Marketing is an integral part of every organization and the term marketing communications was initially seen to be a managerial task. Most marketing communication methodologies are focused on advertising, sales promotion, direct marketing and public relations. The new technological innovations provide an opportunity to enhance the visibility products and promotions. Further, they actively engage consumers through various media. Due to the continuous development and innovations in the digital media the original proposal of IMC framework has become partially or fully obsolete. The main objective of this paper is to evaluate the theoretical review of IMC during the last decade.
