Abstract: A system and method for allowing a marketing entity or client to deliver marketing information on a product or service to a target group of consumers. The marketing entity can generate or modify parameters defining at least a part of a consumer interface and these can be associated with consumer data so that a user interface is associated with a target group of consumers. The target group of consumers can then be notified of the existence of the interface. This can be facilitated either by the automatic generation of the notification e.g. by e-mail, fax, or SMS message, or by the generation of contact information for the consumers to allow manual notification e.g. mail, telephone call or fax. The consumers are then able to access the interface and gain access to the information on a product or service. The consumer interface can comprise static information, which is dynamically generated on a request from a consumer and can comprise dynamic information, such as multimedia data.
