What is marketing?

Marketing is the systematic work of presenting products/services to target audiences, understanding their needs, and converting interest to sales. Modern marketing is not just ads — it integrates research, branding, content, performance, customer relations, analytics.

7 main types of marketing

1. Digital Marketing

All digital channels: website, social, search, email, mobile.

2. Content Marketing

Creating valuable content (blog, video, podcast, infographic) to attract customers. Not hard-sell.

3. Performance Marketing

Ad spend measured by customer acquisition cost. Google Ads, Facebook Ads. ROI-based.

4. SMM

Building brand on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn.

5. SEO

Ranking higher in search. Free organic traffic.

6. Email Marketing

Highest-ROI channel — average 38:1.

7. Influencer Marketing

Promotion via influencers with audiences.

4P model

What works in 2026?

Combination: content + SEO + performance + email. Pure ads = short-term sales, no brand. Pure SEO = slow results. Combination captures both intent-based and search-based customers.

FAQ

How long does a project take?

Simple site 7-30 days, corporate site 30-60 days, ERP/CRM 2-6 months, mobile app 2-4 months. We give exact timeline after reviewing your spec.

Why custom instead of off-the-shelf?

SaaS solutions (Bitrix, Shopify, WordPress) cover 80% of standard cases. But the 20% that doesn't fit is what makes you different from competitors. Custom invests in that 20%.

What about post-launch support?

3-6 months free support is included. After that, monthly SLA (critical bugs = 4 hours, minor fixes = 24 hours).
