Let Attendees Take It With Them

The mobile solution for the conference and events industry

The Unado™ mobile platform includes specific solutions for the conference and events industry that enrich attendee experiences using mobile devices. Our mobile conference solution allows attendees to access conference information from any mobile device, provides news and announcements in real-time, and allows attendees and panelists to participate in discussions on a conference blog, Twitter, or Facebook from the convenience of their mobile devices.

The platform’s capabilities help you streamline your operations by integrating with your event registration, management and ticketing systems. You'll be able to run ads on behalf of sponsors and participating businesses and restaurants in or near the venue. Perhaps most importantly, you’ll generate new revenue opportunities naturally by making all of your event services, amenities, and related attractions a part of the mobile conference experience.

Conference and meeting planners now have at their disposal a powerful suite of mobile tools, including:

For attendees: Mobile concierge

Attendees need to know – and are constantly asking – the status of meetings, room locations, exhibitor spots and other conference information. Communicate alerts and updates in real-time with SMS text messaging, email, Twitter, and more.

Give them the information they want when they want it. Publish mobile pages that feature event information and related local amenities and attractions. Keep your attendees up to date on your event, enabling them to sign up to a calendar of events and happenings. Include general information to simplify contact and communication between you and your valued guests.

Through our mobile solution, you can easily provide attendees with capabilities such as schedules, venue maps, real-time schedule and speaker updates. Also stay connected to attendees post-event by providing them with easily-accessible survey forms, contest information, and other info.

Conferences are social - your mobile site should be too

Integrate your conference’s social presence directly into your mobile site via RSS, twitter, Facebook, YouTube and more. Keep attendees involved through social media integration like Flickr photo pools and YouTube playlists for attendee-generated videos (you control which content is displayed with filtered feeds). Host contests and quizzes to engage attendees and keep them in the loop about the conference and related events. Generate leads and gather information by way of polls and surveys to gather attendee feedback.

For exhibitors: Mobile leads

Conference exhibitors are there to generate new leads. Help them do this by providing them with a value-add mobile exhibitor solution to capture new leads using SMS and mobile web pages. Exhibitors can grab more leads by running contests, special offers, and other attention-grabbing calls-to-action right from their booths.

For your marketing team: Event marketing

Mobile is a great way to target your marketing efforts and get potential attendees to learn more. If you already use a campaign management or CRM system to manage your event marketing, then simply integrate to the Unado™ system and drive your mobile campaigns directly from your existing solution.

Target event promotions using SMS based on user preferences, providing them with the choice to opt-in to receive exclusive offers. Drive them to mobile web pages where they can learn more about your event, respond to request-for-information forms, and even sign-up to attend! Collect mobile data for post-event marketing efforts for retention. Streamline and improve campaigns with real-time conversion reports and analytics.

For you: Event management, registration and ticketing

Your event technology solutions all deserve a mobile capability. Streamline attendee registration and management processes by integrating our open technologies that are designed to work with any event technology solution. Leverage our expertise to streamline and optimize your mobile business processes.

For any type of event or group activity

Our mobile conference solution works well for any one-time or on-going activity where you have a group of people who will need information. Events, political campaigns, group activities (such as teams) and festivals are all good functions where mobile can provide great communication and organizational tools.

Tickets anyone?

Do your guests need tickets to a local event? Integrate Unado™’ mobile ticketing partner TicketLeap Mobile for local event tickets. Even use TicketLeap to provide a full ticketing capability for your own event needs, integrated into your branded mobile site.

Agencies too

Mobile is the Future of Recruiting Too

Unado™ is the go-to mobile platform for recruiting professionals

The Unado™ mobile platform is used by recruiters because they frequently need an edge over the competition. Mobile tactics help them achieve better results, and Unado™ is a proven way of achieving them.

In the first place, it's a mobile-friendly presence for a mobile-ready audience.

Statistics gathered by clients show as much as twice the pages viewed per visit as compared to desktop-style career sites. Unado™ is the obvious choice for a mobile-ready career site due to the many features discussed throughout this site. Brand identity is important to the career function at large corporations, and in mobile that needs to be conveyed on all types of phones in images, background images, custom navigation bars, audio, video and more. In other words, the mobile design elements we're known for.

Secondly, it's the ability to take qualified visitors through the lead conversion process and feeling good about the experience.

You've found a candidate, and your visitor has found a new favorite employer. Unado™ has the flexibility to design the connection and conversion process to suit your style while automatically handling the complex requirements of mobile phone users. Clients have experienced as much as 22% higher enrollment from mobile lead form pages as compared to their desktop-style lead capture pages. And you can now add SMS lead capture to your candidate acquisition process. Candidates that register to receive updates via text message are more engaged and responsive to your messaging than email recipients.

Next it's about SMS text message alerts when you're on campus or when hiring begins.

Unado™ includes an integrated text message opt-in and alert system, allowing you to capture SMS leads and subsequently alert them to opportunities. More than a simple text transport system, Unado™ allows you to label and segment your users so the right recipients receive the message. And since it's integrated, your text messages are a call to action to visit program-specific mobile pages as a destination right on the spot as the text alert is received. What could be more immediate and compelling? And now you can integrate your Unado™-powered mobile candidate interactions with your applicant tracking system, through real business process integration - another thing Unado™ is known for. Have candidates set their job preferences during the application process, store them in your Applicant Tracking System and automatically send applicants SMS text message job alerts that match.

And lastly, it's the mobile-social channel itself.

You've already started a Twitter account, posted a few videos to YouTube and uploaded pictures to your Flickr photo pool to assist in outreach and communication to your candidate prospect pool. Now bring it back home to your mobile social hub. By featuring social media content you'll be able to project an accessible image while leveraging the positive comments, articles, photos and videos that exist today, but that are scattered around the social web. Tweeting about that job opening? Make sure the link from your tweet goes to your mobile social hub. People tweeting positive comments or video blogging about you? That's the perfect thing to show prospective candidates upon visiting you on their mobile.

 

Mobile is easier than you think - with the right toolset

Engage your target audience, leveraging the mobile-social environment. Capture their data, then build a following via positive user experiences online combined with SMS text alerts that are exciting and timely.

 

Our Multi-Entity Portal Simplifies the Math

Large companies have complicated technology requirements. Requirements that go undelivered by mobile solutions that were intended to serve a single location or small business. In order to serve corporations with separate divisions, multiple brands, or hundreds of locations, Unado™ designed its system architecture from the database to the administration interface to manage the entire roll-out process from design and deployment through maintenance and billing.

Large companies also have opportunities to benefit from economies of scale and to co-promote and cross-sell. Unado™ offers you the ability to leverage those opportunities with built-in systems to connect to internal data repositories, format content, and manage advertising.

Every multi-entity solution includes a master management portal designed for centralized organization, control and reporting, with a built-in concept of related sub-businesses and decentralized administrators. And lots of handy features that are necessary for smooth, worry-free and transparent management of multiple brands, locations or properties.

Multiple Brands or Business Units

Consumer products sold under different brands targeting different markets are typically marketed and managed as separate entities; yet costs, maintenance tasks and reporting must be easily aggregated and managed for consistent performance and cost efficiency. As your organization learns and profits from mobile business solutions, it's natural that the demand for similar solutions will spread to other brands or business units. Unado™ has an easy growth path for continually adding businesses related by a connection to the master management portal.

Multiple Locations, Properties or Franchisees

The individual units of a chain or franchise have a lot in common with one another. Unado™ makes it possible to benefit from economies of scale as you roll out mobile business solutions and mobile marketing campaigns to every location. You'll benefit from global administration tools and customized business templates as you manage organization-wide adoption of your mobile solution. And individual locations will be able to control what's relevant to their local responsibilities and shape content and campaigns for their customers and guests.

Mobile business solutions for every property or brand

• Easily design and deploy multiple individual mobile web solutions or text message campaigns
• Control multiple locations, brands or properties from within your portal - with administrator settings that let you provide global access or access to individual sub-accounts to your staff or franchisees.
• Includes a primary mobile site for your parent company or brand, and unlimited demo and prototyping accounts to make it easy to roll out to every entity in your organization.

 

A Unado™ Partnership Adds Mobile-Power To Your Services

Mobile is on everyone's radar - including your customers and your competition

Mobile represents one of the fastest growing technology segments and is ramping up faster than the desktop Internet. In fact, Smartphones are expected to outsell sales of all consumer desktop and notebook PC's within the next few years. As mobile devices evolve as remote controls for all types of activities, from getting marketing offers to making reservations and even buying all types of products, mobile needs to be a central part of the marketing mix and business process thinking for most companies.
