The CW Picks Myxer's New 'Red Carpet' Program to Power Digital Marketing
Campaign for Highly Anticipated '90210' Series
Solution provides entertainment & music industry with integrated web-to-mobile
toolkit to launch new movies, TV shows, music, DVDs and more
DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., Sept. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Myxer, the leader in
ad-supported mobile content, today launched "Red Carpet," an online and
mobile marketing program designed to give entertainment studios, musicians and
marketing agencies the ability to add high impact advertising opportunities to
product launches. The first fully integrated web-to-mobile program was
unveiled today with The CW Network to launch their highly anticipated new TV
series, "90210" (a contemporary spin-off of the '90s hit show "Beverly Hills,
90210").
Myxer's "Red Carpet" program enables marketers to take their advertising
campaigns to a whole new level -- spanning web-to-mobile. Myxer offers
advertisers three important elements:
-- Custom mobile content downloads (ringtones, videos, images) delivered
by Myxer's hosted mobile content platform
-- Exposure to Myxer's online community of over 12 million highly-engaged
users (primarily 15 - to - 28 year-olds)
-- A set of customized widgets that enable viral distribution of their
mobile content on any web site or social media property
For The CW's "90210" series launch, Myxer worked with OMD -- Los Angeles
to create an integrated campaign that starts online with a complete brand
takeover of Myxer's homepage -- giving the CW a "virtual billboard" to promote
their show to Myxer's vast audience -- as well as display advertising and top
feature status. The campaign is taken mobile via SMS text ads, WAP banner ads
and mobile content including free ringtones and wallpapers. Starting today,
visitors can check out http://www.myxer.com to see the current promotion with
The CW.
"The magic of Myxer is in the strength of our community and the simplicity
of our technology," said Myk Wilis, CEO of Myxer. "These elements make Myxer
the venue of choice for the launch of new movies, TV shows, albums, and DVDs.
We're proud to have The CW using Myxer to reach a large number of fans across
the web AND give them branded content they can take with them on the go!"
"To promote The CW's new Fall season, our top priority is to reach our
media savvy young adult viewers on every platform available in a way that is
impactful and relevant to them," said Rick Haskins, Executive Vice President,
Marketing, The CW. "Myxer's integrated web-to-mobile solution allows us to
easily get our marketing messages in front of their more than 12 million users
as well as drive visitors to cwtv.com."
In recent months, Myxer has worked with dozens of high-visibility
advertisers to incorporate elements of their web-to-mobile platform into their
overall campaigns, including McDonalds, NBC, Universal Pictures, U.S. Army,
Warner Home Entertainment and blues musician prodigy Joe Bonamassa
(Billboard's #1 Blues artist). Additional program elements include
customizable mobile web sites as well as write-ups in Myxer's recently
launched Youth Culture MINE blog http://mine.myxer.com.
