The Interactive Website

It is this step where they give you 7 seconds to 2 minutes to determine if you have what they need. Engagement is also that step where you are building trust and rapport, just like face-to-face marketing and sales interactions.

Engage Customers

The true differentiator of the Internet is the ability to give a potential customer “exactly” the information they are looking for at the exact time they need it. In most print and TV advertising, everyone gets the same message. Your brochures are probably one size fits all too.

On the Web, you can have a 100-page website where each visitor only sees three to four pages. They get your sales message tailored to their position, place in the sales cycle, and readiness to buy.
