Why a digital strategy is more important than ever In the last six months we've noticed a considerable increase in demand for our Social Media campaigns, this of course includes Facebook and Twitter, but also requires integration with blogs, news feeds and websites in general, and this is where I have to tell people: "What you need is a digital strategy."

Branded3 has developed its consultancy services from years of industry experience in finding out the best solution for our clients.
