Malls & Retail In Store Shopping
Media2Go transforms the mall, lifestyle center, and in-store shopping experience by extending the time consumers spend in the mall or store, and capturing shoppers’ attention with promotions, coupons, and in-store specials. Wi-Fi hotspots can be dynamically branded with advertising and messages displayed during network sign up. Bluetooth hotspots can distribute offers and coupons from stores, restaurants and movie theaters directly to shoppers’ mobile devices.
Case study: A mid-size shopping mall included a central Wi-Fi and Bluetooth hotspot. Marked by a large floor sticker at the center of the mall, it offered shoppers to enable their Bluetooth phones to receive discount coupons. On a daily basis, different stores provided discount coupons, which shoppers received directly to their phone.
Coffee Shops & Restaurants Wi-Fi hotspots
Media2Go enables coffee shops and restaurants to leverage their Wi-Fi hotspot offering to promote brands, offer coupons, or call attention to different social/environmental campaigns. While users login to connect, selected content is delivered. For multi-location chains, a remote, web-base control panel enables controlling all hotspots and displaying different content.
Case study: A large coffee shop located in a financial district had an up-scale clientele that was an attractive target for a foreign exchange (forex) trading company. Through a Media2Go Wi-Fi/Bluetooth hotspot,coffee shop clientswere exposed to a promotional movie offering an Asus notebook for joining the Forex company. The same promotional message was delivered via Bluetooth to users with regular phones
Events Generate Buzz
Whether indoor or outdoor, Media2Go can boost the excitement and success of any event with Wi-Fi & Bluetooth hotspots that enhance brands, deliver contextual content, and generate buzz. For outdoor events, Media2Go offers portable, battery-powered hotspots that can be carried by brand ambassadors. You can deliver video, MP3 music, ringtones, or branded applications via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to mobile devices in any setting. Media2Go has been deployed in a range of events such as music festivals, museum openings, sporting events, fashion shows, business and academic events.
Case study: A Coca Cola sponsored music village was covered with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth hotspots. Teenagers were offered 16 different messages (video, audio, screen savers) for free download, which strengthened the Coca Cola brand. Within the 5-day event, more than 30K users were exposed to messages, out of a total of 90K users that were identified.
Bars & Nightclubs Advertising messages
While engaged in leisure activities, consumers can be targeted with content such as quizzes or contests. Engaging consumers with such content keeps clients a longer time on the premises, and strengthens your brand.
Case study: To drive traffic into bars and encourage people to try its new beer, Coors ran a Bluetooth-based proximity marketing coupon campaign. Bar visitors were prompted to enable Bluetooth on their mobile phones to get a Coors-branded quiz for a chance to win a free Carling beer.
Airports Captivated audience
With travelers spending time waiting for flights, an airport is an ideal ground for location based marketing campaigns. Using combined Wi-Fi & Bluetooth hotspots, a range of messages and promotional content can be delivered directly to travelers’ mobile devices, within various locations within the airport. This may include: • Promotional content related to stores, restaurants, or duty-free
offers • Travel-related information such as queue time, gates, departures,
arrivals, delays, weather, car parking, public transportation, etc.
Case study: A fast food chain used a Bluetooth-enabled billboard within an airport to offer passenger’s a discount coupon to be downloaded to their phones. This generated traffic to the fast food branch located in a quiet area of the airport.
