The outbreak of Covid-19 hit the economy terribly hard. Industries shattered, people lost jobs and businesses crumbled. Those that saw opportunity, embraced different strategies for business growth and innovated, saw new heights. Digital Marketing is one of the most cost-efficient and effective tools to enhance awareness and boost business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Located in Toronto, Ontario, SocialEyes Communications Inc. is a digital marketing and business development consulting firm that has pioneered the market with exemplary services. The firm offers a variety of services in the digital space including social media management, advertising and lead generation, business development consulting, content creation and marketing, brand building, website design, video and photography, and digital marketing coaching.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marly Broudie, CEO of SocialEyes Communications expresses that the main goal is \u201chelping businesses hit and surpass their stride by empowering them to shift perceptions and penetrate the digital marketplace in unprecedented ways\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"the-competitive-advantage\"><strong>The Competitive Advantage<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are thousands of digital marketing firms in North America; what makes SocialEyes different?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Marly states, <em>\u201cI take great pride in the fact that we are so much more than a social media company that focuses on creating content, posting content and hoping for the best. At <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/socialeyescommunications.com\/\"><em>SocialEyes<\/em><\/a><em>, we marry digital marketing and business development, and I believe this truly sets us apart.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A digital marketing strategy is only effective if it is creating new opportunities for the business as a whole. This element is largely a result of David Broudie, Marly Broudie\u2019s husband and SocialEyes\u2019 Chief Sales Officer (CSO).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David has a background in financial services with extensive experience in digital marketing for business growth. He has coached, trained and mentored professionals in and out of financial services across Canada, and has led workshops, training sessions and seminars on lead generation, cultivating relationships and fostering growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David\u2019s strategic lens has been central to the company\u2019s success. They get to know their client\u2019s goals, objectives, strengths, weaknesses and vision prior to strategizing, so they can best leverage digital marketing tools to help their clients achieve success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The firm\u2019s <em>unique approach, especially in the face of COVID-19, is a testament to their competitive advantage. \u201cAs companies weathered these storms, we spent a great deal of time providing insights and clarity that, for many, could have been the difference between surviving and thriving.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I truly believe our strengths in pivoting businesses in the face of unprecedented challenges, set us apart from the status quo.\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"encouraging-creative-thinking\"><strong><em>Encouraging Creative Thinking<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cCreativity is intelligence, having fun.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>~Albert Einstein<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At SocialEyes, the goal is to inspire a culture where the team feels encouraged and comfortable to put ideas on the table, which allows creativity to breed and employees to feel motivated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the firm is operating virtually now and lacks face-to-face interaction with team members, collaboration has its challenges however, \u201cwe do try to encourage this culture by conducting virtual brainstorming sessions that encourage staff to work together, share ideas and collaborate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"the-co-relation-between-mission-core-values-and-vision\"><strong>The Co-Relation Between Mission, Core Values and Vision<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Mission, core values and vision are three critical components needed to establish every business\u2019 overall goals.
