2ergo offers a simple way to create targeted mobile marketing campaigns

2ergo, recently in the news after developing an iPhone app for Pizza Express, has launched a new mobile marketing service for businesses. It’s called mobileDNA and gives businesses the chance to send targeted offers and vouchers to mobile phone users.

The service uses 2ergo’s database of ten million opted-in mobile phone users from the UK. This contains age, interests and location information along with data from the users’ mobile behaviour and transactions.

As a result, campaigns can be created in days - and without participating companies needing to make any major investment in infrastructure.

John Stevens, group managing director of 2ergo, said “Our mobile campaign package is a world first – marketers not only have access and insight into 10m mobile phone users, but also the ability to set up targeted, compelling mobile campaigns extremely quickly. There’s no requirement to invest in mobile infrastructure, meaning marketers feeling overwhelmed about getting their mobile strategy right now have an effective, expedient way of targeting prospective customers, and securing their long-term loyalty.”

To launch the new service, 2ergo has created a set of tips for marketers who want to launch an effective and targeted mobile campaign. The guide can be downloaded from http://mailshot.2ergo.com/acquisitionguide

This is interesting. The most important part of a mobile campaign is to get your customers to opt-in to YOUR database. Not to send messages to a random opt in list.

Last week at The Fonecast: 12th March 2012

Mark Bridge writes:

It’s all gone a bit quiet. Is it the calm after the Mobile World Congress storm... or is it the knowledge that an Apple announcement will push anything else out of the headlines, even before the product itself has been revealed?

Either way, the last seven days have had significantly fewer news stories than the beginning of the month. But that’s not to say they’ve been completely news-free.

Hacking a smartphone by using differential power analysis

Mark Bridge writes:

Mobile security always seems to be on the agenda – but one of the companies demonstrating its services at Mobile World Congress 2012 had a particularly stark warning.

Cryptography Research was demonstrating what’s called differential power analysis or side-channel analysis, which can be used to reveal encrypted information from a smartphone or tablet without ever needing to get hold of the device.

Mobile World Congress is over for another year. Also gone is the mobile industry’s sudden obsession with public transport and student protests in Barcelona. But away from the local news, what’s been going on?

Windows 8 – 2012’s Biggest Mobile Milestone

James Rosewell writes:

Microsoft’s Windows 8 announcement today is as significant to the mobile industry as Apple’s iPad launch 2 years ago. Windows 8 will work on tablets, ultra books, desktops, laptops and 82” big screens. Not only that but it’ll support touch on all these devices.

“We're in a world where tablets are about touch, and PCs are about keyboard. We're changing those assumptions” Steven Sinofsky President, Windows and Windows Live Division says.
