Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

1.Introduction

In today's dynamic digital landscape, the power of effective online engagement and digital
marketing strategies cannot be overstated. This report delves into the design,
implementation, and execution of these vital strategies for Music Mode Studio, a prominent
establishment in the vibrant music scene of Mumbai, India. Music Mode Studio, which
serves as a creative hub for musical talent, is home to the two unique but equally outstanding
bands Soul Yatra and Filmytronix. As a digital marketing assistant, it is my goal to steer
them in the direction of improving their online visibility and amplifying their voices. This
research examines the complicated process of enhancing brand recognition, boosting brand
engagement, and proactively interacting with our target market through cutting-edge digital
marketing strategies.

1.1 Brand Awareness:

Over the years, Music Mode Studio in Mumbai has earned a reputation for producing music
of the highest calibre. However, in this digital age, it is crucial to make sure that this legacy
resonates not only with the neighborhood but also with the entire internet. The goal of
effective digital marketing techniques is to increase and broaden brand recognition. By
constructing gripping stories, revealing behind-the-scenes details, and showing musical
prowess. The goal of Music Mode Studio is to become a well-known and significant player
in the music business.

Brand awareness is a marketing word that describes how well consumers can identify and
recall a specific brand, business, and its goods and services. It displays the degree of
familiarity and recognition a brand has with its intended market. Businesses benefit from
strong brand recognition because it can boost customer loyalty, consideration, and trust.

Creating brand recognition through digital marketing is a systematic way to establish


company's presence and identity online. It entails utilizing a variety of digital platforms and
strategies to raise brand awareness and familiarity among the target audience. Brand
awareness can be attained through digital marketing in the following ways:

Maithili Ambavane 1
Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

1. Social media marketing: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn are all effective
social media sites for spreading brand awareness. To attract potential customers, it is
necessary to produce and distribute interesting content, engage with the audience,
and launch targeted advertising campaigns.
2. Content marketing: Content marketing entails producing worthwhile and pertinent
information that appeals to target audience, such as blog posts, videos, infographics,
and podcasts. The brand can become recognized as a leader in the sector by
continuously putting out high-quality content, which will also keep audience
interested.
3. Search Engine Optimization (SEO): Increasing online presence requires optimizing
website and content for search engines. More consumers are likely to see the brand
when they search for relevant keywords when website ranks higher in search engine
results pages.
4. Influencer marketing: Working with influencers in niche who have a sizable
following will help expose the business to more people. Influencers can engage their
loyal followings by really promoting goods or services to them.
5. Online Advertising: Target demographics and interests with paid advertising
campaigns on websites like Google Ads, Facebook Ads, and Instagram Ads. The
brand message will be sent to the appropriate audience with the help of precise
targeting.
6. Remarketing: Users who have previously interacted with the website or digital
content are the focus of remarketing campaigns. It pushes people to think of company
again or do a particular action, like completing a purchase, by reminding them of it.
7. Social networking Advertising: Posting advertisements on social networking sites
enables to increase brand awareness, connect with fresh audiences, and interact with
users who might not have otherwise come across the business.
8. Online PR and Influencer Relations: Connecting with online influencers and media
sources can help to get press coverage and endorsements, which will broaden the
appeal and recognition of the business.
9. Interactivity and Engagement: Using comments, direct messaging, and live
streaming to interact with the audience can improve brand recognition and develop

Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

a feeling of community. Engaging with customers fosters a feeling of intimacy with


brand.
10. Analytics and Measurement: Use data and analytics technologies to continuously
track and examine digital marketing initiatives. As a result, we can evaluate the
success of efforts, make data-driven decisions, and adjust strategy for the greatest
possible impact.

Creating a consistent brand identity, knowing target market, and constantly providing
helpful information and experiences across a variety of online channels are all necessary for
effective brand awareness through digital marketing. By doing so, one can create a strong
online presence, foster customer loyalty, and ensure that the brand is top-of-mind when
potential customers are ready to make a purchase decision.

1.2 Brand Engagement:

Engagement is the lifeblood of any digital marketing strategy. It's important to build real
connections rather than only gaining followers. In order to do this, we will plan how to
communicate with our audience in a real way. In order to build a community of devoted
followers, it will be essential to provide engaging content, have interactive live sessions, and
respond to audience input. We want people who are only passive observers of the Music
Mode Studio adventure to become active participants in it through the power of compelling
storytelling. SEMrush, Google Ads, and social media platforms are used to assess
engagement on the digital platform.

Sharing on social media – Measuring social media shares is crucial since it reveals how
much the audience is interacting with the content. It describes the process of publishing or
reposting content on a social networking site so that friends, followers, or the public can
view it and engage with it. Users can share stuff, express their ideas and opinions, interact
with others, and participate in online discussions via sharing.

Depending on the privacy settings, when one share something on social media, it often
becomes accessible to the network or a wider public. Following that, others can engage with
the published material by like, commenting, spreading it further, or taking other appropriate
actions like sharing in their own networks or retweeting (on Twitter).

Maithili Ambavane 3
Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

Sharing on social media serves various purposes, including:

1. Communication: Communicate with the network, friends, or followers by sharing


personal updates, news, or information.

2. Promotion of Content: Users, companies, and organizations frequently post content to


advertise their goods, services, occasions, or causes.

3. Interaction: Sharing content can spark conversations, arguments, and interactions with
people who share interests.

4. Information Dissemination: Sharing news stories, instructional materials, or significant


information promotes awareness and knowledge.

5. Amplification: Work can be made more visible and impactful by reaching a wider
audience when it is shared by others.

6. Expression: Using words, photographs, or other multimedia to share on social media is a


great method to express thoughts, emotions, and creativity.

The specific features and capabilities of sharing may vary between social media platforms,
but the core concept remains consistent: sharing content with others in the digital realm.

"Clicks" and "viewing time" are important metrics used in web analytics to measure user
engagement and behavior on a website.

Clicks: Clicks refer to the instances when a user interacts with a link, button, or element on
a website by pressing their mouse button or tapping on a touchscreen device. To identify
whether links or other web page components are drawing users' attention and sending them
to other areas of the website or other sources, clicks are frequently tracked. Common clicks
include those made on call-to-action buttons, hyperlinks, and product links in navigation
menus. Understanding user navigation patterns and the efficiency of their design and content
is made possible for website owners by tracking clicks.

Viewing Time: Viewing time, commonly referred to as "time on page" or "dwell time," is
the period a user actively interacts with a particular webpage or piece of website content.

Maithili Ambavane 4
Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

Usually, it is expressed in seconds or minutes. The length of time visitors spends on a page
before moving on to another or abandoning the website is revealed by viewing time. Shorter
viewing periods might imply that viewers are fast leaving the page, whilst longer viewing
times might signal that consumers find the information important or interesting. Website
operators can determine which pages or content are retaining users' interest and which may
need improvement by analyzing viewing time.

Clicks and viewing time are both crucial measures for comprehending user behavior,
enhancing the design and content of websites, and enhancing user experience. To acquire a
thorough picture of website performance and user engagement, they are frequently utilized
in conjunction with other web analytics data.

Reaching the Target Audience:

Finding the correct audience in the huge digital world can be as difficult as venturing into
uncharted territory. It is crucial to comprehend the specific demographics, tastes, and online
behaviors of the target audience. To carefully target the people who are most likely to
connect with advertising and content, strategies will make use of data analytics and audience
insights. We will make sure that our words reach the ears and hearts of the people who matter
most by strategically utilizing social media platforms, SEO, and targeted advertising.

In-depth analysis of these tactics is provided in this research, which also looks at the digital
marketing strategy that will raise the profile of Filmytronix, Music Mode Studio, and Soul
Yatra online. We strive to harmonies the digital and musical spheres, generating a resonance
that transcends boundaries and fascinates the entire world. To do this, we must master the
art of brand recognition, cultivate brand engagement, and strategically reach our target
audience.

1.3 2022 Revenue Distribution Analysis of the Indian Music Industry by Segment

By 2022, the digital sector had surpassed most of the Indian music market and was
responsible for generating 87 percent of the market's income. The physical segment's share
fell to zero at the same time, and synchronization and performance rights collectively made
up 12% of revenue shares. This abrupt change occurred over the course of a single year.

Fig.1.1 Source: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1154075/india-music-revenue-share-by-source/

Dominance of the Digital Segment: In 2022, the Indian music industry's Digital segment
outperformed all others in terms of revenue generation. Streaming services, downloads, and
online music purchases all earned more money than physical music sales, live performances,
and synchronization (the licensing of music for usage across numerous media).

Share of the digital segment: In 2022, the Indian music industry produced an astonishing 87
percent of its entire revenue from the digital sector. This domination reflects the rise in
popularity and use of music on digital platforms, which is being fueled by the expansion of
streaming services and easier access to the internet.

Decline of the tangible Segment: In contrast, sales of tangible music, such as CDs and
albums, saw a significant drop in their revenue share. The segment's share significantly
decreased, illustrating a declining interest in physical music formats.

Synchronization and Performance Rights: Together, synchronization (the licensing of music


for use in various media, including films, advertisements, and TV shows) and performance
rights (the royalties paid for public performances of music) only made up 12% of the

Maithili Ambavane 6
Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

industry's total revenue. This shows that even while these sectors are still important to the
industry's revenue, they make up a lesser portion of it than the digital segment.

Rapid Transformation: The rapidity at which this change took place is what stands out most
about it. The domination of the digital segment and the fall of the physical segment in just
one year represented a huge and dramatic change in the industry's revenue structure.

Changes in consumer preferences, the practicality of digital music streaming, the increasing
use of cellphones, and the accessibility of music through online platforms are all likely
contributors to this trend. This change underlines how crucial it is for the music business to
innovate and adapt to survive in a rapidly changing digital environment.

By 2022, the digital sector had surpassed most of the Indian music market and was
responsible for generating 87 percent of the market's income. The physical segment's share
fell to zero at the same time, and synchronization and performance rights collectively made
up 12% of revenue shares. This abrupt change occurred over the course of a single year.

This has led us across the worlds of brand awareness, digital marketing, and the changes that
the Indian music industry will experience in 2022. On the journey, we looked at the role that
digital marketing tactics have in building brand recognition. A major change in the revenue
structure of the music business was also apparent.

Starting with the idea of brand awareness, it was determined that this extends beyond logos
and taglines and includes the level of audience recognition a brand has. This applies to
musicians, record labels, concert venues, music festivals, and streaming services.

This revealed more about the dynamic field of digital marketing, which includes data
analytics, influencer marketing, email campaigns, social media, and SEO. These techniques
and tools make it easier to create engaging brand tales and long-lasting relationships with
audiences.

The adventure, however, went beyond digital marketing into the Indian music industry,
where a major change in revenue distribution was noticed. The digital section quickly
overtook the physical segment and even the synchronization and performance rights
segments, taking a significant 87 percent of the industry's revenue within a year.

Maithili Ambavane 7
Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

The reduction in physical music sales is evidence of shifting consumer habits brought on by
the accessibility and convenience of digital platforms. While performance and
synchronization rights still contribute to industry revenue, their diminished percentage
reflects shifting revenue sources.

This sheds light on the interplay between brand recognition, digital marketing tactics, and
the workings of the Indian music business. It emphasizes the significance of innovation and
adaptation for marketers and industry stakeholders navigating shifting revenue sources in
the face of digital disruption.

6.3 Performance Tracking:

Performance tracking is the systematic process of gathering, analyzing, and interpreting data
to evaluate the efficacy of various tactics and actions in the context of digital marketing and
content management. It entails keeping track of metrics and key performance indicators
(KPIs) to determine how successfully certain goals and objectives are being achieved.

Website traffic, user engagement, conversion rates, interactions on social media, email
marketing analytics, SEO performance, and many other things are all included in
performance tracking. Gaining practical information into a digital marketing campaign's or
content strategy's strengths and areas for improvement is the main objective.

Businesses and marketers can make data-driven decisions by methodically measuring


performance. They can evaluate strengths and weaknesses, spot patterns, and adjust their
strategy as necessary. Analyzing website analytics, for instance, can show which pages are
most popular, aiding in the organization of content generation efforts. Metrics of social
media involvement can drive content distribution plans, and information about conversion
rates can direct website optimization efforts.

Performance monitoring is a continuous activity that calls for the usage of different analytics
software and solutions. It not only assesses past performance but also provides information
for upcoming campaigns and initiatives. In the end, it gives businesses the ability to fulfil
their goals in a constantly changing digital environment and maximize the return on
investment (ROI) for their digital marketing initiatives.

1. Set Clear Goals and KPIs: Establishing defined goals and Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs) is the first step in performance tracking. Included in these should
be measures like website traffic, conversion rates, engagement, lead generation, or
revenue development. They should also be in line with overall business objectives.
Setting SMART goals offers a clear framework for monitoring development.
SMART goals should be precise, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time bound.

tools like CRM platforms, social media analytics platforms, email marketing

website traffic, sales, and other pertinent indicators.
3. Monitor Website Traffic: Keep track of website traffic to learn how visitors engage
with content. The number of visits, unique visitors, page views, bounce rate, and
average session length are important indicators. Analyze traffic sources to find out
which channels are bringing in the most customers.
4. Examine Audience Engagement with material: Examine how audience interacts with
material. Monitor statistics like click-through rates (CTR), likes, shares, and
comments, as well as increases in social media followers. This information assists in
determining which material is most popular with audience and guides the
development of new content.
5. Track Conversions: Tracking conversions is crucial for assessing the success of
content in reaching particular objectives. Keep track of conversions like form
submissions, email signups, product purchases, and downloads. Measure content's
effectiveness at persuading users to do desired actions by looking at conversion rates.

of website. Track backlinks, organic search volume, and keyword rankings. Examine
which keywords get the most organic traffic and adjust content as necessary.
7. Examine Social Media Metrics: A variety of metrics are available on social media
platforms to gauge performance. Keep track of analytics like click-through rates on
shared links, reach, engagement, and follower growth. Determine the platforms that
work best for brand.
8. Regularly examine and Report: Regularly examine performance measures and
provide reports on them. Make thorough reports that highlight important results,
patterns, and problem areas. Share these reports with the appropriate parties, such as
the marketing groups or the top executives of the business.
9. Recognize Insights and Modify Approaches: Utilize the data by interpreting it.
Determine what is effective and what needs to be improved. Utilize these data to
modify content strategies, including content subjects, distribution methods, and
audience targeting.
10. Continuous Optimization: Monitoring performance is a continuous process.
Continually adjust content marketing tactics in light of the data gathered. Try out

new strategies, evaluate various content forms, and adjust to shifting consumer
preferences or commercial trends.
11. Stay Informed and Develop: Keep up with the most recent developments in content
marketing and digital analytics, as well as industry best practices.
12. Communicate Results: It's important for company to effectively communicate
performance results. To promote a data-driven culture, communicate wins, lessons
learned, and areas for growth with team.

By using this thorough performance tracking procedure, individuals may receive important
insights into the success of their content marketing activities and continuously improve their

7.Problem Framing & problem Analysis

7.1 TOWS Analysis:

Organizations can frame their issues and possibilities using the TOWS analysis, a strategic
planning technique. Threats, Opportunities, Weaknesses, and Strengths make up this
acronym. Identify the internal and external elements that have an impact on project or
organization during the problem-framing phase. Threats and weaknesses are internal
obstacles that must be overcome, whereas opportunities and strengths are available resources
from the outside world.

Problem analysis comes next after the problem has been framed using a TOWS analysis.
This entails delving deeply into each cited element. It evaluates the effects of threats and
weaknesses and determine potential countermeasures and looks into how to take advantage
of the abilities and opportunities to reach goals. Problem analysis aids in decision-making
by weighing the benefits and drawbacks of various strategies.

1. Strengths:
• Soul Yatra and Filmytronix, two outstanding bands from Music Mode Studio
noted for their musical talent and originality. This offers a useful advantage
for developing intriguing content and enticing consumers.

Maithili Ambavane 39
Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

• Music Mode has established a solid reputation in the neighborhood music


scene thanks to years of musical brilliance in Mumbai. This established
presence can be used to engage a devoted fan base and draw in new ones.
• The studio stands out in the field thanks to its knowledge of music production
and direction. This skill set has the potential to be a digital marketing
campaign's differentiator.
2. Weakness:
• Music Mode Studio could not be well-known on digital platforms, which
could hinder its ability to reach a larger audience and interact with fans in a
meaningful way.
• Similar to many independent music studios, they may not have enough funds
to invest in complete digital marketing strategy and technologies.
• It is not known by its brand but is known for the Director and bands. Brand
value and awareness is not there.
3. Opportunities:
• Music Mode has several potential to increase its online presence,
audience, and engagement thanks to India's increasing digital music
market.
• Using social media sites to engage with fans, share music, and foster a
feeling of community can be successful.
• With the growth of online music streaming services, there is a chance to
share and advertise Soul Yatra and Filmytronix's music with a large
audience.
4. Threats:
• Mumbai's music scene is extremely competitive, with new studios and bands
appearing frequently. It's hard to keep up with the competition.
• The traditional music distribution strategies may be in danger due to the
consumer trend towards streaming services and digital platforms.

Strategy Recommendations:

1. SO (Strengths & Opportunities): Make the most of Music Mode Studio's


advantages by actively engaging the public on social media sites. Produce captivating

Maithili Ambavane 40
Topic: Design, Implementation and Execution of Digital Marketing Strategies and Online Engagements Strategies

content that highlights the bands' performances and the studio's musical prowess.
Utilize the current audience to enter the online world and gain a larger following.
2. ST (Strengths-Threats): By promoting the studio's distinct skills in music
production and the great talent of Soul Yatra and Filmytronix, it can lessen the fear
of growing competition. To stand out, emphasize excellence and quality.
3. WO (Weakness & Opportunities): Despite resource limitations, give priority to
digital marketing initiatives that play to Music Mode's advantages. To reach a larger
audience, investigate low-cost techniques including content development, social
media management, and partnerships with online influencers.
4. WT (Weaknesses and Threats): Consider strategic partnerships or collaborations
with other stakeholders in the music industry to handle resource constraints and
rising competition. Joint partnerships or co-marketing initiatives may be able to help
with these difficulties.

The efficient navigation of the shifting music industry landscape can be made possible by
including a TOWS Analysis into Music Mode Studio's digital marketing plan. It's crucial to
adjust strategies considering the studio's unique circumstances and goals.

7.2 User Journey Mapping:

A method for understanding user experiences and pain points as they engage with a process,
service, or product is called user journey mapping. First is to frame the issue in the problem-
solving stage from the viewpoint of the user. This entails locating the points in a user's
journey where difficulties, annoyances, or inefficiencies occur.

Then, proceed to problem analysis once the problem has been properly framed through user
journey mapping. In this stage, the user journey's touchpoints, feelings, and pain points are
all carefully examined. It can investigate the underlying causes of these problems and rank
them according to how they affect the user experience. Designing solutions that specifically
address user wants and pain areas and eventually enhance the user experience is made easier
with the aid of problem analysis.
