From Publishing News Online Macmillan Children's goes high-tech.
CLAIMING AN INDUSTRY first, Macmillan Children’s Books is launching an interactive poster campaign for Teen Idol, the new Meg Cabot title. Running from 3-16 January, this innovative promotion, which was planned by Total Media, uses ‘mobile marketing technology’ devised by Hypertag to get the market – in this case 10-14 year olds – to interact with outdoor advertising using their mobile phones.
Six-sheet bus shelter posters, all situated in heavy footfall areas of town centres, will be fitted with infrared Hypertag units which are designed to communicate with infrared-enabled mobiles; once activated, the poster can download vouchers that will instantly tell users if they’ve won prizes which include a shopping spree, lip balms and book samples, or simply give them a consolation Teen Idol screen saver.
This campaign sees us taking the next step in engaging this elusive audience through their mobiles – and the great thing with Hypertag is that the results are instantly rewarding, something teens all want
