Fail: Study Reveals Lack of Confidence in Digital Marketing - O’Connor Marketing Investigates
(PRWEB) January 07, 2015 -- With digital marketing spending expected to reach a record $137.53 billion by the end of 2014 – a number that is a 15% increase on 2013, and a quarter of all paid media spending worldwide – a recent survey of marketers indicates that the only thing growing faster than digital marketing investment is the marketer’s uncertainty about what they’re getting for their money.
O’Connor Marketing looked into the recent study, conducted by Domus Inc. (titled 'Study Reveals Widespread Digital Dysfunction Among Marketers' and published on June 10, 2014 by MarketWired) and was shocked to find that 64% of marketers said that their companies suffer from “digital dysfunction.” Specific areas of concern highlighted in the study included:
• 91% of marketers surveyed believe their companies need better methods to measure the business impact of digital marketing and social media.
• 84% of marketers surveyed said their companies need to achieve more with their digital marketing, including increasing a return on investment from social media.

“It’s important that results can be clearly reported, that is why companies hire us to run direct marketing campaigns; we offer tangible results,” states O’Connor Marketing’s Managing Director, Ronan O’Connor. “That is not to say that digital marketing can’t deliver but it is much more complex and difficult to prove exactly which part of the marketing mix is eventuating in a sale,” adds Mr O’Connor.
O’Connor Marketing believes that the concern surrounding digital marketing could lead to more people turning to the use of direct marketing.
