COSTA MESA, Calif. June 11, 2008 -- Textopoly, Inc., an interactive marketing agency that focuses
on
mobile/SMS branded applications and campaigns for various consumer
industries, today announced it is launching mo:base, a fully
customized and branded widget that aggregates opt-in mobile numbers and
enables brands to advertise to a mass audience on their mobile with the
click of a button.
mo:base is a snippet of code that can be installed and executed on any
HTML-based web page or email. The widget features allows users to enter
their mobile phone number to receive fan news, alerts, coupons or other
calls to action. The widget can be customized with the brand’s
logo and placed anywhere on the brand’s
website or even in their email. Only those consumers who opt-in to
receive messages from the brand will receive messages and users always
have an opportunity to opt out instantly.
mo:base maintains the entire mobile messaging infrastructure including
aggregating opt-in mobile phone numbers, entering them into databases,
transmitting SMS via www.mobase.mobi and issuing reports. All the brand has to do is compose a message,
select a database and press a button to instantly communicate or
advertise to their consumer.
“mo:base transforms the complex process of
purchasing and aggregating short codes, aggregating mobile numbers,
building databases and transmitting SMS into a simple one-click
operation,” said Naushad Huda, CEO of
Textopoly. “mo:base allows for the
distribution via mobile of branded content and allows instant
communication between brand and consumer.”
One of the first brands to use the mo:base widget on their website is
New York City’s 2008 River to River Festival.
It plans to send registered attendees real-time updates about
performances, venue changes, traffic alerts and other valuable
information in real time.
Kinetic Mobile, a leading out-of-home media agency that creates mobile
media campaigns for the world’s leading
brands, is another company that relies on Textopoly to deliver unique
and feasible creative ideas to their client base. “In
Textopoly we have a partner whom we trust to help execute outlined
deliverables in a quick, precise and professional way,”
stated Ben Kennedy, director of business development for Kinetic Mobile. “They
consistently provide well thought-through concepts that permeate with
the campaign objectives.”
Monthly costs for mo:base include the customized widget, the complete
mobile messaging infrastructure, unlimited incoming messages and
pro-rated outgoing message costs. In addition, mo:base will support all
international GSM phones by the end of Q3.
