Digital Marketers Are Wrong to Focus Only on ROI
If you work in digital, you’re probably getting a bit tired of the ROI question by now. We are all tasked with justifying our pitches and projects with proving where the ROI lies directly. We need to show that whatever ad, video or app we run, directly leads to X number of sales online, or X number of conversions.

eBrand Interactive will eventually be rebranded as Medianista
eBrand Media is in the process of rebranding eBrand Interactive as Medianista. We think the word eBrand” is rooted in the web and is a reflection of another era. As an increasing number of people use smart phones, tablets and phablets to work, purchase and play; we believe that name Medianista will better reflect our proven agency capabilities not only on the web but in mobile marketing as well.
It’ll take months but once launched; Medianista will continue to do what eBrand Interactive has always done — deliver industry-leading marketing solutions from our value added platform along with continuing to provide our famous platinum level client support.
Below are the 1st logo mockups to come from our design department.
