Feature Overview

Spongecell Promote Cycle

Upgraded Promote users can utilize Spongecell's rich reporting and detailed metrics on all their contacts, as well as a suite of other advanced features to deliver targeted marketing in ways unprecedented by conventional online and emarketing promotions. All data we collect on your promotions and your contacts' interest levels feeds into our database and lets you follow-up with messages that speak directly to your audience's wants and needs. The next time you use Promote your contact list will grow when people opt-in virally and you will learn even more and more about your existing contacts, and the same process occurs each use thereafter. We call this holistic process of delivering scalable, one-toone marketing the Spongecell Promote Cycle - here's how it works:

Targeted Marketing Filters

Spongecell's Targeted Marketing Filters synchronize automatically with the data we capture to enable you to send messages based upon a variety of criteria. You can send messages based on interest level, previous times contacted, and date the person was added. You can also use information we collect from a particular event promotion and tag people based upon their interest level. For example, if you did two events in one week, a rock concert and a dance music event, you could use the information we collect to determine which people liked what types of events. Then the next time you do a rock concert, you know who on your list likes rock concerts the most.

Spongecell also captures the location of the computer when a user interacts with our technology based upon what is called a referring IP address. We can use that information to help implement geo-targeted events promotions and allow you to send targeted messages to people who live within X number of miles of a particular location.

Contact Management

In addition to the rich information we remember on each of your contacts we also enable you to import and export all your information in standard ways such as by age, gender, location, and any other identifying tags. Upgraded versions can also access our advanced API to synchronize our data collection with their Content Management Systems (CMS) or Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems. This will allow you to import and export data to enrich any database with the information and contacts collected by our Add to Life Technology. Users interested in this feature should contact a dedicated sales person directly.

Spongecell makes it easy for you to serve ads in all event pages. Control of advertising is accessed through the Promote Center, the same user-friendly interface we provide to manage all your events. All that is required to activate advertising is to login and enter one line of code to serve a standard box or banner advertisement. We'll provide a sample of the event page so you can render the ad and customize the layout as needed. This simple way of implementing ads synchronizes with any standard ad server and makes it easy for you to make adjustments to your campaign anytime.

Control Branding

Spongecell's interactive calendar widgets and dynamic event pages encourage viral spread of event information while retaining branding in tact. This enables you to facilitate viral marketing campaigns with unprecedented control over your messaging.
