Knotice Gets Personal With New Marketing Software for Email, Web and Mobile Devices
Knotice's Concentri Platform Allows Marketers to Deliver Personally Relevant Messages to Each Consumer, Strengthening Brand Ties and Creating a Competitive Edge
AKRON, Ohio, June 26 / -- Knotice Ltd., today announced the industry's first software solution for Personal Relevance Marketing (PRM). Knotice's PRM platform Concentri allows marketers to easily create and manage marketing campaigns from a central console that delivers consistent messaging to each consumer over email, Web or mobile channels. Concentri builds on Knotice's success in permission email and Web marketing and adds support for marketing to mobile devices.
PRM is the next generation in marketing communications. By tailoring messages for individual consumers based on their own preferences, over multiple marketing media, companies can create stronger brand relationships and increase competitive advantage.
Forward-thinking marketers have been looking for a way to maintain brand awareness in the current media landscape. Consumers today are tuning out traditional forms of marketing. They have shorter attention spans, new tools to filter unwanted advertising, and less patience for companies who don't respect their preferences. Companies are beginning to market where their consumers prefer -- email, Web and mobile devices have become marketing channels.
The key to marketing over interactive media such as mobile or email is relevancy. Studies have shown that relevant marketing is extremely effective. In fact, 60% of immediate purchases from email are driven by a high degree of relevancy. (Jupiter Research, May 2005)
Knotice's Concentri software provides marketers with a system for taking advantage of new media channels and at the same time maintaining relevant brand messaging across all media. Consumers receive the same, relevant messages through email, SMS or a Web site.
"A marketer's goal is to connect with consumers on a personal level, with messaging that speaks specifically to that consumer," said Sam Gerace, Founder of interactive marketing pioneer BeFree. "Interactive channels like mobile phones and the Web fulfill that promise, but managing all the personal variables to create relevant and consistent messages is a marketing nightmare. Knotice's platform is one of the most innovative and easy to use software solutions I've seen that allows marketers to reach the consumer at a personal level. It handles the complex technical details so marketers can concentrate on the creative and not the technology delivering it."
Knotice PRM in Action
Personally Relevant Marketing is one-step beyond opt-in marketing. With simple preference information, a company can create the kind of personal relationship and loyalty customers have in a face to face interaction. For example, a local supermarket might offer specials to its customers each week. With Personal Relevance Marketing, a vegetarian customer would never get offers for meat products. In another example a record company might offer ring tones to a customer over their phone. With Concentri, a label could run the same campaign to both country music and hip hop music lovers without offering either the wrong type of music. Either offer could be delivered to the consumer over email, Web or their mobile phone, depending on the consumer's preference.
"The consumer is king. We're entering the age of individual marketing and big brands are racing to catch up," said Brian Deagan, CEO of Knotice. "Consumers are tuning out traditional forms of marketing and have less patience for companies who don't respect their preferences. As companies begin to move to new media like mobile as a marketing channel, their messages not only need to be permission-based but tailored to the individual. Knotice provides a way for marketers to create a one on one brand relationship with a consumer that builds loyalty and stimulates sales opportunities."
