Online & Interactive campaigns change the way we advertise
Not really!!!
Mobile and online still profit from “AIDA(S)” Attract attentionIncite interestDesire to buy of to continue the buying processActionSatisfactied with provided info or purchase
BUT… digital and thus interactive media add a total new dimension to the rules as we know them… Our consumer is looking for interaction, wants to influence the content, compare and share his experiences
This dimension offers brands and advertisers the opportunity to build a much closer and more personal relationship and to detect needs and better meet expectations
