Marketing

Chirag is a marketing expert, especially in the new form of marketing related to social media marketing. He mentioned how he continuously uses the wild wild west approach in creating new marketing campaigns due to constant changes in algorithms and new emerging platforms. Chirag advised new players and original concepts not to spend more than $30 a day testing the ideas. The test not only resides in one platform like Facebook but also across Snapchat, Instagram, and others. The reason is that one platform tends to work better than another. The strategy better served to focus on the platform that generates the most impact rather than optimizing on the platform of choice that might not be the best platform for your customer base.
