Mobile Marketing
As TiVo, “banner blindness,” satellite radio, and other threats to traditional marketing mediums spring up everywhere, Mobile Marketing is exploding in the US with parabolic growth and phenomenal consumer response rates. Companies with existing opt-in databases can utilize our powerful software tools to deliver targeted promotional messages, special offers/coupons, and other text or rich multimedia based messages to existing opt-in lists. Our software tools include our industry leading, real-time analytics modules complete with geographical statistics, mapping, and both keyword and subscriber-based reporting tools.
Corporate Communication
Our SMS Workgroups application enables small business or divisions of larger businesses to send peer-to-group and application-to-group messages and scheduled reminders in a very user friendly manner. Some of the countries largest corporations are using this technology to facilitate better communications and information flow within Sales, Operations, IT, Customer Support, and other divisions. In a typical SMS Workgroups configuration, each “Workgroup” is given a keyword (ie; SALES) and all members of that Workgroup are instructed to text the keyword to join. When a member wants to send out a text message to the entire Workgroup, he simply texts the keyword followed by his message (ie; SALES Hi Sales Team). In a more advanced form of SMS Workgroups, applications in addition to people can be attached to the Workgroup in order to create a more information rich communications environment. For example, members of a sales team can receive notification of a new lead, or support staff notified of an emergency-level trouble ticket, or IT/Network staff notified of a server or network outage. Adding an SMS supplement to email alerts has many benefits, as SMS messages cannot get “lost in the crowd,” are supported by virtually all mobile phones, and bypass the carrier data networks which are slow and unreliable (yet relied upon by most mobile e-mail solutions).
Client Notification System
Businesses can integrate our mobile messaging infrastructure with existing e-mail and/or phone-based client notification systems to enhance the reliability and effectiveness of such systems. Examples for client notification applications include:
> Appointment Reminders
> Maintenance Reminders
> Low Balance Alerts
> Portfolio Alerts
> Emergency Outages
> Much More!
Remote Database Query
Using our simple gateway API’s, businesses can instantly “mobilize” their existing databases for internal or external use. Link the mobile phones of your sales, ops, and IT staff with critical corporate databases such as CRM, pricing tables, product information, technical information, and others. For example, to query for the latest price of a product with a product ID # of 4523, a field sales agent could quickly send a text message with the words “PRICE 4523”. Within seconds, the sales agent would receive the price of product 4523 on his mobile phone. Remote Database Query allows coporations to quickly and painlessly mobilize existing databases, including support for both text and binary content via WAP Push.
Trade Shows & Corporate Events
Many of the consumer-oriented campaigns mentioned in the Consumers section can be used as a promotional tool to generate buzz, branding, and a rapid opt-in database at trade shows and corporate events.. Our clients have launched innovative mobile campaigns at events, including Text-to-Win, SMS Voting, and Reverse Auction campaigns with interesting prizes and branding opportunities. By default, anybody who participates in your promotional mobile campaign at a trade show will become part of your opt-in list of mobile phone numbers, making interactive SMS a powerful lead generation tool.
SMS Property Listing
The real-estate community in the US is fast embracing SMS Property Listings, a type of mobile campaign which enables potential home-buyers to receive instant information and photos of a property for sale when passing by the property. In a typical configuration, the realtor places instructions on the “for sale” sign of a property. End-users send a text message with a keyword (Ie HOUSE123) and are immediately sent the information back to their phone. Our platform can be configured to send back photos and even video to potential home buyers, and to notify the realtor via e-mail every time a new lead comes in.
Desktop Application Plug-Ins
We have created customized SMS and MMS/WAP plug-ins for MS Outlook, ACT, Salesforce, Sonus PSX, Apache, and other major applications with third party plug-in support. These plug-ins will instantly SMS-enable your desktop application via standard HTTP communication with our mobile gateways.
