i-level Media Partners With mInfo to Offer Campaigns With Mobile Interactive Response
SHANGHAI, China, Sept. 6, 2007 -- i-level Media Group Inc. (OTCBB:ILVL), China's premier digital taxi media company, announces a strategic partnership with mInfo(r) Inc. (www.minfo.com), a leading provider of mobile search and advertising services to China's 500+ million wireless telephone subscribers. The partnership will enable i-level to offer advertisers an integrated mobile-messaging response feature as part of their ad campaigns on i-level's digital outdoor media network. In addition, the two companies will cooperate to promote mInfo's convenient natural language mobile search services to i-level's growing audience of taxi riders.
"Our clients will see significant added value in the interactive response tracking capabilities which we can now offer using mInfo's technological infrastructure and expertise," remarked i-level's President & CEO, Aidan Sullivan. "The service will combine the targeted audience reach and high impact of our media platform, with the interactive and measurable feedback afforded by mobile messaging. Our research indicates that more than 95% of our viewers have a mobile phone with them in the taxi, so this is a natural and powerful combination."
"Outdoor and Mobile are both rapidly growing ad segments in China," said Alvin Wang Graylin, CEO, mInfo(r) Inc. "By combining forces, we are able to leverage both our companies' key strengths and deliver a superior interactive marketing platform for advertisers on both the i-level and mInfo networks."
By including a call-to-action to viewers in an ad on i-level's network, advertisers will be able to directly measure the effectiveness and return on investment from their media buy. With mInfo's mobile messaging services, an i-level ad campaign can integrate many types of real-time consumer interaction, such as electronic discount coupons, interactive surveys or contests, or requests for additional product information by text message or e-mail.
i-level will begin offering this added-value service immediately to customers advertising on its Shanghai-based network of 4,000 in-taxi digital screens.
