ONEsite, Inc., the leading provider of enterprise-grade community and social networking software will debut the industry's first mobile application, eNotify, aiming to provide active community members with instant mobile social notifications to help them keep up with online friends, trusted news sources and favorite brands and retailers. eNotify will officially launch with an iPhone version, followed by additional versions compatible with any web or WLAN enabled mobile device.
"eNotify extends the social network community platform beyond the computer by enabling users to follow the latest developments on their mobile device," said Thad Martin, vice president of strategy and business development at ONEsite. "It goes beyond traditional syndication tools like RSS by providing users a mechanism to interact with the content they receive - by immediately posting a response or forwarding it to others, for example - just like they would from their web browser."
Social networking technologies have revolutionized human communication between friends and family, colleagues and co-workers, consumers and marketers, and even complete strangers. The trouble is, in order to stay up to date with what's happening in your online community, you have to stay plugged in to it through a web browser, most often through a desktop or laptop computer. The rollout of the eNotify application is part of ONEsite's overall strategy to extend the usability and traffic generation of their existing robust, white-label social networking software platform.
"For brand marketers, eNotify will provide an additional outlet not only for communicating their brand message, but also targeting that message to an interested and engaged audience," Martin said.
Using GPS mapping technology, retailers and brand marketers can use eNotify to alert subscribers to new product launches, special promotions and events, limited time offers, and other timely or geographically targeted messages. Brand marketers or retailers can notify subscribers within a 5-mile radius of a limited-time discount, for example, and map the store locations where the promotion is taking place to make it easy for subscribers to take advantage of the offer.
"Events will be a major part of the application," Martin said. "Event promoters, like radio and TV stations, entertainment venues and others, can use eNotify to send out instant updates on events happening at a certain time, in a specific location, and to only those subscribers within proximity of the venue, if desired. The potential for this service to drive both site traffic and foot traffic is tremendous."
eNotify integrates quickly and seamlessly with existing ONEsite platforms, which already drive more traffic and activity than any other social networking provider with 124%-400% higher traffic and more than 10 times the participation and engagement than other solutions.
