What Are Media Platform Certifications?
When you think of certifications, you may not think of Facebook. What if we told you that there are people who are trained in marketing strategies that work best on Facebook? The future’s crazy, isn’t it?
Media platform certifications are designed to learn the best ways to advertise. Each platform has a different certification, and some will have multiple certifications across different aspects of the platform and as they roll out new capabilities. This improves your ability to market digitally since not every platform has the same demographic targets.
What Are the Benefits of Being Certified?
When you have a partner to help you navigate your social media marketing strategy, you set your company up for success. When you work with an agency that has team members who are consistently growing their knowledge in the tactics that will be used in your marketing, you can feel confident that you have an expert in your corner to ensure your marketing is delivering on your goals.
A certified media partner will bring your profits up and your expenditure down. They do this by utilizing their skills in each platform to focus your marketing to maximize results fast.
The partner will also be able to look at the data and optimize in real time, so you don’t have to. It takes the weight off your shoulders as far as understanding the data, but with many social and digital marketing tactics changing within the blink of an eye, keeping up can be strenuous.
Upcoming Certifications in Digital Marketing
New social media platforms are cropping up more and more. With each new social media platform, there’s room for thought leadership. Keeping on top of the next big thing will secure the success of your business.
There are big things on the horizon in the world of media platform certifications. One of the most interesting ones we’ve come across is a certification for Twitch. Twitch is a platform all about live entertainment. Though it was originally marketed for gaming, the platform continues to grow. Since it comes with Amazon prime, it’s the perfect place to advertise.
Having a team certified in Twitch will allow you to reach a new audience. Twitch has been a big deal in the gaming sphere for a while, but now’s the time to make it a big deal for you.
