No doubt 2020 will go down in the annals of history as a phenomenal year(not in a complimentary way though). It has completely overturned the usual ways of life, and digital agencies can’t help but wonder what this all means for the digital space.
The Coronavirus pandemic seeped and trickled slowly into our world before transforming into a full-blown avalanche. And like an avalanche, it destroyed a lot in its path.
In order to remain in business, it becomes very necessary for digital agencies to adapt and think up solutions. As the virus continues to display tiring and surprising resilience, we can only wonder what it means for the world of digital.
Since the evolution of digital agencies, they have been characterized by a high level of competition and endless demands.
Now with the multidimensional changes the coronavirus has spread all over the world, digital agencies are being compelled to reorganize in order to tackle the new set of challenges, but there are also promising and exciting prospects for them.
Digital agencies now need to carve out fresh strategies and service offerings to keep up with multiple virtual demands from clients. So what are the ways in which staying afloat is possible?
Competitive Thinking
Since the earliest years of the digital world, it has always been steep in competition. With rapid digital globalization, this trait has been uplifted. Since relevance is a core and intrinsic part of any business, digital agencies are under intense pressure to be at the top of emerging technology.
Experts at DubSEO, predict a major shift in the post covid19 era. Many businesses would prefer to work with agencies closer to home. Uncertainty has birthed insecurities and now businesses want security more than anything else. At DubSEO, we are expanding our energies to building stronger working relationships with local businesses. This move has dual benefits
- Boosting agency capacities and more trust
- Creating a dedicated clientele
By sourcing for local clients, agencies have the edge over their competitors. Agencies need to prove their unique value to clients consistently. From one-stop shops to specialist services, this is crucial and unavoidable for all agencies.
In the new phase of emerging technology, zero-code web development will have a huge impact on the digital Industry. Agencies would come to the realization that not coding everything from scratch will be beneficial because it frees up time and energy.
Know Your Brand
In a time of such unprecedented change, brand identity is integral in creating a strong and recognizable brand. With the competition now as stiff as never before, and technology evolving at a super-fast rate, many digital agencies are getting drowned in the background.
However, those agencies that clearly define product offerings and distinguish themselves fare better than others.
Define your brand. Is it a specialist service? One-stop-shop? Understanding this will bring about effective positioning that will draw your clients to you.
DubSEO, for instance, is a specialist agency that offers top-notch SEO services and ensures your business ranks high in Google searches. We are a productive SEO company, and a highly professional one too. Top-level transparency is what you get with your clients if you are a defined brand.
Identify Development Opportunities
Yes, it’s true that clients and agencies are brought together by a mutual need and solution provision. However, multiple business opportunities open up for agencies with integrated portfolios of professional digital services. This is in line with the popular trend to see all platforms and marketing channels become inextricable.
Being able to offer surplus services to clients stops them from hopping from one agency to another, and stick with you. Of course, this boosts profit margins.
If you are still unsure about what kind of services your agency should offer, remember that when your product offerings are influenced and developed by what clients prioritize, then you are making strategic business sense. Continuously remain aware of what clients need, and what will stand the test of time.
For instance, email marketing is projected to plummet, while web design and SEO services are projected to skyrocket. Of course, this means that at DubSEO, we will continue to retain our spot as a top UK SEO company.
Finally, Level Up
The rapid and accelerated growth of digital agencies, and its fast-paced and energetic nature is due to how fast new technologies are developed and quickly ingrained into the market.
Businesses are racing hard to remain ahead of the curve, but in truth, only specific businesses who adopt new and innovative marketing strategies and digital agencies who have ingenious ways of leverage will be beneficiaries.
