Connected advertising object: definition, uses and concrete examples in business

Understand what a connected advertising object is, what differentiates it from a classic goodie and why it becomes a marketing asset.

A connected advertising object is a physical medium linked to a modifiable digital experience. When scanned, the smartphone opens a web page: profile, form, video, reviews, game, catalog, appointment booking.

For a company, it's a marketing asset: it continues to speak, measure and convert long after distribution.

Simple and clear definition

A connected goodie combines three elements: a physical object (key ring, magnet, card, badge), an NFC chip or a dynamic QR code, and a web page that can be modified remotely.

No apps to install, no complexity for the end user.

Differences from a classic goodie

The classic goodie communicates once. The connected goodie communicates continuously and collects data.
