A good marketer understands and uses the best techniques to get optimal visibility with the right future customers; a great marketer introduces the leading edge for strategic advantage in gaining visibility both externally and internally. When marketing leads identified audiences to places they could not go on their own and shows them they cannot get that result anywhere else it creates organizational change and business growth.</p><p><br></p><p>Digital transformation is one of the most significant and essential priorities of our time.
