Today we announced a fun, very unique mobile promotion with Fugate Enterprises, one of the top 10 franchisees in the Pizza Hut, Blockbuster and Taco Bell chain system. In collaboration with United Marketing Communications, we are managing a mobile voting competition in which Western Kentucky University students get to weigh-in about whether a Taco Bell or Pizza Hut will be built near campus:
Taco Bell & Pizza Hut to go Head-to-Head at Western Kentucky University
Fugate Enterprises Launches First-of-its-Kind Mobile Voting Campaign, Allowing Students to Decide Which Restaurant will be Built Near the WKU Campus
Kansas City, MO, April 6, 2010 – Fugate Enterprises, one of the top 10 franchisees of Pizza Hut and Taco Bell, today announced the launch of its mobile voting promotion in which the students of Western Kentucky University have a say regarding whether a Taco Bell or Pizza Hut will be built near campus. From April 1st through April 17th, WKU students are able to cast their votes by texting WKU4 PH (Pizza Hut) or WKU4 TB (Taco Bell) to 32075.
“We have been operating 270 Pizza Huts and Taco Bells for over 30 years. This time, we wanted to let the community we will be serving choose which particular one they want,” said Sergio Roman, Marketing Director of Fugate Enterprises. “This will be a fun, unique way for us to promote our new location, as well as give the students the opportunity to voice what they prefer via the medium that would allow the best direct interaction- mobile.”
Fugate will be promoting the campaign to WKU students through marketing initiatives provided by United Marketing Communications (UMC), a leading provider of marketing services specializing in the restaurant and food services industry. Banners announcing the voting campaign will be displayed at the WKU vs. South Alabama baseball game April 9th, as well as at the WKU vs. Louisville baseball game on April 14th. Giveaways that feature printed information about the promotion will also help notify the students about their chance to vote.
Moblico Solutions, a provider of integrated mobile offerings that support and extend customer relationships, is managing the voting process for the Fugate WKU competition. WKU students can vote April 1st through April 17th. Once a vote is cast, a confirmation message is sent back indicating that a vote of “PH” or “TB” was recorded. Competition results will be announced by the end of April.
I can’t wait to see who wins this ground-breaking (both literal and figurative!!) competition! Good luck to both brands.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA, November 5, 2008 – CogniSign, the worldwide leader in image and video search and contextual advertising technology, today announced that it has named Pierre Barbeau, CEO of Moblico (The Mobile Life Company), to its board of advisors. The company will be drawing upon the former Sprint executive and recognized mobile industry expert, whose achievements include launching the Sprint Picture Mail service, to help drive its growth and global market expansion. This appointment follows the recent formation of CogniSign Asia Pacific, headquartered in Tokyo.
These two milestone developments build upon CogniSign’s strong momentum. With
its award-winning Intelligent Image Recognition Technology, which solves the
problems in image and video search and advertising that are unique to the small
screen, the company was one of only three emerging market leaders selected by
InfoTrends to be highlighted during the two day Digital Imaging Conference 2008 in
Burlingame, CA.
“We are pleased to have Pierre as a part of our advisory board as we bring this
ground-breaking technology to the global market,” said Bryan Calkins, CEO of
CogniSign. “Our newly patented trajectory technology brings the most accurate
search and ad results to the very top. This is how Google won the battle for market
dominance in the text based world, and CogniSign is well positioned to do the same
for image and video search and ad targeting.”
“In the post iPhone world, both image and video content are becoming very
pervasive on mobile platforms,” said Pierre Barbeau. “With the massive potential of
mobile audiences, advertisers will rush to embrace new technology platforms that
can make advertising more engaging and targeted. The increased consumption of
image and video content on mobile devices require ad targeting solutions that can
decipher what a viewer is really experiencing at any particular moment. I am looking
forward to assisting CogniSign as they address this market need.”
