Digital Marketing via Digital Media Campaigns / Programmatic
This process typically involves digital media buying to purchase ad inventory. These ads can be display (banner or responsive), text or video ads. Ads are usually purchased through 3rd party networks (of which we also run one in South Africa).
Digital Marketing for Direct Referrals
Direct referrals are not typically something you plan specific digital campaigns for. You will traditionally be running above the line campaigns offline to generate awareness of your digital properties and receive visitors online as a result.
