SAN
FRANCISCO – This year, Mousetrap Mobile, a member of the Mobile Technology
Association of Michigan, has partnered with Signal360 to showcase beacon
technology to attendees at the Association of Luxury Suite Directors meeting in
San Francisc
“Mousetrap
Mobile is excited to launch beacons as part of our industry leading conference
and event apps,” says Gregory Nasto, president of Royal Oak-based
Mousetrap Mobile.
As Apple continues to evolve the iBeacon protocol,
implementers of the technology such as the conference attendees have a unique
opportunity to both leverage and benefit from new proximity technologies in an
emerging market to drive real ROI, as well as help shape user response and
behavior around the tech, and in turn, how it grows. Mousetrap Mobile has always
been on the forefront of mobile technology, beacons will add new revenue
opportunities for conference and event managers with their ability to enhance
sponsor exposure and improve the guest experience.
“Is there a
more important component of the fan experience these days than the use of
Mobile devices?” sys Bill Dorsey, Chairman and Founder of ALSD. “Can you imagine
what the world would be like these days without social media?Now, Mobile devices and the technology incorporating in them are taking the
venue experience to an altogether different level. We are excited to have
Signal360 and Mousetrap Mobile showcasing this Beacon and GeoFencing technology
at this year’s 25th ALSD conference.”
The Golden
State Warriors, who recently won the 2015 NBA Championship, have seen
significant ROI across a number of use cases thanks to Signal360’s technology
and platform. In addition to involving 7 of their corporate sponsors to drive
varied beacon-based offers at games, they recouped their Signal360 platform
costs halfway through the season solely through a ‘seat-upgrade’ use case,
pinging fans at home games at the top of escalators asking if they would like
to upgrade their seats. With the end of the season, updated and impressive ROI
metrics are soon to be released that serve as a validator of the technology not
just for Sports, but for Retail as well.
For example,
the average transaction value with a beacon delivered offer in Oracle Arena’s
team store is 108 percent higher than value of a transaction without a beacon
offer in the shopping basket. Signal360 has partnered with a number of
professional sports teams across leagues ranging from the NHL to the NBA and
with that will be able to power a variety of use cases in their upcoming
seasons, including in their arenas’ Suite and Club areas. Powering the success
of this application, Signal360 employs the use of iBeacon, as a certified Apple
iBeacon partner, Bluetooth Smart for Android, and in conjunction, its
proprietary and patented Sonic Audio technology to engage with smart-devices that
may not have a Bluetooth 4.0 capability and/or have their Bluetooth turned on,
ensuring that the maximum number of attendees are able to engage in the
experience.
Proximity marketing and the use of beacons to
deliver content has been growing in popularity from awareness in the news with
several high profile announcements.
“The ALSD app was integrated and deployed with our
system in an hour. The proximity marketing industry is heating up with lots of
announcements of pending deals – Signal360 is the only company in production at
scale because we understand what being enterprise-ready means and collaborate
with strong partners like Mousetrap,” says Alex Bell, CEO and Founder of
Signal360.
