You should be aware of these fantastic female marketers.
As the internet was a massive game-changer in the timeline of technological growth, digital marketing has proven to be a significant game-changer in a labour market dominated by males. In a culture where women have a low representation in top positions, digital marketing has provided a forum for women to demonstrate their ability as thought leaders, innovators, and sophisticated strategists. It is noteworthy that women account for around 68 per cent of social media influencers, which is a significant area of digital marketing.
Digital marketing is a convergence of creativity, technical aptitude, financial acumen, and strategic ability that provides a wide range of opportunities for professional success. If difficult circumstances necessitate tough people, then a surge of innovation necessitates inventive individuals, and women have refused to take a back seat this time. They break down barriers, shift narratives, develop their companies, and gain influence.
Isn’t it fascinating? Would you believe it if I told you that some women had made millions of dollars in income and millions more for their clientele through their marketing strategies? That, however, is simply the reality. To put it mildly, these women are inspirational. If you’re wondering who some of these women are, look no further because I’ve written about 12 of them below.

To conclude on Women in Digital Marketing:
As time passes, it becomes simpler for women to build a name for themselves in any field, mainly digital marketing. Historically, what has been a male-dominated field is slowly but steadily giving way to outright Girl Power. It’s a sensible decision to throw open the doors and embrace the variety and distinct viewpoint that women offer to digital marketing. Therefore #BreaktheBias, #HappyInternationalWomen’sDay
