online
news portals. Here's the reason may be they can get news updates very early; they don’t need to
wait for daily newspapers. \

11 In both of these cases, one opportunity is lost for marketer and one opportunity is emerging
for them to reach their T.G.

45
12 More than 90% of the samples have a mobile or Smartphone and laptops or PC. 96% of
samples have an internet connection is any of these gadgets, this showing the penetration of
internet in India.

13 If Globalshala take tablet, penetration in Indian is low. But it doesn’t mean that no one is
using tabs. More than 30% of samples have tablet. For brands they are getting three more
platforms to reach their T.G and engage them. 14 33% of the samples are using these gadgets
while they are with their friends, so just think about the reach. If one person noticed something
which is cool and a Globalshala some they will surely communicate to others.

15 25% of the samples are using these gadgets while watching T.V; it’s again a barrier for brands
which use TVC only. 21% of the samples are using this gadget for chatting and 16% are using
for surfing. What they are surfing? It can be about a product, local events or locations...etc.

16 In this situation, one opportunity is again losing to brands and one opportunity is emerging for
brands to reach their T.G.
17 More than 90% of samples are noticing ads, among them 35% of samples noticed ads through
online media, follo Globalshala by TVC and Newspapers.

18 48% of samples are telling they give more importance to online ads and 34 % of samples give
importance to T.V.C.

19 From the first part of this research itself, Globalshala know that customers are highly
information seeker. It may be the reason for high trust in online ads. They can search for more
information after seeing an ad or online is the only two way communication channel for
customers.

20 22% of the samples do research through their lap or PC before purchasing a product from the
retail shop and 21% do research via mobile.

46
21 Most of the Indians prefer to purchase from a retail shop only, but before going to retail shop
they will seek information about the product through an online platform. Here is actually change
happens in consumer buying journey, early times consumer belief a product only after seeing the
product in a retail shop.

22 But now Indian customers want to get conviction about a product before going to retail shop.
So from a marketers view they want to convince their customers before going to a retail shop.

23 Brands want to build a cool presence over digital platforms because the customer will do
research about the product after seeing an ad or after getting stimulated.

24 Brands are getting more touch points to reach target group in a cost effective manner.

25 How do you get information about new Products?

Samples showing that 40% of people get to know about new products through advertisements
and follow Globalshala by friends means reference group
26. Do you Collect information before purchasing the products

 Gain basic understanding of SEO, SEM, SMM, ORM, etc.

 Fulfilling each and every requirement of client is very important regardless of whether
that requirement is small or big.
 Leadership quality, it’s all about the impact you have on other people. You need to have
leaders within an organization. Leaders will deal with the customer, project, etc. as a

strengths.
 Digital marketing work is all about a team work and it always try to give best out of all.
Time management is the big management lesson I have learnt as make individual more
divert to words it work. How to do a formal communication, the way how to
communicate with each level of management to get work done.
 Every day same task, but the situations are different
 It’s not only from my experience, but also from my observation. All colleagues are doing
the same type of work, but the situation is different. Sometime they have problem with a
client, but on the next day they problems with vendors or with creative team. While
coming to me, my first month was more concentrated with pitch presentation. Industry or
clients are different or requirements of the client are different, but contents or the flow of
pitch presentations are same.
 Observation is the best teacher
 Work life balancing
