Building Engagement: The Anatomy of a Product Match Interactive Format
What is the Product Match interactive format?
Product Match is an interactive format that asks participants questions about their preferences, tastes, and choices, then recommends products or services based on their answers.
This format is used to provide a guided selling experience on your website or app by suggesting options that match the buyer’s interests and needs. Additionally, it helps enrich your data! And this is important because keeping your data updated and accurate allows you to personalize communications and send relevant content based on user choices.
You can implement this format on your website at all times, with or without requiring a form to participate. If you do use a form, it’s recommended to offer an incentive, like a discount, to encourage the registration.

How easy is it to build a Product Match?
This is one of the simplest formats to start with gamification. No developer skills are required. The only code you’ll use is automatically generated after building the game, and you simply copy and paste it into your website or app.
If it’s your first time on the platform, you can create one in a few hours. Additionally, it integrates easily with the rest of your marketing tool stack, like CRM, CDPs or EMC.
