Thinking about Bluetooth advertising? Consider these great uses of Bluetooth marketing for a variety of businesses.

1) Radio stations. We’ve all heard remote broadcasts at car dealerships. Imagine a radio station booking additional revenue by offering to broadcast on-site Bluetooth alerts about the hottest vehicles. Suddenly the dealership is generating leads that they otherwise may not get, because most folks don’t want to talk to a salesperson and just want the info on the car(s) they’re interested in.

2) Grocery stores, coffee shops, bookstores (basically any retail outlet). Why aren’t you using Bluetooth to broadcast coupons, new merchandise, this week’s specials, and so much more? Get a long-range dongle, buy some software, and amaze your customers with your cool factor and with the deals you’re advertising.

3) Got an oil change yesterday. Now wondering why they’re not setting themselves apart from the other oil change joint right across the street, by using Bluetooth to broadcast their car repair specials.

4) Concerts. Use Bluetooth to sell band merchandise right over the phone, to be mailed or picked up at the table in the back. Bluetooth broadcast fan club subscriptions, album info, upcoming events, etc.

5) Movie theaters. Bluetooth snack bar specials and opt-ins for your frequent movie watcher club.

Add to the above Bluetooth uses for banks, at race tracks, and more and you begin to realize that the Bluetooth possibilities are only limited by your imagination. Of course, best practices do apply–such as ensuring every transmission is permission-based and keeping file sizes small.

Perhaps the best news for any business or non-profit considering Bluetooth advertising, is that hardware & software costs are coming down significantly. One such example is Proxiblaster’s Bluecast box–a self-contained campaign manager/transmitter, which simply needs a power source to run and can be remotely programmed over any web connection.

India is fast becoming a hot market for Bluetooth advertising. We’ve previously reported on Bluetooth marketing at the Harry’s Bar & Casino chain. Now comes news of Bluetooth advertising at Hindu temples.

While you may not agree with the religious content they’re offering, don’t let that stop you from utilizing Bluetooth broadcasting at your church.

No, you don’t need to jump off the cliff into inauthenticity by hawking religion on people’s cell phones. Yes, your church can provide helpful and potentially life-changing content via Bluetooth.

If your church campus is comprised of several buildings or if each section of your main building serves a different purpose–educational, children’s ministry and otherwise–imagine Bluetoothing church maps and intro videos to visitors. You could also use Bluetooth to facilitate service signups at ministry fairs and other gatherings.

In fact, if your congregation plays host to community events, you could reach many unchurched folks with low-key intro videos and service times via Bluetooth. Just advertise the availability of content via simple print signage, through your closed circuit TV network or by some other means.

There is no denying that telecommunications is and will continue to be part of the world economy. In fact, companies, such as Wal-mart, Amazon and others, have used telecommunications to build global empires. As technological advancement continues to improve the telecom industry, revenues will continue to rise because of it. Bluetooth is one such advancement. Out of bluetooth connectivity comes bluetooth marketing.

Mobile marketing has become increasingly popular as an advertising channel. While traditional advertising campaigns, such as television advertising or magazine advertising, have a wider reach, it is so costly and does not guarantee attention. This system capitalizes on what most people have in common and that is cellphones. Its hard to ignore a tone for incoming calls, even the silent mode with vibrate on does its wonders on getting the users attention. One key feature of the Bluetooth Marketing Software is allowing the consumer to opt in and opt out of the service at any time.

Lets say you are an affiliate and you setup the broadcaster in a high traffic area like busy intersections or crowded parks, the broadcaster will continuously scan for the presence of Bluetooth enabled mobile devices. As soon as someone comes within range with their Bluetooth enabled mobile device, the server sends a message to the user’s phone, asking if they wish to get free content from the dealership. If the user agrees by pressing ‘Yes’ on their phone, the content is sent immediately. If the user declines, the server remembers this and won’t ask the same user again in the future.

Bluetooth is also radio-based technology and therefore broadcasting via bluetooth is free of charge. This allows you to advertise your content repeatedly increasing coverage and sales potential at the same time. You save a lot compared to the traditional advertising.

How to become an affiliate

What’s needed are just the Bluetooth Marketing Software ($499.99 – Affiliate fee included) and a 300-meter broadcaster unit with dongles ($1500). Click this link to get started today.

Return of investment

Keeping with the example, lets see how we can make money with bluetooth advertising. You can either earn money by delivering adverts. You can be paid for the number of ads delivered – say $1.00 per ad delivered during a football game. Imagine how many fans watch a football game and think about your income potential. You can also split the advertisers’ revenues generated by your bluetooth marketing system. Say you broadcasted a discount coupon for a combo meal at the nearby food store. Right after the game, football fans went to the store and claimed their coupon. So the storeowner gave you 50% commission for bringing those customers in. Now, that’s a lot.

Another approach to earning money is by way of saving money thru broadcasting your own adverts. Instead of paying thousands of precious dollars to traditional advertisers, you can broadcast your customized content – anytime and anywhere. There are many ways to return your investment but one thing is certain – it returns fast.

Bluetooth advertising is becoming more and more popular and fast becoming the most cost effective way of getting the message out. Companies around the world, including a number of major multi nationals, are investing their budget in proximity marketing.

However beaming adverts to prospective customers is only one use for these boxes. These are now being used for a number of other purposes

Recruitment

In the UK, the army and RAF careers are using bluetooth to get the message to their potential recruits. They target an age range that have the best chance of having bluetooth enabled and have huge success rates with it, sending GIF’s to entice people into careers offices.

Police

Major UK police forces are harnessing the power of proximity to get serious messages across. From securing valuables out of sight in cars to serious missing person cases, bluetooth ads can get a message to many people in targeted area very quickly. A box located at the site of an incident can appeal for witnesses and people who come to the same spot again can be contacted straight away.

Councils

Local councils get public service messages to people, again with ease and for no cost. Litter campaigns, clean up after your dog or recycling advice can be sent quickly to peoples phones and get a message out so much quicker than conventional methods.

The world is waking up to the hundreds of uses for proximity advertising. What started off as a simple way to get an advertising point across could end up saving someones life. Whilst their is always a market for these to beam adverts, its clear that soon bluetooth will be used in many diverse ways to maximise its potential.

The world we live in gets easily bored and craves novelty. Smart marketers look for new ways to put a twist on old standby marketing and advertising techniques. Marketing through television and radio channels has been done to death and has more nuisance value than anything else as far as the audience is concerned.

For marketers seeking new ways and means to expand their reach anywhere their prospects are — the future is here. Smart marketers and advertisers create a personal touch in their ad campaigns. This is one of the reasons why mobile advertising is rapidly increasing in popularity as an effective marketing tool. And the astonishing use of mobile devices leveraged this trend.

There are over 1.5 billion mobile phone users worldwide according to the International Telecommunications Union with the highest growth percentage coming from emerging economies like China, Russia and India. The US has about 200 million mobile subscribers. Smart marketers are tapping into the potential to reach their prospects as they’re on the move. Mobile devices are practically a permanent attachment for people under age 34.

Mobile Advertising is delivered in a number of formats. Text messaging, mobile internet advertising and mobile radio advertising are some of the common advertising formats. Out of these, text messaging (SMS) is the most widely used format.

According to the joint Mobile Advertising Report (MAR) released by Limbo and GfK Technology, text message usage is about 74% in India, 48% in the UK and 22% in the US. Projections predict in the near future mobile internet advertising will surpass text message advertising (FierceWireless).

In June 2008, Nokia launched the Nokia Advertising Alliance that aims to make mobile advertising easier for advertisers. This particular program includes services like providing marketing strategies, geographic targeting and related technologies to enhance customer captivation. Now advertisers can work in conjunction with Nokia to expand the coverage of mobile advertising with emerging mobile technologies for more powerful ad promotions.

The best part about mobile marketing is mobile devices are more heavily used than traditional PCs. Mobile advertisements are delivered to the customer no matter where they are. Even with these advantages, mobile advertising is still in its “early adopter” stages with a long way to go. The main obstacles are in the form of data tariff structures, handset and mobile internet interactivity and quality of subject matter.

Like the early days of the Internet, there are more advertisers than quality content. Add to that an acute lack of tools to assess the performance of mobile ad campaigns. Even though most of these difficulties will be solved in the future, mobile advertising will still face competition from other advertising and marketing methods. Google, Microsoft and Nokia are the prominent players in mobile advertising. The future holds a huge potential in terms of revenues from mobile advertising.

According to a report released by Informa Telecoms & Media, it is estimated that mobile advertising will generate USD 1.72 billion in 2008 and will rise to USD 12 billion in 2013. The report also advocates the use of banner ads as an effective tool in mobile advertising. The report highlights the significance of focusing on the long run and not the short term stumbling blocks.

Yahoo jumped on the bandwagon in June 2008 when it partnered with Publicis to integrate Publicis mobile advertising agency (PhoneValley) with Yahoo’s mobile developer platform language (Blueprint). The partnership is aimed at developing brands, reaching customers and maximizing sales through new techniques. It also aims to initiate cutting edge advertising strategies in the future.

Since the potential market for mobile advertising is huge, a few companies are exploring new horizons and expanding in new territory. For example, Millenial Media Inc., is venturing into Europe, Africa and the Middle East. Millenial develops ads for cell-phones and mobiles. Its CEO Paul Palmieri says “There is a tremendous growth opportunity for mobile advertising on a global basis, as evidenced by a rich and active mobile direct marketing industry, as well as surging demand from top brand advertisers.”

The media industry and brand advertisers are slowly catching on and making use of mobile advertising to increase market penetration. Mobile advertising has added support from applications like ringtones and pictures. Bluetooth advertising is also growing in popularity. Here, a company can advertise its products or services over a fixed area.

The three major search engines: Yahoo, Google and Microsoft have already realized the potential and the possibilities of the mobile advertising market. MSN uses banner ads on MSN mobile pages. Earlier MSN’s mobile advertising was confined to countries like France, Japan, Spain and UK. Recently it expanded coverage to include the US. Google also launched mobile image ads. When the cell phone browser is opened these image ads are displayed on the screen. However, the ad size is much smaller as compared to those for web pages. These image ads are connected to a web page and they follow the price-per-click model Google AdWords uses.

Mobile Advertising is one of best forms of mass medium advertising. It’s personal, and has a wider reach than any other form of advertising. It’s still early to comment on exactly how big or how successful it will prove to be. However, by all indicators “the future’s so bright you gotta wear shades.”

The predictions about the future revenues generated through mobile advertising optimistic. A brand advertiser, a mobile advertising company and the consumer will have different perceptions of mobile advertising. However, mobile advertising also comes with its fair share of drawbacks. Mobile ads are sometimes viewed as another form of spam and the advertisers as spammers. To resolve this issue, there are programs developed to give subscribers free talk-time for performing certain activities related to viewing ads. As far as the opinions of consumers are concerned, it’s a mixed bag. This is because people are simply not accustomed to being paid to view ads. Even if they are paid to view them, many still view the ads as a nuisance. It doesn’t make sense for the advertiser to pay a consumer to view ads if there are no conversions.
