The Future of Digital Marketing

March 19, 2019March 19, 2019 by Deepak Kanakaraju

I have been in the digital marketing industry for the past 10 years. In the past 5 years, the trend of digital marketing has seen a hockey stick growth. If you check Google Trends for the popularity of the term “digital marketing”, you can see how it has grown since 2004. Anything that grows this fast, is not sustainable.

March 19, 2019March 18, 2019 by Deepak Kanakaraju

The digital economy is embedded in every corner of our lives, and it’s definitely not going anywhere anytime soon.

Entrepreneurship is a Lottery of Efforts

March 2, 2019 by Deepak Kanakaraju
