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.

Handset manufacturer seeks mobile developer for mutually-rewarding relationship

Mark Bridge writes:

Call me naive or call me cynical - in either case you won’t be the first - but I was a little surprised to see a strong manufacturer presence at Droidcon UK last week. I’d assumed that manufacturers might be inclined to pick a popular operating system and then just start making devices.

App developers can still make money from mobile advertising

Mark Bridge writes:

When I was a youngster, evangelists preached the gospel. Not the gospel according to Steve Jobs, Bart Simpson or Oprah Winfrey. The gospel of Jesus the Christ. That was all. That’s what the word meant.

In recent years, the word ‘evangelist’ has evolved to gain a wider meaning. We have Product evangelists. Customer evangelists. Developer evangelists. Technology evangelists. Even Word of Mouth evangelists (which sounds rather like being an ‘evangelism evangelist’, I reckon). Anyway, I’m sure you get the picture.

iPhone 4S dismantled and photographed

Mark Bridge writes:

The Apple iPhone 4S launches in the UK today - but the self-repair chaps at iFixit.com have already acquired one and have disassembled it. Everything seems to be very much as expected, despite suggestions that Siri might provide distractions along the lines of “Number five is alive - no disassemble me!”
