Marketing 4.0 in the Digital EconomyRichard D. Vinas, MBA

This document discusses the transition from traditional to digital marketing. Some key points: 1) Traditional marketing focuses on segmentation, targeting, and positioning while digital marketing uses naturally formed online communities and permission-based opt-in engagement. 2) In traditional marketing, brands control the message while digital platforms allow for public feedback that can impact brands. 3) Traditional marketing uses the 4Ps (product, price, place, promotion) while digital follows the 4Cs of co-creation, currency-like pricing, communal activation, and conversation. 4) Both traditional and digital strategies are needed - traditional to build awareness while digital drives action and advocacy. Companies must integrate these approaches in the digital economy.
