Quotes from Isabelle Papoulias:

“Interactive content is content that allows for navigation that helps create a very constant experience for the buyer, ultimately.”

“It’s interactivity of the service of creating a highly engaging and custom consumption experience that really meets the needs of the buyer.”

“Not only does it make for a more enjoyable experience, but I think in a remote world especially, there is an aspect of edutainment.”

“So much of the buyer journey now is digital without a live person, without a rep that I know I’m definitely feeling the pressure of content needing to, call it, sell harder on its own.”
