CopiaMobile™ announced today that customer Follett Higher Education Group® will deploy its latest innovation in mobile marketing at select locations this fall. The program uses existing point-of-sale software from JDA® Software Group, Inc., paired with CopiaMobile’s patent pending technology, to distribute rewards and incentives via mobile phone to Follett Higher Education Group consumers enrolled in the program.

Designed to appeal to retailers, brands and restaurants, the CopiaMobile mobile marketing solution delivers individual, targeted offers directly to the consumer that are redeemable in-store where purchasing decisions are made. The solution also offers retailers real-time data, which allows for data-driven marketing management of consumer buying behaviors as well as previously immeasurable redemption analytics.

“Serving college students demands that Follett stay on top of the latest marketing and technology trends,” said Joe Skaggs, vice president of marketing at Follett Higher Education Group. “With the rapid adoption of smartphones and other mobile technology, it was essential to develop new strategies in these channels to ensure we are providing the best service to our consumers.”

Follett is introducing the mobile incentive program through a pilot program at five of its collegiate bookstores this year. Following a successful pilot, the company plans to expand the program to additional locations.

“Mobile devices are reshaping the way retailers communicate with their customers,” said Wayne Usie, senior vice president, retail at JDA Software. “New technologies deployed by CopiaMobile and Follett provide incredible data to both retailers and their manufacturers. This rich information helps drive valuable insights from consumer purchasing decision drivers to support optimal inventory decisions.”

At the upcoming JDA FOCUS on May 1-4 in Orlando’s Swan & Dolphin Resort, CopiaMobile will participate in a panel presentation with Follett entitled “Trends and Futures in In-Store Mobility.” The session will provide insight into the opportunities and challenges of adopting a mobile solution and reviews ways to connect with consumers using mobile devices.

“Promotions and consumer opted-in incentives are rapidly shifting from print media to the hand-held device,” said Scott Hines, president of CopiaMobile. “Copia’s technology will have a major impact in helping to influence purchasing behavior and we look forward to partnering with companies like Follett to better segment and target direct marketing offers.”
