Execution
We partnered with Pacific Magazines to integrate mobile codes into 12 different titles. Not only did we drive awareness for mobile code technology, but we avoided advertising clutter by only using editorial environments, offering exclusive content to readers.We peppered mobile codes throughout their titles, linking readers to “exclusive backstage” content like:• Access to exclusive interviews• Additional paparazzi shots• Music downloads• Downloadable shopping listsEach magazine title tailored their use of Mobile Codes specifically for their readers, eg.• Marie Claire had mobile codes that lead to behind-the-scenes coverage of the cover shoot, exclusive music track downloads, mobile wallpaper downloads, additional beauty and fashion tips, charity helpline numbers and information. Editor Jackie Frank has even included mobile codes on her Editor’s Letter page.
• Men’s Health created a booklet, with mobile codes, linking to workout tutorial videos to take to the gym.
