Major Retail Department Store Runs Mobile Ad Campaign Over Ace Marketing's Mobiquity Networks to Introduce New Rewards ProgramNEW YORK, March 27, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Ace Marketing & Promotions, Inc. (OTC.BB: AMKT) announced today that over a 4-week period in March, a major retail department store utilized Ace Marketing's Mobiquity Network in Roosevelt Field Mall (NY) and Santa Monica Place Mall (CA) to deliver a 30 second video introducing its new rewards program. The Retailer launched its customer loyalty program in all of its U.S. retail locations and online. The new tender-neutral program is streamlined and delivers benefits to any customer shopping with a U.S. address at their stores or online -- regardless of how they pay. Members of the loyalty program will accumulate points each time they shop and for every 5,000 points will receive a Reward Card worth 25 dollars. The Rewards Card can be redeemed on all merchandise (exclusive of gift cards) and are issued the moment earned, in the store or overnight via e-mail if earned online, for use the very next day. Mobiquity Networks allows advertisers the ability to deliver mobile coupons and other rich media content via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to on-the-go shoppers' mobile devices. This advertising medium targets shoppers with engaging content as they move about the mall environment and does not require them to check-in, download an application or be tracked by GPS, eliminating three major barriers in location-based mobile marketing. Ace's Mobiquity Network units are strategically positioned near entrances, anchor stores, escalators and other high-traffic and high dwell-time areas throughout each mall creating a "cloud" to maximize advertising messaging reach and frequency. For more information please visit us at: http://www.mobiquitynetworks.com Ace's mobile technology allows advertisers to interact with shoppers through either Bluetooth (push) or Wi-Fi (pull). Mobile devices with Bluetooth set to "visible" or "discoverable" are detected and prompted with an opt-in message to receive rich media content from the advertiser; those answering "Yes" receive the content for free. The users can also access the free content by connecting to Mobiquity's Wi-Fi network throughout the mall. Some popular campaign elements delivered through this medium include coupons, movie trailers, calendar reminders, mobile applications, ring tones, wallpaper and special event offers.
