Digital is Changing the Game!


I am a Certified Digital Marketer, CDM - shouted the embroidery on the sleek white jacket that I received last Jan. 20, 2011 as one of 18 CDM graduates of the 1st batch of the Ateneo- IMMAP (Internet Marketing and Mobile Association of the Philippines). While this technically means I completed the 11 modules of the Digital Marketing diploma program (2009 to 2010) it means so much more...



The CDM program included 11 modules covering marketing using Mobile, Email, Websites, Blogs, Search Engines, Social Networks, Virtual Communities as part of an Ethical and Integrated Marketing Communications Strategy. The latest and most popular technologies are already being used in AGSB and ASMPH marketing management classes where students have used personal Google blogs, Facebook, Slideshare and LinkedIn to view lectures, submit assignments, get latest announcements and attend on-line classes. More importantly, the students have continued access to the class marketing resources even after the trimester ends.

Digital is changing the game!

18P Paradigm for Marketing Analysis

The 4Ps of Marketing has long been widely used to represent a summation of the most basic marketing concepts.

This 18P paradigm presents a new mindset for marketing analysis and provides a systematic approach to tackling today's marketing challenges. Just as a doctor uses a stethoscope to initially diagnose a patient, this simple tool helps focus often limited resources to where it is most needed.

Transforming Options Into Necessities.

No words needed. Grab a handkerchief before you watch this...



This is a difficult product to market because it belongs in the unusual and small category of products you buy not for yourself but for other people. Also, this service does not provide instant gratification which makes it a class on its own.

As they say, the only 2 sure things in this world are taxes and ... Why gamble on something that will definitely happen? Why not prepare? Beats me.
