Why Digital Marketing?

Digital and social media specialists are the most in-demand in the marketing sector as the rate of technology adoption in Singapore soars, according to recruitment firm Randstad. 

– Randstad, 27 Feb 2021

 

“The job role “Digital Marketing Specialist” had the highest volume of job postings out of the range of marketing occupations in 2021.”

– LinkedIn Internal Data, 8 Jun 2021

 

“Southeast Asia’s internet economy may hit $1t in GMV by 2030, driving up the demand for digital talents”

– TechInAsia, 10 Nov 2021

 

Even with the market trends going up and down, the industry has been seeing an upward stroke of Digital Marketing courses offered within places of Singapore. This trend made news as people are taking courses for digital marketing introduction and implementation of such practices to their own businesses.

 

It has been regarded as the next big marketing thing by industry experts and it seems to it that it is true. Digital marketing courses and academies have been giving courses and certificates for learning the best practices with digital marketing.
