New figures from comScore show that more than half of digital ads (54%) are never seen by consumers. It’s a colossal waste, and demonstrates the need for brands and marketers to reassess their digital marketing approach.

But there’s more to video than just creating and posting product information. Are you doing everything you can to make the most of these incredibly valuable assets?

A progressive web app, or PWA, is a website with the look and feel of, and much of the same functionality as, an installed application on a desktop PC, tablet or smartphone.

Six dos and don’ts of great partnership marketing

Partnership marketing is a lucrative channel for most brands. However, as I state in my previous Econsultancy article ‘A complete guide to partnership marketing’ – partnership marketing has in the past been simply swept under the marketing rug.
