Blue Bite Overview What is Bluetooth and WiFi?
• Bluetooth is a universal communications protocol primarily designed for low power consumption enabling devices to communicate with each other when they are in range
– Devices do not have to be in line of sight (transmission range of up to 300ft)
– Popular devices include mobile phones, laptops, smart-phones, headsets, video-game controllers
– Bluetooth is the most common method of wireless data transmission
– Bluetooth saturation and consumer adoption grew exponentially as a result of hands-free driving legislation
• Most feasible and cost-effective method of delivering media to mobile devices
– FCC compliant– Not considered SPAM advertising– Effective method of delivering numerous types of digital
media
WiFi allows for compatibility with additional handsets via HTML web browsing
– WiFi is the only way to communicate with Apple’s iPhone(Bluetooth not capable of file transfer)
– Apple has sold an estimated 42 million iPhones to date– Newer more advanced models are integrating WiFi
(Blackberry Bold, Google G1)
WiFi has important complements to Bluetooth– Interactive browsing of content – Allows users to choose the content they want (push vs.
pull)– Fast transmission speeds– Strong signal enables longer transmission range
WiFi usage is familiar to consumers – Most users have a pre-existing knowledge base and
experience connecting to and utilizing WiFi networks (short learning curve)
• High prevalence and rapid growth of Bluetooth and WiFi– Billionth Bluetooth device shipped in November of 2006– According to a 2008 Millward Brown study, consumer awareness of Bluetooth and WiFi is at an all-time high– By 2010 Bluetooth and WiFi will be present in over 86% and 25% of mobile handsets in the U.S., respectively– Bluetooth SIG has predicted that 10 billion Bluetooth devices will ship by 2011– WiFi gaining traction with mobile carriers as it reduces strain on network bandwidth
20
Blue Bite Overview Advantages of Bluetooth and WiFi Over Other Media
• Low cost– Free for end-user and can offer more complete content than SMS or MMS– Same overhead whether reaching 100 or 100,000 people
• Robust tracking– Unparalleled out-of-home advertising tracking– Ability to track number of users who have been targeted (impressions), and who have accepted / rejected the content– Proprietary analysis of shopper behavior (i.e. walking patterns, time spent at location, most utilized entrances / exits)– Will lead to strong ROIs for customer retention purposes
• Rapidly growing consumer acceptance– Consistent campaign opt-in rates of 40%+ and positive engagement rates of 80%+– Inherent value in the download itself
• Flexibility and targeting– Best geo-targeting available and ability to change hierarchy / timing of advertisement transmissions – Ability to transmit any type of media (images, videos, ringtones, mp3s, coupons, applications, games and more) – Maintains user response history to prevent duplicate transmissions and retarget users with personalized campaigns– Only technology with micro-targeting capability (under 5ft) for proactive consumer engagement – Ability to create unique personalized interactions – thousands of times over
• Timeless advertising– Media remains in device until proactively removed by user (multiple views)– Advertisement can be spread exponentially around the world via Bluetooth, Email, SMS, MMS (“Demographic
sorting”)
“With traditional media continuously challenged to reach audiences, the out-of-home space is being re-invigorated through Bluetooth technology”
– Westwind Partners“Mobile phones are the
primary contact platform
for today’s modern
consumer. It’s always with
you and it’s always on”
– Bluetooth SIG
