Seven British football clubs have launched Bluetooth marketing drives in and around their home stadiums during matches. The service will be run by Bluepod Media <\/strong>who will be allowed to create and distribute branded content to the spectators. <\/p>\n

Fans of Blackburn Rovers, Birmingham City, West Ham, Portsmouth, Wigan Athletic, Wolves <\/strong>and Celtic <\/strong>will be able to opt-in in order to receive club profiles, fixtures, news and manager notes. The cost of this will be absorbed by advertisers at a pay-per-download rate of between GBP 40p and 70p. <\/p>\n

A recent Trial at a Portsmouth match showed very good results. 6,245 fans opted in to download a film trailer out of a total crowd of 20,200 (31%)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

John Scorah<\/strong>, Managing Director, Bluepod Media: \u201cBrands waste millions of pounds targeting football fans on match days via traditional media which is both uninspiring and not measurable. We now offer brands the opportunity to create a one to one relationship with fans that adds value to their matchday experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

Several well known brands currently work with Bluepod, these include Vue, Cineworld <\/strong>and Showcase<\/strong> and they recently ran a campaign to promote the LG Viewty <\/strong>phone. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
