Instead of using only text to transmit an idea, interactive content makes the viewer part of the conversation using things like animated images, internet polls, and streaming video. Coke-a-Cola grabbed this bull by the horns not too long ago with their \u201cShare a Coke\u201d campaign, for example.<\/p>\n<p>SmartInsights.com put together a great article about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.smartinsights.com\/customer-engagement\/customer-engagement-strategy\/using-interactive-content-digital-pr\/\">interactive content<\/a>, explaining what it is and why it\u2019s important if you want you\u2019re brand to get noticed.
