We are currently doing a campaign for one of the famous brands. There are campaigns not only demonstrating the solution challenges we face in certain scenarios but also highlighting the fact that if the campaign is well thought, better results are bound to come for a brand.

When we decided to do this campaign, all we knew was that it was a cantor activity wherein cantor will move around the Mumbai city distributing content, mobile forms and mobile coupons from the brand.

But we started seeing great challenges as in case of any events on its first day when the actual deployment began. We met with some unforeseen problems during deployment that included unavailability of power supply (battery operated devices will not last for a 10 hour campaign). To our surprise it was not a single deployment but 5-6 different installations a day including few in slums, streets and not-so-common places in Mumbai.

But that did not dither our passion for delivery nor our technology and its robustness. Both our team and technology was ready for this challenges and pictures below will talk about this.

But that’s ok were the people ready for this? Were they turning on Bluetooth to engage with the brand on mobile? Check out these pictures.

Amazing number of people in the vicinity (more than 400 or 80% +) took no time to engage with the activity through our media (BluFi) and participated in the activation through their mobile to get a chance to dance and sip a free drink. While the results of the campaign would be shared once the activity is completed, we just wanted to share this information to explain following facts:

  1. Challenges of technology and execution and how a great team and technology can live up to those challenges
  2. Proof of how campaigns that connect to consumers can create wonders for the brand
  3. And lastly, why we always believe that SEC “C” and rural India is lot more aware and ready for what we do as a company
Good day,

BluFi is consumer friendly: Consumers love when they get branded content for FREE! As most consumers feel that present data plans are expensive and slow on speed, BluFi on the other hand costs them Zero and it’s faster than the 3G! BluFi is completely permission based and users can easily opt of the engagement just by turning of their mobile bluetooth hence provide the control to the user!
BluFi for great reach: What ever the sine of media plan is, BluFi can help marketers to reach the mobile consumers at various locations like shopping malls, restaurants, hangouts, corporate locations, cricket stadiums etc across India. Marketers can reach the “hard to reach consumers who are on mobile” via BluFi more effectively than other medium.
Target the right consumer: Blufi makes it possible to target users based on the mobile phone model they carry with. So when a luxury brand wants to engage with the TG, BluFi helps to target all hi-end mobile phones in BluFi locations and deliver the brand message.
Customized messages: Using BluFi, brands can deliver different messages to different users based on the mobile models, duration of the day, location of the user, based on the previous interactions with the users etc. This helps brand to stand out from the clutter and to provide great engaging content for users. BluFi also identifies different mobile models and will deliver the right content for users which is compatible to their mobile phone.
Rich media on mobile: Using BluFi we can deliver rich media content to users’ mobile in lesser time than any other mediums! Rich brand content like TVC, wallpapers, screensaver, mobile games, mobile applications, flash files, mobile coupons, mobile brochures etc can be delivered to users.
Measurement: Measurement of the campaign in BluFi is advanced than many existing mediums available. Measurement can be made based on the location, time duration, consumer segment based on the mobile phone models, viral element etc. Advanced measurement like these helps marketers to read the impact of the campaign, get feedback from the consumers and to customize the message if required.
Good day,

While BluFi delivered lot of interesting campaigns for some of the biggest brands in the country over last few months, we always feel, there needs to be lot more awareness about BluFi as a media to reach mobile consumers effectively.

To bridge the gap we recently did an analysis integrated with an independent survey on BluFi network and usage patterns. Seeing the results we thought it is exciting for us to share the same with planners.

For the analysis following data were considered:

1) Network Data 2) Sample space 3) 100% accuracy

Some of the exciting findings include…

  • 73% of users wanted to constantly know about new products coming up in the market
  • 63% are interested in fashion and latest trends
  • 63% are interested in holidaying abroad
  • 22% are planning to buy a new 2 wheeler and 32% of them are planning to go for a 4 wheeler within an year
  • 71% would access BluFi for the second time within a month and 35% of them would access BluFi atleast 5 times within a month
  • 59% are interested in accepting communication from Liquor companies

BluFi is any marketer’s dream, where they can use existing 600+ BluFi locations across India like shopping malls, hangouts, restaurants, corporate locations or deploy BluFi in their existing BTL activations, OOH properties like hoardings, bus shelters etc.

We are very much focused in providing great engagement opportunities to users by understanding their usage patterns and behaviour. Based on our analysis and previous campaigns, we’ve identified interesting insights on the user behaviour and the factors that influencing user acceptance towards BluFi.

BluFi consumer acceptance stack

We are witnessing great acceptance from the consumers for BluFi across locations. Consumers are eagerly engaging with BluFi when they have been educated about the campaign. There is also a great increase of the repeat users in our permanent BluFi locations across India which proves the fact that consumers are on the lookout for best deals and information (Ref. above pic).

From our survey and past campaigns, we have found that following are the great reasons for users to engage with BluFi:

  • Free mobile downloads (35%)
  • Free offers/news (20%)
  • I like the brand (22%)
  • I like the campaign (12%)
  • My Bluetooth is always on (5)
  • Excitement (rest)

BluFi Acceptance pattern


Different set of customers are accepting BluFi to engage with interesting campaigns. As the above picture indicates, BluFi is also a great medium to reach SEC A and SEC A+ users who are very hard to reach and establish an engaging brand experience and also at various touch points like kiosks,mobile vans, airports, shopping malls, youth hangouts, events etc!

Increase in Bluetooth acceptance with activations


As per our data almost 73% of users are looking forward to get more information about the products to be launched. And from our experience we have witnessed great user acceptance for brand messages. The number of users who accept brand messages increases when there is a great buzz happening with the activations in the location.

We've also found that following activations provides great triggers for users to engage with brands in BluFi zones:

  • Consistent and persistent education through banners/posters/standees etc
  • Campaign specific activations
  • Announcements
  • Promoters
  • Word of mouth/Viral
  • Education via digital screens

BluFi provides great advantages for brands to establish great engagement with consumers when they are in mood for engaging with the brand.

Good day,

“Sangeetha mobiles” is a leading mobile phone retailer based out of Bangalore, India. They partnered with TELiBrahma to increase walk-ins to their outlets in Bangalore during their annual sale. 


The objective was to communicate multiple offers in the promotion to the right customers and to overcome the disbelief in promotions in a competitive market. 

The campaign strategy is to target right customers at the right time and deliver relevant content to them, which is possible only with BluFi. And to make the communication relevant to their present location.

We segmented customers based on their phones as lower end, mid segment and high end handsets and we delivered relevant communication to them by delivering offers that matched their mobile profile.

“For mid segment handsets we delivered offers on Memory cards to upgrade their mobile memory!”

During the campaign our existing BluFi network in shopping malls, youth hangouts, restaurants, commercial streets etc were used for the promotions. The retailer has multiple outlets in Bangalore and in the BluFi locations near the outlet we delivered the promotional message to customers and prompted them to walk-in to the outlet by providing the address of the nearest outlet.

“Users in Bangalore Forum mall received a relevant offer along with a message to walk-in to the ‘Sangeetha’ outlet at 2nd floor for more offers and surprises.”


Needless to say, this thoughtful campaign enticed users and made them believe that this offer is like exclusively designed for them! Following are some of the statistics that proves BluFi is an effective medium for brand communications!

50000+ users were engaged to the promotions through 20+ hangout locations around Bangalore!

Footfalls of users with Bluetooth turned on in different retail locations increased from 20% to 150% during the campaign

Over 4000 users visited the store after they received offer details via BluFi!

Staggering 45% increase in footfall with Bluetooth turned on across the locations!

“Hi!

Whether you like or not, every day we all get SMS Advertisements.

And of course, we do not have much control over this menace, except a blanket blocking.

Now, in India, a company has come up with a revenue sharing model. They share their advertisement revenue with us!

If you register your mobile number with them, you will get money for each SMS you receive.

Please do not forget to refer your friends too, once you are enrolled.

It will enhance your earnings via referral bonuses.

To know more log on to --------------------------------------”


This Friday morning I received the above e-mail. Funny part in the mail is that the advertisers clearly accept that they would be sending us messages whether we are for or against receiving these SMS’s. They are bribing us to receive their messages. I expect these mobile marketing firms to be a little more sensitive. This just shows that they have lost all sense of morality and just somehow want to push in their messages.

What probably they arguments are based on is that paying to consumers would be cheaper and better than investing in R&D, creative guys and working hours with agencies to come up with a good and effective ad campaign that best suits the brand etc.

They had sent this particular mail to me on my official email id which goes on to prove that they have not got their targeting right in the first place. I am sure that many of us with rather prefer to pay for not receiving spam on our mobiles and rather receive some useful stuff.

One could be interested on some mobile marketing promotions for maybe a day only. But once we opt for a promotion, things become difficult. When we wish to opt out of these SMS alerts no one knows how to stop these alerts. There is no clarity in their websites as well. Even if we found a way to opt out, we need to remember the shortcode and reply them to stop sending messages for which we need to pay a premium for the SMS!
What we need is a platform where we can choose what we want and come out of it with minimal effort. Something like we receive messages when we like by simply turning our bluetooth on and can keep them away by turning it off.

Isn't mobile marketing something that cheers up the customers rather than pushing messages on us?
Are advertisiers listening?

Following is the news article about TELiBrahma by one of the leading business media brand in India "MINT"

Picks from India’s start-up landscape

TELiBrahma Convergent Communications Pvt Ltd

What does it do: TELiBrahma is a mobile solutions provider which offers Bluetooth-enabled advertising solutions for cellphones (Bluetooth, a short-distance wireless technology, allows data connectivity between devices).

Investors: Inventus Capital, Ojas Venture Partners
Likely exit: M&A or IPO

Why it is hot: Advertisers need or prefer ad mediums/networks that enable or provide qualified reach, accountability of the spending in terms of measurability, rich media applications, cost-effective advertising and promotion at the point of sale or location. While existing mobile-based ad solutions aim to address the above needs of advertisers, they are dependent on service providers, and require either phones with GPS (global positioning system) or triangulation-based cellular techniques to reach customers thereby limiting scope. TELiBrahma with its nationwide network of Bluetooth enabled zones is positioned to take advantage of the emerging digital advertising landscape. “As ad spends increasingly move towards digital media/BTL with clear emphasis on measurability and relevance, we expect that TELiBrahma’s offering will do exceedingly well,” says Rajesh Srivathsa, managing partner, Ojas Venture Partners. BTL is short for below the line advertising that does not rely on traditional channels such as television, print or radio.

“Michael Jackson is no more with us”. The news that made millions of fans across the globe spend their night sleepless! 

We at Telibrahma also share the same grief as the rest of his fans. After all he was an Icon who proved that talent knew no boundaries and innovation is what matters to make a difference!

Most of our employees are huge fans of MJ and we decided to pay a tribute to the king of pop, and more importantly, tribute to a real hero who inspired millions of kids to dream big!

Within 30 mins of the news in 26th June, we decided to provide fans memories of MJ that can reside on their mobile phone!

 We have worked on an animated content that provided the achievements of MJ, and took fans back to golden days of POP! This is completely a NON-COMMERCIAL activity from Telibrahma, where we just wanted to pass the memories of one of the best music personality of the century!

We have delivered the content in all our BluFi zones (Bluetooth enabled locations) across India like McDonalds, Barista, shopping malls, youth hangouts, restaurants, corporate locations etc...

The challenge was that there were no communication to the users about the content due to virtually zero turn around time! But we believed in the oldest form of communication to spread the word out – “Word of mouth”! 

We did this as a gesture of goodwill for his fans and to pay homage to a real hero. But what turned out was a result we didn’t even imagine! We have connected to over 40,000 unique fans in just two and a half days! Total number of Virals involved among peers was not accounted!

We believed that if the content is good, relevant and makes sense, users will spread the word out. And we have seen that many users were sending sms to their friends about the activity! And they have asked their friends to turn on their mobile bluetooth to receive special MJ content!

This activity proved the basics of mobile marketing: “Provide content that’s relevant and do that in an interesting way!” And more than that we have to ACT not REACT to achieve results in mobile marketing!

And our employees at TELiBrahma made it a “MJ-ONLY-DAY”! Who ever listening to music were playing ONLY Michael Jackson songs for the entire day!

Thank you MJ, for entertaining, inspiring and at last taught us few things!

Good day,

Team TELiBrahma.

Tamilnadu (a state in southern India) easily ranks as one of the craziest movie following market in India. Added to this, there will be atleast one movie that’s hitting theaters every month. Unless the movie has big start value, it’s hard to pull the crowd to the theaters to make them experience the movie. Film producers find it’s difficult to differentiate their film from the rest in traditional marketing methods! 

To create a differentiation and a different offering for the movie crazy young fans, producers of Mutthirai an action packed romantic movie, wanted to try out a new mode of advertising in contrary to the conventional form of promoting movies and to break away from the clutter.

ASA productions partnered with TeliBrahma Convergent communications, India’s leading mobile solutions company based out of Bangalore. TeliBrahma possesses BluFi, its proprietary product, where marketers can engage with users over mobile with TeliBrahma’s 1000+ Blufi zones like Mc Donald’s, Barista, CafĂ© Coffee day, Shopping malls, Commercial streets and ability to convert any location on to an instant Bluetooth zone!

The objective is to reach out to people movie crazy fans in Chennai and to provide them a better experience about the movie on their mobile! Hence the campaign was carried out in popular hangout locations like Baristas and Shopperstop in Chennai for duration of 3 weeks. 

Users in the locations were educated about the promotions and prompted to turn their mobile Bluetooth to know more about the movie. Multiple mobile wallpapers of the movie were delivered to the users mobile along with the audio tracks from the movie. Users who wanted the complete song track were diverted to the WAP site of UTV, digital partners of ASA production and there they were able to download the full song directly on to their mobile.
This was the first time ever in the Tamil industry that an innovative mobile solution is used for a movie promotion! And for the users who were used to conventional promos, this happened to be a new experience and it was reflected in number of downloads!

We have connected to over 4000+ movie fans in the campaign period who got excited and downloaded the mobile wall papers and audio capsule of the movie. In a nutshell all fans went back with a piece of the movie which triggered a reason to watch the movie in the big screen! 

“Today, one cannot just do TV commercials and press ads to make sure a buzz for a film is created. To get the target audience of Mutthirai involved with the movie, we needed an interactive promotion. Doing Bluetooth publicity and providing wallpapers, ring tones with TeliBrahma not only helped us to create awareness about Mutthirai but also promote other paid downloads!. We wanted to leverage on the hit music of Mutthirai that became a good talking point for the movie and downloads were good way to trigger it” said Urmi Thakur, Marketing Executive of ASA productions.
