THERE IS GREAT POWER
IN GOOD DESIGN – WHETHER PRESENTED IN PRINT OR DIGITALLY.
The tone in which you communicate is of the utmost importance, and comes in more forms than ever before. Ensure your marketing material sets the right tone, and speaks to your potential or existing customers with a carefully crafted voice. Marketing without design is lifeless, and design without marketing is mute.
Many businesses have been making the switch to digital. Others remain firmly loyal to print, posing the enduring question: Print Marketing VS Digital Marketing – which is better?
Print marketing is tried and tested. We know what to expect; it’s authentic and trustworthy. But print marketing also faces accusations of being outdated and expensive. By contrast, digital is fast, accurate and cost-effective. But it’s also impersonal, less memorable and intangible; you don’t want your campaign to get lost in the ephemeral digital clutter of today’s online world.
In most cases, it really depends on the context. You’ll need different campaigns for different products, and different forms of media will be more effective at targeting different audiences. Here to help you make an informed decision, AK–DESIGNS brings you the definitive guide to print marketing vs digital marketing. Outlining the pros and cons of each strategy.
