The Digato Family-
At Digato, what matters are the numbers and the results. They have induced a healthy work environment which includes the ‘work from wherever’ scheme. This does not bind the employees to a specific working schedule and helps them to concentrate on their work better. With the help of these work cultures, the company is able to pull off the targets and match the numbers in the accounted time. It has also helped them to conduct successful projects and keep the team spirits high.
“We also believe in the power of independent professionals, a.k.a freelancers and believe they match the vibe we are trying to set in our company’s culture”, says Mr Aakash.
- A healthy work environment that includes a ‘work from wherever’ scheme. This helps the employees to concentrate on their work better, pull off targets more efficiently, and run successful projects.
- Their expertise is the psychology of running high yielding Advertising Campaigns.
- As the tagline of the company goes ‘Marketers lie, Numbers don’t’, Digato focuses on the ROI or the ROAS- return on Ad Spend. The most important number is not CPC (Cost per Click), ad spend, or even revenue.
