Often, people in the Gambia-department can have broader knowledge of what is going on locally than what one would expect from a paid marketing agent far away or what the people at the headquarters of your organization are aware of.

You can have alerts for all employees, freelancers you use, your trademarks including websites you run and words and phrases you focus on. All of this gives you a good overview of what is being talked about that matters internally. Google’s notification is free to use and helps you to be early in terms of being on top of what your competitors in Gambia are doing, potential public relations disasters in the form of negative reviews and much else useful.Ranks.nl
