Interactive advertising is a dynamic form of marketing communication that directly engages consumers through active participation, feedback, or interaction. This approach fosters two-way communication and engagement, enabling consumers to interact with ad content in real-time. The goal of interactive advertising is to captivate viewers, gather insights, and drive engagement and conversions, ultimately enhancing brand awareness and generating leads.
The primary types of interactive advertising include sponsorship, blogging, widgets, offline activation, and social media. Sponsorship advertising involves promotional content created by a company or individual to support an event, activity, or organization in exchange for visibility and branding opportunities. This strategy is utilized by organizations ranging from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to large enterprises. End users of interactive advertising encompass various industries such as media and entertainment, banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), retail and e-commerce, automotive, education, and others.
