14. 4 Benefits of Using Interactive
Content for Awareness
• Benefit 1: Increase Site Retention -
Interactive content increases the amount
of time users spend on your site. For
example, with an interactive quiz, users
typically spend an average of over 4
minutes on your web page. That
outperforms almost all other content
formats.
• Benefit 2: Increase Referral Traffic from
Social - People like to share, and the right
piece of content can contribute to a spike
in traffic to your site.
15. • Benefit 3: Track Performance & Gather
Insights - With data points built in to your
interactive content, you can measure
every aspect of your brand awareness
campaign, including the number of
views, engagement rates, drop-off
points.
• Benefit 4: Marketing Automation
Integration - Interactive content
platforms can integrate with your existing
systems to track awareness
performance.

16. A Tip on Creating
Better Content
Content Strategist Tip: Before you start
writing, get to know your audience and
understand their needs.
Once you’ve decided on the information
you want to convey and campaign goals—
whether it be lead generation or awareness
—select which stages of the buyer’s journey
you’re targeting to help determine which
interactive piece meets your needs.
17. 5 Types of Interactive Content
We Recommend
• Assessment: Designed to help your
audience identify their pain points and
see the your company as the solution
while still providing value and
recommendations along the way.
• Infographic: Great for top of funnel,
these long scrollable pages can feature
animations, simple quiz questions,
reveal tiles, and more.
• eBook: These multi-page interactive
experiences scream engagement with
copy, imagery, and interactive elements.
18. • Quizzes: Lighter than assessments but
still just as effective, often used to trigger
brand education or entertainment while
capturing user insights.
• Calculator: Often used to show potential
savings these are great tools for the
consideration stage when your audience
is ready to make a decision. This is
where you can provide a measurable and
honest savings on how your product can
save them time or money.

20. What Can Interactive Content
Do for Engagement?
Benefit 1: Repurpose Your Static Content
By transforming static content into an
interactive piece, you’re fostering
engagement, which makes your audience
feel involved. And an involved audience is a
converting audience. And converting means
revenue.
TIP: Sit with your sales team and find out
what content pieces they use when talking
to customers or prospects. What is it about
this piece that is beneficial to their
discovery, conversions, and ultimately
closing.
21. Benefit 2: Engagement Measurement
Interactive content has the built-in
capability to test and measure your
audience’s engagement. Quiz questions
are a great example of data-collection
points.
TIP: Use engagement points to your
advantage. In an interactive experience,
did the user complete the form? Download
the eBook? Engage with multiple quiz
questions or information reveal tiles?

22. An Expert Tip on
Creating Better Leads
“Before someone clicks on a call-to-action,
there is a split second of anxiety. Will they
get back to me? When? Who will be in
touch?
You can address this with one, simple visual
element. Put a face next to the call to
action. It humanizes the website, yes, but it
also answers a question. Who am I really
contacting? Combine faces with CTAs and
watch your conversion rate jump.”
—Andy Crestodina, CMO and Co-Founder, Orbit Media
23. A Tip on
Creating Better Sales
Armed with rich insights directly from your
interactive experiences, your sales team
can easily review a prospect’s need, quiz
results or solution selection where they
clicked through in an experience, or
answers to assessment questions.
A Sales-Marketing Alignment Tip:
Consider creating specific interactive
pieces for sales enablement. Sit down with
your sales team and ask them about the
conversations they’re having. What are
buyers looking for, and what content pieces
will serve to solve those problems most
effectively?
