Out There Campaign comes out incredibly successful

Blackberry maker RIM had launched the touchscreen BlackBerry Storm 9500 Smartphone, in 2009. RIM and Out There Media joined hands to create and manage a mobile advertising campaign across Austria to target the under 26 year old market with this new device. The campaign was run for two weeks and Vodafone subscribers got it delivered through Vodafone live! portal.

Those who visited the portal were also offered a free Justin Timerlake music video for watching the 15-second long advertisement.

Through out the two weeks, the BlackBerry Storm ad was viewed for 140,000 times through the Vodafone live! portal. The advertisement as a clickthrough-rate of 5.5% and the Justin Timberlake video was streamed a total of 2,101 times. The conversion rate for the entire campaign was 27.5%.

According to Kerstin Trikalitis, Out There Media CEO, this is a great example of targeted mobile advertising in action and the fantastic results that brands can achieve through this medium.

The company strongly believes in the power of reaching out to consumers directly and they are very happy to witness through all their campaigns that mobile advertising is an ideal way of doing so. Targeted and appropriate campaigns, such as this one for RIM, prove that this approach can achieve great results.
