![]() |
Social networking known as digital medial reaching broader audience. |
I strongly agree, traditional media is effective in the world of digital media , reason being is that technology has taken over our world this includes people living in the modern life using , Smart phones , Digital books , website to access information , Download Apps, music, movie, videos, Blogs, just to name a few. To support my statement due to my research it is proven that businesses use digital media it’s known as Digital Marketing rather than traditional media in order to market their business since many people have access to information without learning it , it is cheap , the market can reach a large number of audience in a short period of time .

what used to be referred as old media( Traditional media) many people no longer rely on it. |
Digital media everyone has access to it. In terms like these it’s a bonus to business and stakeholders both parties benefit the business gets their message across (advertising) and targets a lot of people in a short period of time ,clients save money and time by shopping online , get information about the product, people receive fresh information, people can share their own opinion by voicing out on social media e.g. Blogs .business get to hire less people because they rely on technology. E.g. they preventing door–to-door advertising and promotions. People can engage themselves on social media with confidence protecting their identity. e.g. using passwords & usernames. Share their talent on social media. Technology helps the market improve due to interacting with customers using social media it’s part of the business strategy .e.g. people can view their thoughts about the brand it also build relationships with clients much easier in a faster pace.
Traditional media has it’s own pros and cons but people no longer rely on it. As you know Advertising in the media industry it’s all about keeping up with time in order to attract your suitable stakeholders and using the suitable media. Well traditional media it takes time to gather information ,this includes editing , photography , advertising ,interviewing people , printing & publishing it can be daily or monthly e.g. in order for a newspaper & magazines to run smoothly we need skilled professionals to do the job, but it is a long process one of the disadvantages are since people have access to information video , music , movie shops slowly shut down because many people have access to information by downloading.
