Not only does the BBC have an enormous and valuable presence online, it also has an incredible coverage on BBC Mobile sites.
Educate and the BBC are able to target mobile advertising geographically to ensure that your campaign is seen on all handsets, directly to your target market. This enables us to very accurately reach your target market, where ever they are accessing the site to generate incredibly high response rates.
Mobile has seen substantial growth but with the demographic audiences that universities and colleges need to target, it is critically important. Internationally however, it is not just how information is absorbed that requires a presence on mobile, it is important for a number of different reasons. When it comes to countries that have varied and less reliable infrastructures, mobile is the main source of information. As such, it provides a relevant and direct route to key audiences, who often rely on their mobiles.
Our Account Managers either run BBC mobile campaigns as part of a larger campaign or as a standalone campaign (which is becoming increasingly common) and the BBC mobile campaigns have, and continue to be, hugely successful.
As well as access to this actractive audience, we can also provide clients with a custom built landing page that we can host. Included in this can be images, text, logos as well as a data capture field. Therefore, you can use this high impact display to also collect information and data of interested applicants, fair registrations of potential students.
