DESCRIPTION
How do you define ‘digital’? A communication channel or method? A convenience enabler? 1s & 0s? The inverse of analog? Bits versus atoms? Something we can no longer live without? I am often asked ‘what is digital’? … ‘is it just our website, or broader than that?’ … ‘what exactly do you mean?’ Here's our definition of ‘digital’ at Cisco.TRANSCRIPT

What is 'digital'?
‘Digital’ drives relevant experiences through
WEB, MOBILE, SOCIAL MEDIA & VIDEO
Together they increase prospect, customer and partner engagement,
generate leads, increase awareness and understanding,
accelerate sales, deliver service and support,
tighten relationships, and improve business results –
with efficiency, immediacy, and high impact.
