This article analyses some of the most successful mobile marketing campaigns ever. Mobile publicity is a very sensitive form of digital promotion because it may have drastically adverse results. These campaigns made it good though!
Some mobile marketing campaigns are
by far more successful than others. There are various dynamics in the game;
product, presentation, interactivity, and management. But the powerful impact
of these particular promotion cases was because of well utilized mobile
marketing strategies. The entire market research and delivery process of these
campaigns were so perfect and well received by the masses, that success came
naturally.
It’s no easy job getting success
with phone promotion. In fact, mobile marketing is perhaps the most difficult
field of advertising and publicity. If people do not receive your branding
message in the right view, it could be publicity disaster! Your brand may end
up with a very bad reputation indeed. You can relate to this when annoying text
messages and pop ups keep irritating you while you are using your device. So
what was different about these special cases? About everything! Here are the
winners –
Nike: The Times Square billboard and mobile promotion from Nike was
the biggest phone promotion hit ever. It involved people texting in their
desired models and designs, where the winning designs would get a free pair of
IDs. The result, Nike gave away 3000 pairs of new shoes, but earned both
publicity and gauged the market requirements. They had hundreds of new designs
to work with and received a great buzz from people about their brand!
Dove: Using elderly models is one thing, using them on mobile
campaigns in yet another! Dove had great success with their ‘Campaign for Real
Beauty’ when five elderly models were up on the billboard and passersby could
rate them between ‘wrinkled’ and ‘wonderful’ in five grades. The results of the
poll were set out live on the flicker – a huge success!
Pontiac G6: When the camera phone G6 was launched by Pontiac, it
asked people to click photos of G6s on the streets and thus enter a $ 1,000,000
draw! Well, with a million dollars at stake, people were hunting and buying G6s
like crazy! Pontiac sales soared well above the competition (and the prize
money many times over) within weeks.
American Express: When this all too well recognized banking giant
sponsored the Wimbledon, a billboard boldly advertised that people could get
free tickets for the next day if they could correctly predict the winner of
that day. Texts about the Wimbledon went viral and the company received more
responses than ever expected. People messaged all 14 days, and the tickets kept
coming to the winners!
Axe!: The deodorant cosmetics brand used some of the best mobile
marketing strategies and kept gaining success with phone marketing. They had
special ringtones, customized voice call messages, wake up calls, and what not!
Plenty of males (and females) found Axe! phone promotions most exciting.
These were the top phone
promotion campaigns to ever hit the market. Some of these greatly helped the
companies brand certain goods or their brand USPs to a large number of
consumers. Simple and yet intricate, mobile
marketing can be effectively used for branding, you just have to be
innovative!
