Customer FAQs

What is interactive content?

Our interactive content pieces are fully customizable. The theme, logo, background image, questions, sections, all the text, call to action, and the final result can be customized to fit your use case. The Outgrow builder is very intuitive to use. You can choose from different inputs. Interactive content is a type of experience that engages your prospects by involving them in some sort of action. It's more than just passively consuming media, it's an immersive and engaging way of interacting with your audience. By setting up a two-way dialogue, interactive content adds value to your consumers and provides them with accurate, real-time results.

How does interactive content apply to my business?

Many marketers have realized the importance of engaging prospects instead of just selling to them, and they're increasingly using interactive content in their inbound marketing efforts. Even B2B marketers are starting to use interactive tools like calculators, quizzes, polls, and assessments to start conversations and add value for their buyers. Companies of all sizes, from SMBs to large enterprises like EMC, Cisco, Atmel, and Oracle, are using interactive content to add value for their customers.

What is the difference between a calculator and a quiz?

The main difference between a calculator and a quiz is that calculators use numerical formulas to show results, while quizzes use outcome mapping. With quizzes, you have outcomes mapped to different options, and the most selected outcome is shown as the final result. Calculators, on the other hand, have multiple results based on the chosen input.

Who owns the content?

You have complete ownership of the content you create. We simply provide a platform and add the Outgrow watermark to the content piece you create, which can be turned off anytime based on the plan you've chosen.

I am already using Google Analytics? Can I continue using it for content analytics as well?

Yes, it's possible to add your Google Analytics tracking ID to your calculator or quiz. To do this, you need to follow these steps - Go to Configure > General & SEO Settings > Google Analytics Tracking ID. By adding your tracking ID, you can keep track of user behavior and other events on your calculator or quiz using Google Analytics.

Will you build a content piece for me?

We're happy to help! Please feel free to contact your account manager or any customer success representative whenever you need assistance in creating an experience.

What happens if I hit the max leads/visits?

When your allocated quota for leads and visits is exhausted, we will send you a polite reminder to buy an add-on in order to continue tracking leads and visits for the given period. Don't worry, all your content pieces will still be accessible in this case; only the analytics tracking and integrations will halt till you buy the add-on.
