Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, digital marketing plays a pivotal role in fostering the healthy growth of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) into several core businesses. By leveraging cutting-edge strategies and technologies, SMEs can enhance their online presence, reach a wider audience, and drive sustainable business growth. Digital marketing not only helps SMEs to stand out in competitive markets but also enables them to adapt to evolving consumer behaviors and market trends. 

Through harnessing the power of social media platforms to exploit data analytics and customized marketing techniques, SMEs can engage with their target in more meaningful ways. With the adoption of creative and innovative digital marketing strategies, SMEs can enhance their competitiveness, foster customer loyalty, and drive long-term success in an ever-evolving marketplace. 

This Special Issue of Sustainability explores the transformative impact of digital marketing strategies on SMEs, highlighting their role in driving innovation, fostering customer engagement, and ultimately propelling business success and empowering SMEs for sustainable growth in the digital age.

We invite researchers and practitioners to submit original research papers, case studies, and theoretical perspectives that contribute to the following themes (as keywords).

Dr. Cláudia Ribau
