EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
13
The following report is pursued as a part of PGDM curriculum at Universal Business
School, Mumbai. It is undertaken as an internship at The Digital Fellow under the title, ‘Digital
Marketing – Learning and Implementation of best practices.’ The project is done under expert
supervision and guidance of Prof. Savio Saldhana (College SIP Guide) and Mr. Arindam Bose
(Company Guide). The project is about the work and learning I learned in the company during my
two-month internship.
I was hired as a Digital Marketing Intern at The Digital Fellow. I was able to study and practise a
lot of things that I didn't know before. They believe in both the learning and working processes. Mr.
Subhobroto Chakroborty, the founder, and Mr. Arindam Bose, my company's mentor, made me
feel as if I were in a classroom learning Digital Marketing. Initially, they gave me an overview of the
company, what they do, and how they differ from other companies in the same industry in terms of
competitive advantage. The procedure and services were explained to us, and they were there to
answer any questions or concerns we had. They gave us more than enough time to learn about the
company, its services, its processes, and its culture. During my internship, I learnt and worked on a
variety of projects.
The following are some of the most main roles that I can think of:
In addition, I improved my presentation skills. I got into a lot of meetings and sessions where
corporate employees questioned us before handing us any work and were willing to listen to our
concerns. At first, I did Digital Brand Audit of Hair oil industry(11company). Their I worked on
Content audit, Digital Assets Audit, SEO audit. I mostly worked on projects for one company. The
TMT 600 manufacturer company. According to The Digital Fellow's policies, I am not permitted to
reveal the name of the companies. I was required to do some research (website and social media) on
the company and its competitors, also did persona research as part of the project.
The primary goal of the study was to learn what the competitors were doing, how some of them
were doing things better than the company, and where the company fell short. Possible remedies
were to be discovered and implemented following discussion with supervisors and clients as a result
of this analysis. I enjoyed the company's culture, flexible working hours, supervision and support,
new things to learn every day, and personal help such as academics and skill development. Working
with The Digital Fellow was a fantastic experience and opportunity for me.

Part A: Industry Profile
15
All marketing efforts that use the internet or online-based digital technology or devices
are classified as digital marketing. It is a strategy and process for establishing a connection
between marketers and their target audiences using digital channels. There are many digital
channels that attract audiences and satisfy the conversion funnel's goals in a unique way.
1. Social Media: The practice of developing and posting content related to a brand,
products, and services on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram,
Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and YouTube are known as social media marketing. The
content can take the shape of articles, photographs, or videos in order to boost
audience engagement and reach in order to generate sales. Increased traffic,
communication, brand awareness, lead nurturing, and trust are all benefits of using
social media.
16
5. Organic Marketing: The organic marketing channel refers to a company's acquisition
of consumers or potential customers over time through a natural process. Natural
process refers to marketing using non-paid methods such as direct marketing, search
engines, blogs, and other non-paid tools and methods. The organic marketing channel
is mostly used to spread brand recognition. Organic Marketing Channel's objective is
to educate customers, raise awareness, set goals, develop strategies, and establish a
brand.
6. Pay-per Click: It's a marketing approach in which the advertiser or marketer pays the
publisher for each advertisement click. This method is employed to increase traffic to
digital sites. It's like paying for website hits rather than gaining them organically. One
of the most well-known examples of PPC marketing is Google Ads.

Traditional marketing is not the same as digital marketing. The key distinction in delivering
marketing messages to the audience in both marketing ideas is the medium chosen.
Newspapers, television, and magazines are examples of traditional marketing media, whereas
social media and websites are examples of digital marketing media. The performance of the
process or media is not measured in traditional marketing. Unlike traditional marketing
methods, digital marketing allows marketers to see real-time results. Despite the benefits of
digital marketing, conventional marketing remains popular due to its long-term impact on the
audience.
There are numerous fundamental advantages to digital marketing that make it more efficient
and effective than traditional marketing.
(Source: rowdymarketer.com)
The expansion of digital marketing in India has been aided by a number of factors. People
have tried Digital Marketing because it is an effective and efficient medium, and they have
had a positive experience. People do not have time to go shopping or make purchases in
person, therefore they must adapt to online marketing.
18
Importance of Digital Marketing
The following are some of the most important features of digital marketing:
Can target the segmented audience: We can reach our consumers more effectively
with digital marketing than we can with traditional means. We can leverage
appropriate public information to affect digital marketing strategies by inserting it.
This makes it easier for us to meet the proper folks.
Manage competition and their actions: Digital Marketing is already being used by
competition. As a result, digital marketing techniques are critical for a marketer to
employ. To stay ahead of the competition, one must do exactly what the competition
is doing, and more of it. If disregarded, one can easily slip behind the competition. If a
company or a brand does not spend in digital marketing, its competitors will receive
and earn the leads that could be generated by that company or brand. The audience
will be unfamiliar with the company and will quickly move on to a competitor.
Reaching to the people where they are more engaged: People are spending more
time online as the Internet and its uses become more popular. The internet is used by
more than 7.7 billion individuals around the world. Searching the web, keeping up
with social media, and making purchases online are all becoming more common.
Consumers are online, which emphasizes the need of digital marketing. To achieve
the best outcomes, every organisation and brand must expand their online presence.
The reach can be expanded through digital marketing, which leads to increased sales
and profits.
Track and refine the campaigns to better results: Because digital marketing is so
important, we can quickly track and manage your activities. we want to know if your
campaigns are working before, we invest time and money in them. Digital marketing
makes monitoring our campaigns simple, allowing us to adapt and achieve better
results.
19
Limitations of Digital Marketing
Competition: Even if we can reach a global digital marketing audience, we'll still
face global competition. It can be a difficulty to stand out among rivals and attract
attention from the many online consumer-oriented posts.
Time Taking: It can take a long time to execute tasks like optimising online
advertising campaigns and developing marketing content. It's critical to track your
progress in order to ensure a positive return on investment.
Negative feedbacks: Through social media and website analysis, any unfavourable
reviews or criticism of our brand may be made available to our audience. It might be
challenging to provide effective customer service over the internet. Negative
comments or a failure to respond appropriately might affect our brand's image.
Insecure and privacy issues: The acquisition and use of customer data for digital
marketing purposes is subject to a number of legal considerations. Make sure to
follow all applicable privacy and data security rules.

COMPETITORS PROFILE
The Digital Fellow has no competitor in the market because it is a single company that is a
agency as well as consultancy firm. Difference between agencies and consultancies:
3. The team
Agencies have a raft of positions within their company, and thus hierarchies. Clients
will be working with different individuals of varying degrees of experience and
seniority. To be efficient in an agency business model, they must drive performance.
That means they do have relatively stringent procedures to which the consumer may
unwittingly adhere. To clients who need stuff yesterday, the bureaucracy and
inflexibility that this can bring can be very frustrating! Your primary point of contact
with a consultancy is usually the company itself. There is typically no corporate
structure behind them to deal with. The solutions aim to be customized to the needs
and business problem of the client and there are no lengthy procedures to pursue. So,
speed and performance are rarely a problem. There is a clear consequence of this
structuring; for a company you pay more (per hour) (senior staff, tailor-made
approaches) than you would for an agency's services (mixed experience ratios,
sausage machine approach). The Digital Fellow supports and works with certain
companies or businesses who are unable to manage major multinational consulting
firms. The Digital Fellow 's services contribute to ultimate company goals such as
growth, market share and profitability.
29
Awards, Achievements and Recognition
There have been no awards given to the company because it is a start-up that was created
in 2017. Despite the fact that the firm works well in the market, it is still lacking in prizes and
plaudits, which the brand and its CEO will undoubtedly obtain as a result of their tireless
efforts.
30
PART - B
31
Work flow model
When a project is allocated to the TDF, the client briefs the TDF on their objectives and
needs, and the TDF advises them on what they can do in addition to what they are thinking
and how modifications will benefit the client. Then proper training is provided to interns on
various tasks and roles that they must perform while performing their work, and interns must
update their working status on a regular basis. If interns encounter any difficulties, proper
sessions are conducted for them so that they can get the most out of those sessions and also
implement those things in their work.
32
PESTLE ANALYSIS

and successfully. The PESTLE analysis is the most extensively used method for analysing the
external business environment. Political, Economic, Social, and Technological study are all
represented by bug examination. It also takes into account legal and environmental factors.
The PESTEL provides incredible insight into working difficulties. Other than cantered
forces, the Digital Fellow will be forced to look in full-scale. For instance, an industry with a
good progress record may be advantageous, but it will be useless to The Digital Fellow if it is
managed in a shaky political environment.

35
Damage control of terrible audits or objections on social media or advanced stage is
an immense assignment and can even lead to the end of organizations.
Data Analysis is yet an exceptionally large concern and not many individuals are
proficient in it as very few can comprehend what information really says

The Digital Fellow's challenges, as well as potential solutions
There are an increasing number of obstacles that everyone appears to encounter at some
point during their digital marketing career. There's no point in wasting additional effort on
bad internet marketing. From dealing with a limited budget to floundering on social media,
here are the four most common digital marketing difficulties, along with the best answers for
each.
Marketing begins with first observing the contenders and the subsequent advance is to
comprehend their moves and work as indicated by the patterns. The greater part of the
organizations can't comprehend the client business and that viability of planning the Target
Audience and Buyer Persona assumes an indispensable job in this business. You can utilize
the accessible purchaser persona layouts and free assets. If we can't comprehend Target
Audience and Buyer Persona, at that point there is no reason for saying that we are doing
Digital Marketing.
Solution: Along these lines, the as a matter of first importance step is to invest some
energy and make them meetings to generate new ideas with customers which will help in
understanding their business. These days Agencies don't meet customers regularly and
attempt to complete everything over a call or skype. Which will spare time and vitality
however you may endure with low relationship in future. Continuously the organizations
should attempt to have a Monthly Review Meeting to adjust the whole procedure in a
superior manner. Have an objective set up in the association and continue refreshing the
customers on everyday premise to have a drawing in relationship. Try not to hold up till the
end or beginning of the month to give another thought. Simply follow the idea of "Do it Now,
or Never"
2. Mordern trend
Trends is again the best and most exceedingly awful piece of Digital Marketing. The
offices endure a great deal as whom to follow and what to execute. There are part numerous
forthcoming patterns which is been discharged via Search Engines or Social Media Channels.
It's getting hard to adapt up to the patterns and actualizing those again needs a ton of Man
Hours which is the misrepresents on the Agency. The organizations are compelled to embrace
to the patterns to partake in the race. Furthermore, it likewise goes about as an incentive to 41
the Business. If he needs to include a worth, he can't charge his customer. That is the place
we endure in expanding our works and get paid low.
Solutions: The Agencies ought to follow the top influencers and attempt to actualize
whichever can be incorporated as a bundle and be straightforward with client and send them a
ready this is the up and coming pattern and what are the preferences in following. Let them
choose whether they must extemporize their business or what is there focus on the equivalent.
In this way, this takes care of the office issue in working more for less expense.
37
3. Communication Gap
As the whole procedure of Digital Marketing like Search Engine Optimization, Social
Media Marketing are continuous procedures. It would require a few endorsements from the
customer to distribute on a brand page. That is the test as customers would be occupied,
would get postponed endorsements and have set up a best channel to get endorsements from
them. At the point when we meet, they continue saying that on the off chance that you give us
a tough situation regarding pressure we would do it yet when we start, they feel baffled. That
is the situation, however, can't accuse them, however. On the off chance that we need to
embrace to the pattern we may get the endorsement after the pattern terminates.
Solution: The most ideal route is to have an update and illuminate them the difficult that
may happen in coming days. Continuously converse with customers in numbers then just they
would have the option to pay attention to it. Continuously at whatever point you send an
update don't send as Any Updates and all rather you can drop a WhatsApp message or email
expressing that "Sir we are shy of posts and there are 10,000 fans hanging tight for an update
from your image in this way, if you don't mind think concerning whether to make them pause
or would you be able to favour us quicker so as to capitalize on it."
Creating leads online is simple and you may not wind up producing new leads. As a
result of the client conduct. One client enquires 20 organizations, takes citations, settle with
one organization. It's undeniable however and that is not the one-of-a-kind idea which has
shown up in the Market. This will demotivate the office since individuals call before
breakfast and ask the citation inside 30 mins. Where there is a test to have an identification of
convenient conveyance, exceptionally responsive from the client yet often thinking about this
we will race to give a citation by doing insignificant examination which will influence the
organization. Since being sure that we may back this undertaking is extremely troublesome.
Presently it's where the endeavours are our own, yet we wouldn't have a clue about the
outcomes since we are rivalling 20 organizations. What dream they begin looking at the cost
42 and centre capabilities? Clients begin arranging where we wind up concurring for lower
cost for more work.
Solution: Require some serious energy in breaking down and afterward offer the citation
on the grounds that to be progressively explicit we have such an involvement with this, that
we wind up working more for less citation. Let them request in 30 mins unmistakably state
them it is beyond the realm of imagination and take as much time as is needed to cite. Be
extremely clear in your expectations and please feature that it will be month to month/yearly
bundle else customers end up in requesting you month to month cost for yearly bundle J If
you need to be exceptionally responsive in offering the citation then you have to have a gauge
quote prepared for all sort of enterprises which will help in limited statement process.
5. Retention of Customers
Sponsorship the activities are anything but difficult to support and scale is the significant
test. Each organization has an issue in offering the client driven approach or fulfil the client.
Continuously he winds up working increasingly more so as to fulfil them. The entirety of the
customers anticipates results. In a range of one month they would interest for leads.
38
Regardless of whether you guarantee or not in your expectations you have to take a shot at
prompts make them sure about your administration. These days creating leads from
Facebook, AdWords or from any of the social channels the lead quality is consistently
normal. Furthermore, some would fill in the structure on presentation page, yet they wouldn't
react. This causes them to negatively affect the battle results.
Solutions: Try not to guarantee however work for lead age in the back end. Since once
you have educated them then you may need to give the leads on everyday premise. It's
smarter to resemble Amazon Shipping administrations – They state it might take 7 days yet
will convey in 3 days. It will resemble under guarantee and over conveyance. In this way, it's
smarter to under guarantee than to get into pointless weights. The subsequent tip is to support
the leads or on the off chance that you have a selling group ask them to simply confirm the
leads which will help in staying sure regardless of whether they don't utter a word worked
out. You can have an informational with you that these numerous customers were intrigued.

Objective of the study
Research Methodology
The questionnaire made was separated into two parts. Part one consisted of private
inquiries to obtain the demographics of the participants. Part two asked questions regarding
the study. The questionnaire was prepared in such a form that each one of the participants can
find the questions appropriate and don't face any trouble in understanding the question. The
questionnaire was mainly consisting of factors affecting customer’s buying behaviour and
buying habit while making the purchase decision. Tried to understand different viewpoints of
purchases as compared to all or any of the brands available. This was a crisp and short survey
form but almost contained all the small print about the buyer's buying habit and behaviour.

study. It allows researchers to set research methods that are most appropriate for the
subject matter and frame the research study accordingly. An impactful research design
normally forms a minimum bias in data and increases trust within the correctness of
collected data. it's broadly classified into three types:
Causal Research Design
44
Descriptive Research Design
Exploratory Research Design
This research was conducted by using a Descriptive Research Design. during a
descriptive design, a researcher is solely curious about describing things or cases under
their research study. it's a theory-based design method that's created by gathering,
analysing, and presenting collected data. this enables a researcher to supply insights into
the why and the way of research. Descriptive design helps to better comprehend
the necessity for the research. If the statement isn't clear, we'll conduct exploratory
research.

Conclusion and Observation
From the research and finding it can be concluded that the now a day’s consumer are
more educated and they are using to search for information about product before taking any
buying decision. If we put the relevant information online regarding the product and its
specification and the USP’s then it will gain the more competitive advantage against
particular competitor.
And also, majority of consumer skip the advertainment as soon as they see it, which
signifies that advertisement is not engaging enough or they are not the targeted consumer.
The situation will definitely impact the ROI.
At special offer and discount people can choose different brand against their preferred
brand, which means the consumer are price conscious, as soon as they see lower, they don’t
hesitate buy the product. In such situation many companies can be benefited and they can sell
out their old stock and save themselves from making loss.

LEARNING
EXPERIENCES
54
I was hired as a Digital Marketing Intern at The Digital Fellow. I was able to study and practise a
lot of things that I didn't know before. They believe in both the learning and working processes
During my internship, I learnt and worked on a variety of projects.
The following are some of the most main roles that I can think of:
In addition, I improved my presentation skills. I got into a lot of meetings and sessions where
corporate employees questioned us before handing us any work and were willing to listen to our
concerns. At first, I did Digital Brand Audit of Hair oil industry(11company). Their I worked on
Content audit, Digital Assets Audit, SEO audit. I mostly worked on projects for one company. The
TMT 600 manufacturer company. According to The Digital Fellow's policies, I am not permitted to
reveal the name of the companies. I was required to do some research (website and social media) on
the company and its competitors, also did persona research as part of the project.
The primary goal of the study was to learn what the competitors were doing, how some of them
were doing things better than the company, and where the company fell short. Possible remedies
were to be discovered and implemented following discussion with supervisors and clients as a result
of this analysis. I enjoyed the company's culture, flexible working hours, supervision and support,
new things to learn every day, and personal help such as academics and skill development. Working
with The Digital Fellow was a fantastic experience and opportunity for me.
