Teradata Interactive is offering its strategic marketing consulting, creative experience and campaign execution services for digital marketers globally. From strategic planning and creative concepting to pre- and post-sales nurturing, analytics, and optimisation, integrated solutions are built on proven demand generation strategies and industry best practices.

Services include data-driven marketing strategies, best practices-based template design, multi-channel marketing consulting, responsive design implementation, testing/optimisation programs, and deep campaign reporting and analysis.
