phones and electronic billboards, as well as via digital and television and radio channels.
Digital Marketing Strategy:-
Digital marketing is a vast and confusing field that encompasses a massive list of marketing
opportunities, including social media, content marketing, advertising, search engine
optimization, demand generation, retargeting, communities, viral video, mobile marketing,
and online reputation management. In this introduction to digital marketing, I’ll show you
some of the critical areas where businesses must put in effort and how to make the right
decisions about where else to focus your investment of time and money.

In fact, the truth is that you don’t have to be on all social media platforms and you don’t
have to utilize every digital marketing tool in order to be successful in marketing your
business. Rather, there are a few key tools that make sense for mostbusinesses to employ,
and decisions about the rest should be based on where your target market is spending time
and how they find out about businesses like yours.

displaying retargeting ads to them as they visit other websites.

in real-time through an automated bidding system. Programmatic advertising enables brands
or agencies to purchase ad impressions on publisher sites or apps within milliseconds
through a sophisticated ecosystem.
6. Website Testing.
Web testing is a software testing practice to test websites or web applications for potential
bugs. ... By performing website testing, an organization can make sure that the web-based
system is functioning properly and can be accepted by real-time users. The UI design and
functionality are the captains of website testing.

convert, store and play back video content on the Internet, often via a structured, large-scale
system that may generate revenue.\

Organization Profile

Summer Internship Project 2020
ORGANISATION PROFILE
The Unique Academy, Pune was founded by Mr. Tukaram Jadhav& Mr. Malhar Patil with
the vision of making a substantial difference to the society through the field of education. The
Academy has become a renowned and well established name in the arena of coaching for
Civil Services Examinations:
UPSC and MPSC. During more than last fifteen years since its commencement, (informally
in the beginning and formally since 2006) it has carved out a niche for itself as a reliable,
studentcentric, and result oriented institute in the field of civil services coaching, be it state
level or central level. The very fact that in such a short span, more than 1000 students from
the Unique Academy have achieved spectacular success in UPSC/MPSC speaks volumes for
itself.
However, it is pertinent to note at this juncture that the Unique Academy is not just ‘another
UPSC/MPSC coaching class’ solely aimed at commercial interests. In fact, it is not a
commercially driven institute, but a movement with much broader and deeper vision and
commitment towards an egalitarian and truly democratic polity and society.

Theoretical Background
Overview:
The Unique Academy is sincerely committed towards the goal of an egalitarian and
democratic society where the discriminatory walls between rich and poor, urban and rural,
upper and lower castes, men and women, English speaking and vernacular etc don’t inhibit
the opportunities for development of one’s inner potential. Moreover it aims at eradication of
all such divides. For this to happen, The Academy believes, it is very necessary that the
deprived sections of the society have to be empowered in the real sense of the term. The
Unique Academy strongly believes that if the real empowerment of the teeming millions has
to materialize rapidly, the polity and society have to be sensitive towards the prevailing
injustices, inequalities and oppressions in the society. It is equally necessary that the future
Page | 13
Summer Internship Project 2020
Indian leadership, the decision makers, should hail from the hitherto marginalized, deprived
and oppressed sections of the society. For, they can ensure that the system doesn’t become
exploitative, but becomes more responsive, responsible and humane. Hence the Academy
strives hard to send socially sensitive and responsive candidates in the civil services so that
they can make every effort to change the ‘system’ from within. With such noble intentions at
heart, The Unique Academy decided to focus on enabling aspirants to make successful
careers in state and central civil services. Thus, for the Academy, coaching for civil services
is a means to bring about a positive change in bureaucracy and thereby in the society at large.
The motto of the Academy “empowerment through knowledge” manifests this very ethos of
the Academy. In order to realize its objective of shaping up sensitive and socially committed
bureaucrats, especially from the hitherto marginalized sections of the society, the Academy is
constantly engaged in the task of spreading the awareness of competitive exams in the nooks
and corners of Maharashtra, especially in rural areas so that more and more students can
become successful in them. Apart from taking regular batches for UPSC/MPSC examinations
and IAS Foundation Course, the Academy has been organising free workshops, seminars,
conferences, lecture series by successful candidates, Friday Frontline, Publication of useful
study material and books with a special focus on Marathi medium students, running a book
store for easy and convenient access to books for students, so on and so forth. Through its
meticulously designed courses, activities and publications the Unique Academy provides
relevant and pragmatic guidance to the students.
The Unique Academy along with coaching, also offers personal guidance to each individual
student on holistic development of his/her personality. In other words it prepares the students
to succeed in any competitive exam per say.
The Unique Academy is also broadening its horizons an aims to work in the field of Media
and Journalism; Policy Research, Maharashtra Study Centre, Training of political
representatives, political activists, office bearers of political parties and their youth wings as
well as bureaucrats etc.

LEARNING OUT COME FROM PROJECT
“Marketing takes a day to learn. Unfortunately it takes a lifetime to master” by Philip Kotler:
Before joining The Unique Academy, I believed that I will become a good marketer because I
know all the concepts which I learned from my classrooms. But from the beginning of second
week itself, I understood, marketing is not about concepts it’s all about the e
Page | 34
Summer Internship Project 2020
got to know that the Strategy used for each problem is not same. The problem may be similar
but the strategy required to solve that problem may be different. When I asked my guide
about some specific strategy to solve similar issues then He told me this “strategy is not a
rock science you will take some time to create an excellent strategy”. experience that we get
day after day after facing various situations.
Learning is the best Teacher:
During internship at The Unique Academy, Digital Marketing was completely a new learning
for me. Every day I used to learn new things from my guide and other members of the
company and implement those things in my task those were assigned to me. I used to commit
many mistakes initially and through those mistakes I learned.
Every problem used to be different and strategy required to solve every problem used to be
different. Learning that I got during my internship was a experience for me.
• Daily posting of various services provided by the company on social media sites such as
• YouTube
We used to make daily posting of various banners and posters of training that were going to
be conducted by the company. It also used to update the posts and photos of training that
were conducted by the company recently on daily basis. We also used to join the various
groups on LinkedIn and post those things on that group.
• Facebook
This is a Facebook Ad we used to run on Facebook Ads for The UNIQUE Academy Landing
Page, The UNIQUE Academy Page Links, etc. Depending upon the response of clicks from
individual ad we used to prepare strategy. In Facebook Ads target were mostly the employees
who used to work. The segmentation of the ad was done accordingly.
Work life balancing:
This is the most important learning for me. This SIP thought me how to balance your
personal responsibility and professional responsibility together and how to enjoy life even

after getting a job. Working in an agency is not an easy task; the person wants to face a lot of
stress and challenges.
Page | 36
Summer Internship Project 2020
Hootsuite: Another paid social media management tool, Hootsuite helps you manage all your
social media platforms, reply to user questions and comments across channels, and monitor
your social media strategy’s performance via analytics.
CoSchedule: A paid tool, CoSchedule focuses on more than managing your social media.
Schedule your social media posts, as well as build content calendars, publish blog posts, and
more.
What does social media management include?
1. Researching your target audience
Investigating your audience is a core part of social media management. If your agency — or
your company doesn’t know who your audience is, it makes developing a social media
strategy challenging.
Know who your audience is, and you’ll know where to find them online.
That’s critical, as you want to maximize your investment in social media management. By
targeting your audience on their preferred platform, you can earn a bigger return on
investment (ROI).
Invest in social media management services, and you can expect your account manager to ask
about your target audience at the start. In some cases, an agency may take the initiative to ask
about your target audience when you call to discuss their services.
2. Creating your social media strategy
Before your account manager can launch your social media campaign, they need to develop
your strategy. In most cases, they’ll focus on building a strategy for each platform due to the
different roles and uses of Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, and other social media platforms.
In addition to considering your audience, they’ll also look at the following factors:
Your goals: What does your business want to accomplish with social media? Do you want to
build more brand awareness among consumers or establish brand loyalty among existing
clients? Or, is there another goal you want to accomplish?
Your industry: What do audiences in your industry want to know? Are there content gaps that
your company can fill, such as with blog posts or guides that you can then share on social
media? Or, are there industry leaders you can connect with on different platforms?
Your brand: What is your brand voice? Do you have a set of standards or processes when
engaging with clients in a public forum? Or, how does your branding influence the colors and
media that you use?
3. Designing your social media accounts
Page | 37
Summer Internship Project 2020
With only 26 percent of businesses using social media in their business strategy, it’s
understandable if you need to create or update your account on different platforms, like
Instagram or Twitter. It’s critical, however, that your social media accounts coincide with
your brand.
In most cases, social media design will focus on your account’s static images, such as the
following:
Your Twitter header and background
Your Facebook header, icon, and profile picture
Your Instagram profile picture
Once they’ve designed your social media accounts — and you’ve approved of the designs —
your social media specialist can start working towards your marketing goals, such as
increasing post engagement or driving conversions.
4. Building your content calendar
Another deliverable included in most social media management services is a content calendar
for each of your social media accounts. This calendar serves as a reference point for you and
your professional social media management team. Before publishing these posts, your social
media manager will likely request that you review and approve all the content beforehand.
While this requires some effort on your part, it guarantees that the only content that goes live
is the content you want.
5. Creating platform-specific content
A social media specialist does more than build a content calendar for your company they
also create the content in it. In some cases, they may oversee every aspect of content creation,
from developing the topic to writing the copy to selecting the media.
To create the best possible content, however, many social media specialists will work with
graphic designers and copywriters. The result is a piece of content that resonates with users
and accomplishes your company’s goals.
6. Responding to your followers
A day-to-day responsibility included with many social media management services is
interacting with your followers, as well as commenters. For many businesses, this service is
invaluable as it has a direct impact on brand awareness and brand loyalty.
For social media users, your company’s interaction with them demonstrates that you care. In
many industries, that will set your business apart from your competitors. It can even become
a selling point for consumers, especially since more than 65 percent of people use social
media for customer service.

• How to Advertise on Google with Google Ads Decide what your goals are.
Create your buyer persona(s) Research your keywords.
• Choose your budgets and bids.
• Build out your campaign structure.
• Write your ad copy.
• Design and publish landing pages.
• Set up conversion tracking.
2. Facebook Ads: -
Facebook is a tool that is right for just about any business in 2020. Though paid ads can
become cumbersome and expensive, they’re totally optional. Your best bet is to have an
active account to keep in touch and connect with users. If you have the budget and time (not
to mention the patience) you can look into exploring Facebook ads.
Through this intensive growth strategy, Facebook Inc.'s strategic objective is to purchase or
establish new subsidiaries or businesses to increase revenues and market reach. The cost
leadership generic competitive strategy involves cost minimization that supports the
implementation of this intensive strategy.
The real advantage of Facebook is that it's a real-time social networking site. This makes it
one of the best sources to stay updated with the latest news and information. Major news
Page | 39
Summer Internship Project 2020
usually goes viral on Facebook, and most brands use it to announce important things
regarding their products/services.
Perks: A massive perk about Facebook is that it features a wide variety of ads and content
formats, from photos to videos to text. Even better, for more than 40 percent of business-
tobusiness (B2B) marketers, it’s led to new clients.
3. Instagram Ads: -
Instagram is great if your audience is younger and typically shopping from mobile. Plus,
Instagram created a “Checkout” feature which means it’s fully set up for e-commerce. Now,
your clients can look at product images and purchase what they like directly from their
Instagram account.
Instagram actually has the highest average engagement rate of all the main social channels,
beating Facebook and Twitter. In fact, it even has a higher brand engagement rate, which
shows the audience on Instagram is more open to branded content than they are on other
platforms.
You decide to use this platform (which you probably should), do some market research to
make sure your audience is on Instagram, create a consistent posting schedule, and make
your photos engaging and relevant to your brand (no more snapshots of your Tuesday night
dinner).
Perks: A benefit of Instagram is that users love to use the platform. That’s why 60 percent
check-in multiple times a day, which increases the chance that users will not only see your
posts but also interact with them.
4. Twitter:-
Twitter had a brilliant marketing strategy from the get-go with their character limit: give
everyone a voice but limit the “noise.” Businesses, journalists, celebrities and, for better or
worse, even Presidents use Twitter to share stories, news articles, or humorous anecdotes
every day. When it comes to using Twitter for business, you can definitely find ways to
monetize the platform. Part of doing that is standing out from your competition, consistently
engaging with your audience, and adding valuable content with all of your posts.
Depending on your commitment to social media marketing, Twitter can be a powerful tool
for building brand awareness and connecting directly with other customers (not to mention
other influencers). Keep in mind that Twitter needs its own marketing strategy, and you’ll
need to plan for multiple tweets per day.
Perks: One advantage of Twitter is its users — they’re active and happy to engage with other
users. Twitter also features a specific audience, which is helpful if people between the ages of
18 to 29 are in your target market.
5. LinkedIn: -
Page | 40
Summer Internship Project 2020
LinkedIn was one of the first modern social media sites to really take hold (and stick around,
unlike MySpace). It’s become a networking tool exclusively for professionals and has
revolutionized the way we seek, find, and get hired for jobs. It’s also a pretty good resource
for sharing content.
One thing to keep in mind about LinkedIn, however, is that you’re more likely to find
business partners than new customers (unless your market includes B2B). LinkedIn is kind of
like owning a pair of nice dress shoes: you’ll likely use them less often but you should really
have them in your closet. While you can (and should) show off your brand with a LinkedIn
business page, it’s core function is tailored to individual use and expanding your professional
network.
Perks: A massive perk about Facebook is that it features a wide variety of ads and content
formats, from photos to videos to text. Even better, for more than 40 percent of business-
tobusiness (B2B) marketers, it’s led to new clients.
6. Youtube Ads:-
YouTube is your best channel to use for video marketing. You can enjoy boosts in SEO,
build your traffic and brand awareness, expand your social reach, market to audiences
overseas, improve your ROI, and diversify your video marketing strategy with multiple
channels.
Youtube is a remarkable video-based platform. More than any of its competition (Instagram,
Snapchat, ), YouTube has become the platform for sharing information via video. It now
boasts 2 billion monthly users and has become a place where people go not only for
entertainment but to learn new things. With YouTube, you can create a video channel and
connect with your users in a totally different way than other social media platforms. You can
create video tutorials to back up your text-based content (like blogs), visually show product
descriptions, or give personal press releases to your viewers. The key, however, is to make
sure you are optimizing your videos for YouTube SEO so they actually get views. You may
also want to consider finding ways to use YouTube to grow your email list.YouTube is a
great social media platform for business in 2020 and beyond. It will likely take a little time
upfront to learn how to shoot and edit videos that meet users’ expectations, but you don’t
need a Hollywood budget. Most up-to-date smartphones are more than capable of recording
high-quality videos.
Perks: A notable benefit of YouTube is that it converts more than any other social media
platform — even Facebook. That can lead to big gains for your company, especially if you’re
offering a high-priced product.

4. It’s free
5. People will subscribe to your channel
Reddit:-
Reddit is an interesting breed when it comes to social media platforms. It’s more about
genuine sharing and learning than it is about connecting and engaging. The reason is fairly
straightforward: most Reddit groups have strict rules as to what you may or may not post for
commercial purposes. In fact, more often than not you’ll be removed from a group if you’re
using a forum to blatantly self-advertise.
Reddit is a great social media platform for your business if you primarily use it for personal
purposes. Because users can go through your posting history, they’ll likely investigate
whether or not you are genuinely contributing to a community or if you are just there to
attract visitors to your website.
That said, Reddit is highly effective at an often overlooked aspect of eCommerce: market
research. In other words, use Reddit to ask questions and get feedback on different parts of
your business (ad campaigns, web design, new products, etc.). Many companies pay loads of
money to gather information from their audience without realizing that Reddit allows them to
do that for free.
7. Pinterest :- Depending on your company, Pinterest is one of the top social media platforms
for small businesses. Founded in 2009 (and live in 2010), it’s gone from a mere 10,000 users
to 291 million active users today. While most of these users are millennials, over half are
women between the ages of 25 and 54. Plus, nearly 40% of new users are men (and that trend
is continuing to rise). Pinterest can be a great traffic driver to your site, but it’s better suited
for some businesses than others. Home decor, cooking recipes, photography sites, and travel
are all examples of businesses that can thrive on Pinterest. Why? Because they have content
that is typically visually appealing and easily shared.
That said, with enough creativity, nearly all businesses can use Pinterest to boost traffic; Plus,
since over 40% of Pinterest users have a household income of over $100k, it’s no wonder the
platform is also great for driving conversions!
Perks: One perk of Pinterest is that users rely on it to plan for future purchases, with one
study discovering that more than 85 percent of millennials use it for that purpose. As a result,
you’re connecting with consumers already planning to buy.
8.Quora:-
When most people think of the best social media platforms for business, Quora isn’t one that
comes directly to mind. But maybe it should. Quora was founded in 2009 and went live in
2010 (exactly like Pinterest) and allowed users to ask questions to the Quora community.

Other users from various backgrounds and expertise can then respond making this a great
platform for learning and sharing.
Quora is a good way for you to look for questions in your professional field, establish
yourself as an authority, and link to content you’ve written on the topics being discussed. But
be warned: just like Reddit, moderators are good at discerning between genuine contribution
to a question and blatant self-advertising. The most successful responses are those that focus
on the question rather than on your own business.
There’s almost no reason not to try out Quora for a couple of months. Once you make an
account, start searching for questions in your field that don’t have too many responses so they
are more likely to be upvoted. Be comprehensive in your answer and only provide links to
your own work that directly helps answer the question.

SUGGESTIONS
The company’s website is not mobile user friendly, so the website should be made mobile
user friendly and information required by the user should be made easy to fetch.
The company’s website does not look like a MNC company’s website. So efforts should be
taken to improve the website of the company.
Lot of money is spent on the Google AdWords and Facebook Ads. The cost to leads
generated is more and leads generated is less. Proper amount should be fixed
everyday for respective ads sites so as to reduce the cost of advertisements and
improve the cost to leads ratio.
Company should take efforts to improve the Mobile version of company’s website.
The content of the website or the graphics available on the website is not easily seen
on the mobile version.

CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
Page | 47
Summer Internship Project 2020
The successful completion of this internship indicates that the future of marketing is in the
hands of digital Marketing. Digital marketing is not only concerned with placing ads in
portals, it consists of integrated services and integrated channels. Marketers want to use
these components in an effective way to reach target groups and to build a brand. In this
digital era marketer is not the custodian for a brand, people who are connected across the
digital platforms are the custodians.
In applying the techniques of SEO through both study and practice, I learned many valuable
lessons about search engines and to use their power to increase the visibility and traffic for a
web presence, be it commercial or nonprofit.
However, I believe there is a fine balance between engaging certain principles of SEO and
the aesthetics of a site. For example, too much tagging and obvious keyword “stuffing” in
content can be a negative experience for readers of a site.
Brands want to build their presence over digital platform, because customers have high
affinity towards digital media than other media’s. More than that customers are highly
information seekers and digital media is the only platform for two way communication
between brands and customers.
Digital media is the best platform to convert a product to a brand. Because it is more cost
effective and it provide lot of touch points to marketer. Brands can able to engage their
target group in an effective way through digital platforms. Digital media is not only for
engagement, brands can increase their customers or they can retain their existing customers.
Digital platforms help to increase the impact of brand recall in target groups.
Indian consumers are highly information seeker and they will do research about a
product/service before going to a retail shop or service providers. So brands want to give
platforms to consumers to understand their product or services or to get a really feel of that
brand.
I conclude my research by quoting again that “Brands can’t sustain without digital
presence”.
