A Interactive marketing company is a type of company that takes a more personal, conversational approach to reaching an audience with a product. Why are there more interactive marketing companies? Because companies want to know what the consumer wants and they want to know how the consumer thinks. If you own your own business, or are thinking of starting one, here are three reasons why it is important to work in an interactive marketing company.

They Listen to the Customer. John Deighton at Harvard says that, "interactive marketing is the ability to address the customer, remember what the customer says and address the customer again in a way that illustrates that we remember what the customer has told us" Don't we as business owners, and customers all want to be heard? We want people to understand us, what we want, and where we are coming from.

They understand how to advertise efficiently. Anyone can advertise. And by advertise I mean throwing an ad out into the world and hoping that the right kind of people will see their add. But, not just anyone can market, specifically be an interactive marketer. An interactive marketer knows where to place an add and what kind of people they want to see the add. Then they approach those people and find out what their peers are interested in. The next step is to take the advice of the customer and use the techniques they suggest. We just went from advertising to Interactive marketing.An interactive marketing company knows how to implement these skills and teach you how to do it as well.

They are on the internet. Everyone is on the internet today. And many people are spending large amounts of their time involved in social media. These are the people who could potentially be your customers. They are the ones who have friends that they can tell about your product. These are the people who are spending their money online, and know people who are doing the same. It is crucial to the growth of any business to interact with people online.

Having happy customers who feel understood so they will want to return to you and keep buying your product, along with efficient advertising and Interactive marketing, are essential components to any business. And above all else, many people are searching for things on the internet. You want to have a presence online so that you can be found!
