4 Things You Need To Know About Digital, for Senior Leaders.
We wanted to create a digital marketing glossary for senior leaders.
We struggled to find content which was aimed at business leaders, with simple, jargon-free, non technical descriptions.
To help categorise the terms we split them into 4 different types.
The Digital Glossary has a list of terms and an associated 'Type' next to it, so you know which of the 4 categories that term relates to.
The 4 types of digital terms explained
These types are shown next to the term within the glossary.
