Mobilitrix is one of South Africa's leading providers of mobile content management tools and services. Using the mobile phone, Mobilitrix has provided a range of products that allow the 'willing consumer' to interact with a variety of media-- thereby creating a continuous consumer experience from static to digital.
"The Mobilitrix suite of tools allows media companies to create new revenue channels for customers, deliver content instantly as and when requested, and engage with consumers in a digital format," notes Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Palesa Machacha. "The complete Mobilitrix suite of products is designed to deliver quality solutions to the media industry in order to ensure that media industry channels continue to enjoy and deliver value added content in the technologically dynamic information age."
Mobilitrix's product delivery differs from that of its competitors in that all products are available via a user-friendly web front-end, which gives access to all products and services (including, search, notification, and analytics). There are no up-front fees, registration or usage fees; all pricing is managed using an intelligent cost-per-activity (CPA) pricing model i.e. users of the online system are only billed when mobile consumers start to interact with the static media by requesting or providing content.
"As the mobile content market expands, Mobilitrix has designed a coherent product innovation strategy that encompasses a number of key objectives," states Machacha. "These include scalability, speed of delivery, ease of use for users of the online system, an Emerging Market vision and delivery capabilities together with dynamic and equitable pricing strategies."
Mobilitrix provides an extensive range of products as part of its mobile content management system. Mobilimedia enables content providers to create and offer links to additional content, either hosted directly on one's own site or on a third party site such as Youtube. Mobilitalk creates a dynamic two-way conversation with consumers from static media. It allows companies to receive feedback from consumers on new products or offering from print or radio campaigns or any other element of the traditional media campaign.
Other exceptional product solutions offered by the company include Mobilivoucher that delivers vouchers directly to the mobile phone using text sms, WAP and USSD. Mobilimail is a cross platform product that allows mobile consumers to send or request relevant articles or content to an email address of their choice.
"Mobiligroup helps manage mobile databases and allows mobile users to opt-in (and out) of groups that they are interested in," concludes Machacha. "It, therefore, offers a simple and effective-- yet very powerful-- marketing tool."
