Retailers concerned about missing valuable mobile Christmas sales now have the ability to target 10 million mobile phone users with tailored offers and promotions within days.

Last year 22% of online users accessed the internet on their phones over Christmas Day and Boxing Day (econsultancy). 2ergo is predicting that Boxing Day 2011 will be the biggest day ever for m-commerce, with 30% of consumers making a mobile purchase.

The company is launching its mobileDNA service as part of a mobile campaign package to help retailers that do not yet have a mobile strategy to get mobile advertising campaigns up and running to target shoppers in the run up to Christmas. The service has been built around 2ergo’s proprietary database of 10m opt-in UK cross-network mobile phone users, further enriched with information from users’ mobile behaviour and transactions over the last 10 years and profiling information such as age, interests and location.

Offering a level of customer insight and targeting that has been out of reach to retailers running multi-channel acquisition programmes, 2ergo’s mobile campaign package has been developed to help drive traffic, gain new intelligence about customer behaviour and measure response rates and reactions to specific offers.

The package offers marketers the ability to build branded landing pages for the offers and uses targeted mobile advertising strategies including banner ads to drive additional prospects to promotions. This removes the need for a brand to have its own mobile presence – meaning campaigns can be executed without major investment into mobile platform infrastructure.

To launch the service, 2ergo has developed The Mobile Guide to Customer Acquisition: top tips for retail marketers who want to launch an effective and targeted mobile campaign in matter of days. To download the guide, go to 2ergo's Acquisition guide

John Stevens, group managing director of 2ergo, said, “Our mobile campaign package is a world first – marketers not only have access and insight into 10m mobile phone users, but also the ability to set up targeted, compelling mobile campaigns such as SMS marketing extremely quickly.

There’s no requirement to invest in mobile infrastructure, meaning marketers concerned they’ve left it too late to capitalise on this Christmas’ m-commerce now have an effective, expedient way of targeting prospective customers, and securing their long-term loyalty.”
