Let's talk about those sneaky little trackers called "cookies" 🍪
Ever wonder why ads seem to follow you around the internet? While marketers might talk a big game about cookies, many of them don't fully understand how they work or the potential privacy implications 💭
We asked Will Roberts from Webbox to answer a few questions regarding 2024 updates on tracking and marketing!
Here is the first video explaining what cookies are 🕵️♂️⤵️

Is email marketing dead❓🤔
We asked Richard Wall from Spotler and this is what he said ⤵️
Email marketing remains a highly effective and widely used strategy for businesses to communicate with their audience, promote their products or services and drive sales.
While there are newer marketing channels and strategies emerging, email marketing continues to offer several advantages:
☑️ Direct communication
☑️ Personalisation
☑️ High ROI
☑️ Automation
☑️ Measurable results
☑️ Low cost
However, you need to remember to adapt email marketing strategies to evolving consumer preferences and technological advancements:
☑️ Optimising for mobile devices
☑️ Adhering to privacy regulations (GDPR, CAN-SPAM etc.)
☑️ Providing valuable content that resonates with subscribers
In summary, while email marketing may face challenges and competition from newer marketing channels, it remains a vital component of the marketing mix for many businesses due to its effectiveness and versatility.

Did you know that Digital Marketing has carbon footprint? 🌍
We had a chat with Tom Maskill - Sales & Sustainability Director at Webmart - at our last event in Sheffield and he informed us that digital marketing accounts generate 3.5% of global emissions, compared to 2.5% generated by the aviation industry 🤯🌿⤵️
Digital marketing has become an essential aspect of modern business operations, allowing companies to reach vast audiences and engage with potential customers in innovative ways.
However - like any industry - digital marketing has its #environmental impact, primarily in the form of carbon emissions resulting from energy consumption, data storage and the manufacturing of electronic devices 📱
