Digital marketing is an effective way to utilize targeting to seek out your ideal client. Just imagine–your advertising campaign engaging potential clients that already have interest in the products or services your company provides. Instead of blasting your products to an unknown group of people and hoping that someone might have some interest, you can engage with your client, be found when they search Google or Bing and meet the demand when your product or service is top-of-mind in and around the beautiful city of Vancouver, WA.

Along The
Decision-Making Journey
The basics are that we take a prospect through the different decision-making phases by positioning the product or service.
The buyer starts the journey unaware of their need. After exposure to something that cultivates intrigue comes awareness and interest, where your service meets the “why” of the potential customer. This interest leads to education, where connection, credibility, and evaluation are established. The sale happens when a decision is made for adoption of the service your business provides. This sale is followed by retention. A virtuous cycle.
Although this seems to be a clean journey, it is a bit more complicated than this in the reality, so an omnichannel marketing approach is our solution for the complexity of marketing in the real world.
