Richfield, OH. November 09, 2010 — Vivid Digital Concepts, ( http://www.vividdigitalconcepts.com ) the premier franchise-based digital sign network operator, is announcing a new addition to their digital marketing solutions for businesses: mobile text message marketing. The service will allow advertisers on Vivid’s digital sign network to create an opt-in list for customers. Once a customer has “opted-in”, the business can send targeted and timely coupons, specials and reminders directly to their mobile phone via text message.

Digital signage, coupled with mobile marketing, allows businesses to reach customers and potential customers while they are out of their home and in the consumer mindset. Both industries are on strong growth trends. According to recent research released by Arbitron, Digital videos in public venues reaches more Americans each month (70%) than video over the Internet (43%) or Facebook (41%). Additionally, CTIA: The Wireless Association reports that in the first half of 2009, over 4.1 billion texts were sent per day.

One hurdle to text message marketing is getting the keyword and shortcode that individuals use to opt-in to marketing programs out to the targeted audience. Deborah Naegle, President of Vivid Digital Concepts, ( http://www.vividdigitalconcepts.com ) sees both forms of marketing as highly-complementary. “Our digital sign ads are full-motion and high impact: they grab people’s attention. We think that our advertisers will see a huge uplift in exposure for their mobile marketing programs. Even though our core business is digital signage, we think offering mobile marketing, along with digital signage, is a truly powerful approach to branding and advertising. At the end of the day, we just want to deliver a better product to our clients and franchise owners.”

Vivid Digital Concepts franchise owner Brian Grega offered these comments: “The mobile text messaging service offers the best venue for connecting with consumers in an intimate, one-to-one relationship to deliver precise messages on current activities, events and promotions, which will result in increased business for our advertising clients. Once again, Vivid is providing its franchisees an opportunity to provide a great value to our customers.”
