Guinness is using Proxama's TapPoint platform to power its NFC infrastructure
Guinness, the world's number one stout, is launching a new mobile marketing campaign using near field communication (NFC) technology in pub pumps to interact with consumers.
The new technology has already been activated in 11,500 pub founts across the UK and 3,000 in Ireland.
Stonegate Pub Group outlets in the UK are the first to trial the new marketing tool, which will run in 20 outlets until the end of August.
Within these outlets, consumers can enable NFC technology by tapping their smartphone against the brand's harp logo on newly installed "magic behind the gates" Guinness founts, to see if they have won a complimentary pint of Guinness.
Nick Britton, marketing manager for Guinness Western Europe at Diageo, the company that owns the brand, said: "The new NFC activity shows how we have implemented the latest technology in our founts to keep our audience engaged, whilst rewarding them with offers, vouchers, competitions and content."
Guinness is using Proxama's TapPoint platform to power its NFC infrastructure. Proxama said Guinness was the first drinks brand to use NFC in this way.
As the ‘Asian century’ becomes ever more prevalent and the Fourth Industrial Revolution gathers speed, marketers are having to surf a tidal wave of creative destruction. The choice is stark: Embrace change, or resign yourself to a Darwinian fate.
Many marketers, agencies - and everyone in between - get caught up on bubble references and data points. They’ll use Facebook best practice as the only best practice for Facebook executions and only consider metrics and responses of the one channel they’re expected to deliver on.
A few weeks ago, our Prime Minister, Scott Morrison took it upon himself to tell companies and their CEOs where to go when it came to societal issues. It wasn’t an organisation’s place to get involved. Instead, he said it should be left to governments to solve societies challenges.
In this bonus last episode of this new podcast series, BrandHook MD, Pip Stocks, talks with former ANZ group general manager of marketing, Louise Eyres, talks about the importance of thinking like a customer and using intuition to solve customer painpoints.
