Interactive
Digital is moving markets! Interactive marketing has changed that way that brands and products take their message to their consumers. No longer is the push methodology of traditional media the best way to engage current and potential customers. In the digital world, interactive defines the process where two-way communication takes place between the brand and it’s consumers. The brand can speak to it’s customers individually or to a group of them. That communication is not necessarily verbal. It can be written, or may take the form of on going action that flows back and forth using a digital application.
Engage your prospect! The key to interactive as it applies to marketing is that there should exist some sort of ongoing dialogue between the marketer and the consumer. We call this engagement. It is simply an acknowledgment and interaction between the consumer and the brand or product. There are many ways and opportunities ton do this. Many of these take place long before the product need or purchase decision.
Website is a place to start, not end. Having a website is not necessarily interactive. Are there elements on your site that engage your site visitors? Not just glancing at pages, but something that causes them to participate in your site. Maybe it’s watching a video, commenting on a blog post or playing an embedded game.
Engage through social media. Interactive and engagement are the basis of social media marketing applications such as Twitter and Facebook. We’re very, very good at that, too.
One more thing about engagement. Our marketing philosophy is based on the interaction between the consumer and your brand or product through online or other interactive efforts. When there’s engagement, it leads to much higher brand and product recall, greater brand loyalty and ultimately product purchase or usage.
Today’s consumer wants to be talked with, not talked to.
Traditional media? Our experience in broadcast, print and experiential coupled with more than a dozen years in interactive marketing gives us great insight in how to best craft an interactive program that takes advantage of all your marketing efforts, and best positions you in the interactive space to engage your current and potential customers. But, as marketers who cut our teeth on traditional media (print, broadcast, outdoor, direct mail), we are evangelists when it comes to using interactive!
