00:05:00 Digital marketing comprises of three different media channels: owned media (which is created by the brand itself), paid media (which is paid for to drive visibility or clicks and traffic to a product website or service), and earned media (which is generated by consumers in response to content shared by the brand or via voluntary mentions). Paid media is important for building trust and legitimacy in the market, while earned media is a main platform for communicating all that the company is sells and does. Paid media can be effective, but there are challenges to driving audience engagement from paid media, particularly with today's ad saturation and the ability to skip or report ads. Finally, earned media is the ultimate goal for brands and digital marketers, and is useful for building awareness, generating familiarity, and driving sales and conversions.
00:10:00 Traditional media, such as print ads and TV commercials, are effective in reaching a large number of people, but may have a low frequency, meaning that a single advertisement may be seen by few people at a time. Digital media, such as social media posts and online ads, have a high frequency, meaning that a single advertisement may be seen by many people at once.

00:20:00 The digital marketing institute has developed a methodology, called "3i," that helps digital marketers achieve their goals. The three principles of 3i are "initiate," "integrate," and "iterate." "Initiate" refers to starting with what the customer wants and working backwards; "integrate" emphasizes the importance of tweaking a digital marketing campaign in response to user interaction; and "iterate" emphasizes the importance of testing and improving an activity based on feedback from customer engagement and data.
00:25:00 Digital marketing is a process that helps businesses deliver on their objectives. In the iterate stage, marketers ask "do they engage?" If they are not engaged, what can be changed to make them more engaged? Did you go through the right path? Did you position your product in a way that resonates with the market? Are your content and keyword choices driving the desired action from the audience? Once you've done all this testing, you can begin to improve by doing more of what worked and pulling back on what didn't work. Digital Marketing Institute's 3i principle methodology is a key system for devising, executing, and reflecting on your digital marketing activity. This way, marketers can continuously get insights that help them to optimize their performance.
