Audio added to digital brochures
Consumers who download digital brochures will now be entertained with music, sales pitches or commentary following a development from Digital-Brochures.
The company, which won a TravelMole web award for best web-based technology site, can incorporate audio files alongside text and images.
Digital-Brochures sales and marketing director, Les Csonge told TravelMole: “The audio is a small step for us to get towards offering full video streaming which is what everyone is trying to do. The video streaming works already, but only with broadband, and most UK users don’t have broadband – the majority still have a 56K modem.”
The audio files can be sent to Digital-Brochures on a CD or emailed as a wav, wma or mpeg file.
As part of the launch, Digital-Brochures is offering to set up, free of charge, audio to accompany a digital brochure on orders taken during August. The company can also convert an existing printed brochures or pdfs, produce digital brochures from a website, or design one from scratch.
