eBook: Vietnam Digital Marketing Fundamentals from Chandler Nguyen

viI am very excited to introduce to you the first ebook, exclusively written for Vietnam market “Vietnam Digital Marketing Fundamentals“.

This ebook was written with the following audiences in mind:

• Fresh Graduates who are looking for opportunities in Digital Marketing Industry
• Digital marketing professionals with 2-3 years of experience in one specific area of digital (for example: Media Planner, SEO specialist, Social media specialist that are looking for more)
• Traditional Marketers/Account Managers who want to learn more about Digital Marketing
• Traditional agency owners in Vietnam
• International agencies who want to explore Vietnam
• International providers who want to understand more about the local market

This ebook is about 200+ page long, structured into two parts:

• Part 1 (6 chapters)

We are going to review the digital marketing landscape in the US, China, Singapore and Vietnam. It is important to understand where we are and where Digital marketing stands in the marketing mix in Vietnam.

Next we look at the agency world to understand who the big players are. Then we discuss about the potential of Digital marketing in Vietnam and how to learn Digital marketing effectively. 

• Part 2 (8 chapters)

This is it. We deep dive into Digital Analytics, Owned Media (including desktop assets, mobile assets like mobile site vs native app and social assets), Paid Media (Display and Search). At the end there is a chapter on digital strategy as well. 

Brand’s fanpage is put under Owned Media, Social Assets.

The ebook is in English and I explained about the rationale in Chapter 1, Introduction.

I realized after doing some searches in Vietnam that there are not that many English books about this subject in Vietnam. This ebook might be one of the first books on this subject. That means there will be some mistakes (guaranteed) and I hope that by the help from you (through comments in this post), I could make the necessary changes.

Here is the link to buy the pdf version @ $2.99: (you can use visa/master card or paypal account)

Please note that you can NOT read the Kindle version using PDF reader.

Before you buy the book, please note that it was written at the end of 2013 so some facts about Vietnam market already changed since then. However, the overall approach still makes sense.
