It’s been a tough two years working from home and creating marketing strategies that would absolutely kill it amidst a global pandemic. But now as the situation eases (we’re hoping), us marketers are setting benchmarks for the new year, including goals that make sure our email marketing strategies offer our audiences just what they need, while creating the right ROI for our clients.

When Marketing Eye first started its internship program, it was simply a case of so many people requesting internships and the need for young marketers to learn about their chosen field within a professional setting.

In Australia, 88% of companies are considered as small businesses. If your business doesn't have a digital presence, then you are not exciting the market as nowadays much of our world is online.

You may be involved in creating marketing strategies, marketing services, marketing consulting, but you suck. Maybe you don’t suck but you're scared of sucking, you fear underperforming as a small or large business marketer and that's perfectly fine.

Heights, darkness, bugs, SOCIALISING are amongst the most common fears or phobias people have but you know what is missing from that list of common fears? The fear of FAILING! Why aren’t there more marketing agencies, more millionaire marketers, why aren’t you a good marketer?

Social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, or Snapchat are initially created for sharing memories and connecting families and friends. It has now transformed into a source of entertainment, news, and commercial opportunities. Towards the end of 2021, there were 4.55 billion people who are active on social media. Facebook is the most prominent social networking site, but is that still true in 2022? Facebook interaction on organic content has been on an all-time low, at approximately 2%. Some users have abandoned Facebook and moved to other platforms. Do you think Facebook is a dying Marketing Channel? 

After just completing my first year of university studying media and communications, I didn’t know the first thing about what the world of marketing involved. Having only ever taken two advertising classes, I knew almost nothing about what a marketing firm did let alone how they operated in the industry. That was until I found myself scrolling through Indeed.com, trying to find a way to fill in my time over the next three months. At a time when every second person was trying to find a job or internship, restless after the abundance of lockdowns we endured in 2021, every opportunity I was either turned down or was one in 500 applicants. Marketing Eye was no different, an application I thought I would never hear back from. Or so that’s what I thought. 12 weeks later I am left to reflect on my time working as a Marketing Eye Intern learning from and working alongside a team of dedicated, passionate, and hardworking marketing executives.

When you start out in marketing, you always think the career path will be easy, fun and a bit on the glamorous side. Then when you start, you realize that it isn't easy, fun is for Friday's and there is no glamour in organizing an event even if it is for your favorite fashion brand.

Many don't start in the mail room or doing photocopying anymore, but at an entry level there is plenty of mundane tasks that can often bury our enthusiasm for the career that you are by this point indebted to through your university degree.

While B2B and B2C take different approaches to achieve their business goals, one thing they have in common is that whether it's businesses or end customers, they are both communicating with people. People socialize, and online social media platforms allow them to get connected without time and geography constraints. As is known to all, 2 years of the pandemic has entirely changed the world, more specifically, the way we live, and how things function have gone more digital. Statistics show, by 2025 the number of American online shoppers is expected to reach 291.2 million, which translates into about 88% of the U.S. population. 

B2B social media marketing in this case sees no exception. B2B's buying journey doesn’t end after visiting the website and checking the price. Moreover, 84% of B2B executives claim that they use social media to make their purchase decisions while 72% of B2B buyers research products on social media. In 2022, the demand for B2B companies to craft their social media marketing is growing higher than ever. Putting your brands out there and propelling the transitions can promise your businesses a more recognized and engaged future.
