ORANGE LABEL ART +ADVERTISING TAKES ON BRAND AFFINITY TECHNOLOGIES’ netBAT ONLINE AD CAMPAIGN
Brand Affinity Technologies launch of netBAT in August 2010, excites consumers, publishers and advertisers with a new online editorial content experience. Orange Label provides creative and strategic collaboration in launching consumer focused online ad campaigns.

NEWPORT BEACH, California (September 30, 2010)—Orange Label Art + Advertising, one of Orange County, California’s longest-standing privately held advertising agencies, announces the launch of new online ad campaigns for Brand Affinity Technologies newest product, netBAT. Having worked with BAT since 2007, assisting with branding, design, advertising, search engine marketing and media planning, Orange Label was excited to work with BAT on netBAT’s online ad campaigns.

The netBAT platform provides users with a new interactive online editorial experience. netBAT “activates” online editorial photos of celebrities and athletes with apps that pull content from Twitter, Google, YouTube and other web content – ALL without making users leave the site. To experience netBAT, visit www.netBAT.com or visit one of the leading news or lifestyle sites, such as: Fox Sports, the New York Daily News, the San Francisco Chronicle – and look for the netBAT Logo on the editorial photos.

With the launch of netBAT in August, Orange Label has developed three multi-level online ad campaigns to run within the netBAT platform. “Our challenge was to create a message and design that would not only engage users, but also educate them real-time, since the ads are running within the netBAT window.” said Orange Label’s Integrated Account Supervisor, Alyse Vultee. Each of the ad campaigns were designed to build marketplace awareness for netBAT through creative “how-to” messaging, such as: We Bring The Apps To You. “Orange Label developed unique creative strategies for netBAT’s online ad campaigns, while delivering the quick turnaround we needed.” said Brand Affinity Technologies VP of Marketing, Allie Savarino Kline.

Real Results: Tulsa Rib Company Loyal Patron Club

Real Results
Tulsa Rib Company Loyal Patron Club

tulsa.jpg

Tulsa Rib Company, a leading, family-owned restaurant located in Tustin, CA, known for their legendary ribs, famous Tulsa  Potatoes, tasty barbecue and friendly people, has been working with Orange Label for the past several years.  It has been a goal, through the duration of the relationship between Tulsa and Orange Label, to create and implement effective marketing tactics, which generate real results.

Tulsa was looking for a way to say thank you to their many loyal Tulsa-goers, so Orange Label assisted in developing the Tulsa Loyal Patrons Club – an offer that rewards frequent customers by offering $10 towards the next Tulsa meal, for every $100 spent in the restaurant. To kick-start the promotion, the campaign was featured in ads running in OC publications and supported by in-restaurant promotion. The club proved to be a hit. Loyal Patrons were grateful for the rewards and the number of customers in the club has grown dramatically. It is safe to say there are even more loyal Tulsa-lovers now!

“Our Loyal Patron Program has increased traffic into the restaurant and increased guest check totals!”

- Liz Parker, Co-Owner of Tulsa Rib Company.

Web 3.0 on the Horizon

No Gravatar

Just when you thought that you finally understood the term “web 2.0”, people are now talking about “web 3.0”. Other than just trying to confuse you more, the idea behind web 3.0 doesn’t take you away from the ever so outdated 2.0 level.

As the technology grows and web 3.0 develops more into a form, we will start to see more web intelligence by semantic search queries and more relevant search data returned to us based on our history of searches. Browsers and search engines will be more understanding of what our tastes are and ultimately become more accurate. Returning personalized search results, not random data.

How would this work? Intelligent data can be gathered from traditional web 2.0 applications, user generated content and other information sharing sources to feed a 3.0 pipeline. Having the technology to understand your decisions and actions might help you make your decisions. HowStuffWorks.com demonstrated the following example:

“Instead of multiple searches, you might type a complex sentence or two in your Web 3.0 browser, and the Web will do the rest. In our example, you could type “I want to see a funny movie and then eat at a good Mexican restaurant. What are my options?” The Web 3.0 browser will analyze your response, search the Internet for all possible answers, and then organize the results for you.”

Below are some  slideshows that do a great job describing how these concepts work. Check them out!

Taking it to the next level…
Could your business or lifestyle use 3.0? What advances do you see happening in how the Advertising and Marketing world operate?

Great Ideas: Industry Edge; Fairhaven’s 2010 Interactive Web Platform

No Gravatar

Great Ideas:
Industry Edge; Fairhaven’s 2010 Interactive Web Platform

Approaching it’s 100th Anniversary, Fairhaven Memorial Park and Mortuary has created a legacy of helping families in Orange County make decisions in a difficult time. It’s with that reputation that Fairhaven continues to reach out to help the community with understanding, sympathy and educational tools to help people in sudden or prepared situations.

In 2010, Orange Label will launch a new web platform for Fairhaven’s existing website that will simplify the process and strengthen users’ understanding of funeral and mortuary planning online. Since the primary constituency is older and not web savvy, the platform will guide pre-planning or at-need users through a interactive counselor-simulated video and step-by-step educational and decision making process. The primary goal of the platform will allow people to make decisions in a organized manner. It will also allow for an understanding of what to expect before meeting with a Fairhaven counselor to finalize decisions.
