Introduction

The shift of static business-to-consumer and business-to-business Web sites to interactive ones has paved the way for increased interactivity between businesses, their customers and prospects. New Web technologies mean that companies can now deliver more engaging, relevant and meaningful experiences for consumers who, in turn, are more demanding and have higher expectations of what they can do online. Indeed, they have changed how they use the Web (and multimedia channels) by being increasingly more knowledgeable, more vocal and more engaged online.
We realise that organisations now address interactive channels to serve consumers better. Interactive Marketing is not merely online marketing, rather, it is the evolving trend which involves a ‘conversation’ with the customer; the company ‘remembering’ how the consumer has responded and then readdressing the customer in a way that is tailored from the results of that conversation.
This issue examines the traditional model of purchasing behaviour (AIDAS: Awareness, Interest, Desire, Action and Satisfaction) and applies this model to the steps that organisations need to take to interact with online visitors at each stage.
