"Marketing collateral, in marketing and sales, is the collection of media used to support the sales of a product or service. These sales aids are intended to make the sales effort easier and more effective.[1] The brand of the company usually presents itself by way of its collateral to enhance its brand.

The production of marketing collateral is important in any business' marketing communication plan.

Common examples include:

* Sales brochures and other printed product information (e.g. Z-CARD)
* Visual aids used in sales presentations
* Web content
* Sales scripts
* Demonstration scripts
* Product data sheets
* Product white papers

Marketing collateral differs from advertising in that it is used later in the sales cycle, usually when a prospective purchaser has been identified and sales staff are making contact with them."

"What is DCM?

In its most productive state, DCM is a web-based application that replicates the traditional collaterals development process. The creative process, the actual design of the material, remains the same. For instance, a Quark document incorporating all of the required corporate and brand elements/mandates, photography and artwork, copy, legal disclaimers, etc., is prepared. However, areas are reserved for personalization at the local level by sales reps, dealers, distributors…anybody who uses the materials as an information or sales aid. Corporate marketing strategy, built into the web-based software, determines which users are permitted what degree of personalization and content flexibility. This could apply to photos and copy, or simply dealer name and address. Since it operates off of internet-based software, there is no exponential charge for increased use, unlike traditional printing where the cost increases with the size of the print run. The up-front cost is in developing the software that drives the DCM process and makes it accessible to its users in a user-friendly fashion via web access.

The most common users of DCM today are printers, fearful of a declining market for traditional printing, who are wisely offering the service to their customers. For the marketer, DCM capability can be acquired as a service through a provider/vendor such as a printer or from suppliers of software technology such as JG Sullivan Interactive (www.jgsullivan.com), Digital Marketing (www.dmarketing.com), and Progressive Impressions International (www.whateverittakes.com). Set-up fees are charged to the marketer to get the system up and running and for initial programming development. There can also be additional fees for monthly hosting (management of the digital assets e.g., the collateral itself, and maintenance, e.g. document storage. The client then forwards the file to a printer of choice for output (Kinko's for example). More sophisticated marketers bring the technology in-house where they can print and distribute at will."

ça revient un peu au même : je crois que c'est la gestion qui est interactive (les dealers peuventmodifier/personnaliser la documentation officielle). Mais le résultat est que les documents deviennent interactifs d'une certaine façon, sauf pour le client bien sûr.
