The other side of Motorola

I really like the website Motorola has launched in the US to present its government and public safety solutions. It’s quite rare to find a B2B online marketing project in general, and it’s even more rare to find a B2B website that is so well done.

The site launched last month, but there hasn’t been much buzz around it in the creative/marketing community, which is a pity because the work is beautiful and inspiring.

Enjoy the MotoSpeed

Tokioplastic is the creative mind (and arm) behind the recently launched MotoSpeed webisodes. The idea behind the digitally animated short videos is to highlight the benefits of Motorola’s mobile broadband handsets.

Maybe this is enough… (but I’m not sure).

New technology by Motorola for mobile ads

Motorola is about to launch on the US market a new dynamic idle-screen technology dubbed “Screen 3″. It’s a technology that pushes Internet information to the mobile phone’s screen.

RCR News reports carriers can use it to promote new services and features without bombarding user with text or multimedia messages. Motorola is already looking for advertisers interested in sponsoring the content provided through Screen 3.

Hello Moto, Hello Mtv

New Media Age reports MTV and Motorola have signed a deal to offer free mobile content to its viewers. In Europe, people with a Motorola phone will be able to access a WAP portal and download videos, ringtones and wallpapers. Officially, the initiative aims at raising awareness of mobile video among end users, but rumors seem to indicate this is just a smart move from MTV to make the mobile channel attractive to advertisers.

Merry Xmas (via sms)

Australians would rather get (and send) a text message during the holiday season than a Christmas card, according to a survey commissioned by Motorola. As ITnews reports, the findings are interesting also because they show that nearly half of those surveyed preferred to send text messages rather than talking on the phone.

Motorola learned the online lesson

If you integrate online and offline in your viral marketing campaign it would turn out far more effective. This is one of the lessons learned by Motorola in two years of online marketing. An interesting article on ContentBiz.com tells more about Motorola’s online efforts.
