Digital engagement refers to the way customers interact with a business through
technology, such as email, social media, and websites. It is also the way individuals
participate in online content or platforms that have become integrated into their daily lives.
Therefore, digital engagement can be seen as the level of connection between a company
and its customers through online communication. Digital engagement is considered
important for companies because of the increasing number of internet users in Indonesia
each year.
There are several benefits of digital engagement. Firstly, it shows the company's
concern for its customers. By actively engaging with them through digital platforms, it
demonstrates a commitment to building a relationship. Secondly, it provides reasons why
customers should choose their product or service. Through digital engagement,
companies have the opportunity to showcase the unique features and advantages of their
offerings. This helps customers make informed decisions. Thirdly, digital engagement
provides an interesting and interactive experience for customers. This can be through
interactive websites, social media content, or engaging online campaigns. Fourthly, it
enhances customer satisfaction. By addressing their concerns and feedback promptly
through digital channels, companies can improve their overall customer experience.
Lastly, digital engagement helps increase customer loyalty. By building strong
relationships and providing value through online interactions, customers are more likely
to remain loyal and recommend the company to others.
Digital engagement can be categorized into different levels. The basic level
includes using technology to communicate with friends, play video games, or upload
photos and videos on social media. The intermediate level involves online shopping,
banking transactions, website exploration, and interacting with official websites. The
advanced level includes reading news online, participating in online discussions, and
engaging in social activities through digital platforms.
However, there are also challenges associated with digital engagement. Firstly,
the rapid advancements in technology require companies to keep up with the latest trends
and acquire the necessary technical skills. Different generations may have different levels
of proficiency in utilizing digital tools. Secondly, the lack of face-to-face interaction in
digital engagement may hinder the ability to perceive emotions accurately. Lastly, the
physical strain on the eyes and the saturation of information, often irrelevant, can
negatively affect the digital engagement experience.
In today's digital age, businesses must navigate the complex landscape of online
platforms and marketing practices. Strategic focus on ethical conduct is crucial to ensure
