Nickelytics Partners With Serve Robotics And The Ad Council For A New Kind Of Advertising

Nickelytics

Interested in investing in Nickelytics Republic’s campaign? Click here to get started. No matter how old you are, you are likely familiar with Smokey Bear’s relentless fight to protect our national forests against wildfires. This year, the Smokey Bear campaign celebrated its 78th birthday, making it America’s longest-running public service announcement (PSA) campaign with the catchphrase “Only You Can Prevent Wildfires.” Now more than ever, people need to help stop the spread of wildfires. Nickelytics announced recently that it is partnering with the autonomous delivery company Serve Robotics and the Advertising Council to deliver the longest-running PSA campaign to a new platform — delivery robots. Nickelytics is a hyperlocal out-of-home (OOH) advertising company that wants to revolutionize the OOH industry. The company is bringing OOH into the 21st century, and its partnership with Serve Robotics is just one part of its strategy. The Ad Council’s Smokey will be wrapped around Serve Robotics delivery robots in Los Angeles, increasing wildfire prevention awareness in a region frequently affected by blazes. Serve Robotics has developed level-four self-driving robots that have completed tens of thousands of deliveries across Los Angeles for Uber Eats and various other delivery platforms. This ad campaign will be promoted in highly visible areas of Los Angeles. "We are thrilled to partner with Serve Robotics to pioneer an exciting new form of out-of-home advertising," said Judah Longgrear, co-founder and CEO of Nickelytics. "Launching this campaign with Smokey Bear is a significant milestone for our team and only the beginning of our expansion in the Los Angeles market. We look forward to amplifying Smokey’s message and measuring the expected increase in campaign engagement using our real-time digital measurement capabilities." Ad Council Vice president of Emerging Media & Technology Laurie Keith said the organization is constantly strategizing innovative ways to reach people that complement or go beyond traditional media. With nearly 9 out of 10 wildfires nationally caused by humans, it’s important for everyone to do their part to prevent unwanted fires. "Our new partnership with Nickelytics will allow us to share Smokey Bear’s message on eye-catching delivery robots and share critical information in an unforgettable way," Keith said. Nickelytics’ proprietary technology and advertiser relationships made the company an ideal partner to help Serve Robotics bring out-of-home advertising to its growing autonomous delivery platform, Serve Robotics Chief Operations Officer Touraj Parang said. "We are delighted to increase public awareness of wildfire prevention while helping reduce emissions and traffic congestion in Los Angeles with our friendly sidewalk robots," Parang said. Serve Robotics and Nickelytics have entered into an ongoing partnership to offer advertising opportunities to companies. The major reason Nickelytics is distinguishing itself from other OOH advertising companies is that its platform uses GPS and cellphone location tracking. This component of its platform makes advertising more successful for clients, allowing companies to retarget with digital ads. Nickelytics is demonstrating its commitment to revolutionizing the OOH advertising space with this partnership. In addition to autonomous robots, the company is working to expand into the electric vehicle space. Nickelytics, a Techstars backed startup, is a platform that makes launching hyper-local out-of-home advertising as simple as posting online ads. Nickelytics brings together the physical presence of outdoor advertising with the power of digital technology for unbeatable results. Nickelytics leverages out-of-home advertisements through premium mobile assets, such as gig economy vehicles, autonomous delivery robots, e-scooters and electric vehicle charging networks to help marketers reach customers regardless of location. Mobillity asset owners also receive another stream of revenue by partnering with marketers. With the help of Nickelytics’ analytics, companies can better comprehend their return on ad spend thanks to Nickelytics’ sophisticated attribution and digital retargeting capabilities.

Blend Is Building a Future Where Proactive Finance Revives the Primary Banking Relationship

Blend Labs Inc.

In a market where the average household has about five different financial provider relationships, financial institutions have become eager to find strategies that incentivize consolidating financial products with just one financial institution. That financial fragmentation has been driven largely by the rise of technology enabling innovative and intuitive financial products that empower customers to make more informed decisions and be more proactive about their financial health. Blend Labs Inc. (NYSE: BLND), a data-driven banking software provider, says that financial institutions are at a crossroads where they either need to adapt to this new distributed reality or commit to incorporating new technologies in a way that improves the user experience and promotes loyalty. That’s why it’s developed a consumer banking platform that empowers banks to offer personalization, convenience and streamlined functionality to customers. To Counteract Financial Fragmentation, Banks Must Embrace Proactive Finance Proactive finance is one of the latest trends in banking. It’s an approach that leverages data and technology to offer financial products based on a customer’s behavior, current financial situation and other clues that can tell banks what kind of products that customer might need right now. For example, when a homeowner’s property value increases, the bank might reach out to let the customer know and then offer information and what next steps they could take based on that information — such as applying for a home equity line of credit or cash-out refinance to fund renovations or a down payment on a second home. Blend is building toward a future in which banks could proactively sending a mortgage preapproval, featuring a shortened list of the few options that most closely align with those specific customers — such as showing VA home loans to current or former military personnel or FHA and other low down payment options to first-time homebuyers. While this future of proactive delivery is still in development, lenders are already leveraging Blend to minimize tedious data entry and maximize operational efficiency. The data foundation that will enable proactive finance is already hard at work simplifying application flows, pre-filling information, and automatically validating data, freeing consumers and loan teams alike to focus on the things that matter most. This approach upends the traditional transactional nature of banking in which banks wait for customers to make a direct request for a certain product or service before offering it. That kind of cohesive and streamlined proactive banking experience, Blend says, is the key to rebuilding that primary banking relationship with customers. How Financial Institutions Are Leveraging Proactive Finance As promising as proactive finance approaches are, the question of implementation remains a challenge. While some financial institutions are investing in data restructuring or implementing new staff training that emphasizes personalized service, it’s not always enough. Blend’s cloud-based software offers a third approach to implementation: leveraging technology that can both anticipate and serve each customer’s needs. For customers, the platform eliminates much of the manual work in filling out applications by allowing the bank to prefill forms using the data it already has on file. For banks, digital tools like Blend Income Verification and the remote online notarization platform cut a lot of the redundancies and delays in the application process so customers can get approved — and funded — faster. Independent Bank Corp. (NASDAQ: INDB) subsidiary Rockland Trust Bank was able to shave seven days off the average application processing time for its customers, for example. Similarly, Blend helped Bank of Montreal (NYSEARCA: FNGU) subsidiary BMO Harris Bank cut five days off its mortgage and home equity application cycles. In the future, the platform aims to offer banks the artificial intelligence (AI)-driven tools they need to create a more personalized and proactive banking experience by helping customers understand their current financial situation and sending the right offers at the right time. That data and AI will strengthen the relationship between customers and banks by making it easier for customers to get all the financial services and support they need from a single institution and on a single, intuitive platform. The proactive finance approach that Blend will make possible also allows banks to better anticipate a customer’s needs so that they can send offers and recommendations that help that customer better understand what kind of options are available, including options they might not have known to ask about. Powering the Future of Banking Blend is the infrastructure powering the future of banking. Financial providers—from the largest banks, fintechs, and credit unions to community and independent mortgage banks—use Blend’s platform to transform banking experiences for their customers. Blend powers billions of dollars in financial transactions every day. This post contains sponsored advertising content.

The Market Votes: Amesite Releases Study of E-Learning Success For Global Company

Amesite Inc.

Learn More about Amesite Inc. by gaining access to the latest research report The results are in for a study on Amesite Inc.’s (NASDAQ: AMST) eLearning platform, and it looks like a resounding success. Amesite, which harnesses cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) to deliver customizable courses through its white-label platform, completed a case study in October on EWIE Group of Companies (EGC), a large company that used Amesite’s technology to upskill its global workforce. Companies everywhere are realizing the new challenges of training and upskilling their employees in a remote economy. But many are held back by old-fashioned learning systems that are no longer fit for that purpose. As companies look for modern online platforms, the corporate eLearning market has grown to $117 billion. EGC’s search for an eLearning solution led it to partner with Amesite for its integrated, easy-to-access learning platform. As a commodity-management services company, EGC sought a solution for both retaining and upskilling its employees. With the outcome of the collaboration published, Amesite feels like it’s gotten an A+ on a difficult test. Results Of Study May Indicate Strong Performance When EGC approached Amesite, it faced several challenges. It needed learning tools that ensured employee engagement across the company, but it struggled to surmount this problem without integration of its educational courses across its platforms. With nearly 1,000 employees at over 240 factories around the globe, EGC needed a scalable solution for upskilling their employees that would be accessible to all. Amesite provided a solution with its customized Learning Community Environment ® (LCE SM ), rolling out access to 53 courses for EGC employees in just four days. Before the end of the first quarter, employees were scoring 91% on the learned material that had a target pass score for passing of 70%. While Amesite operates in a similar space to Coursera Inc. (NYSE: COUR) and Powerschool Holdings Inc. (NYSE: PWSC), it sees its platform as a more thoroughly accessible option. Its white-label system is customizable for a company or educational institution’s specific needs, while its AI provides updated information for learners, within an infrastructure that is intuitive and easy to navigate. “Having people with the most advanced skills is a huge competitive advantage for us,” EWIE Group of Companies President Jay Mullick said. “Amesite is at the center of all our business process training at EGC. We have appreciated the support of their team throughout the relationship. Using Amesite’s global upskilling technology platform enables our people to gain the know-how to meet our most demanding customers’ needs quickly and efficiently.” To learn more about Amesite, visit its website. Amesite Inc., an artificial intelligence driven platform and course designer, provides online products in the United States. The company uses machine learning to offer a mass customized experience to learners. Its customers include businesses, universities and colleges, K-12 schools, and non-profit organizations.

US Navy Veteran Todd Harmon Talks Shop and Shares Growth Strategies for Minuteman Press Franchise in Cincinnati

Minuteman Press International Inc

US Navy Veteran Todd Harmon is no stranger to owning his own business. Prior to joining the Minuteman Press franchise family in April 2018, Todd had previously owned other small businesses and franchises. His Minuteman Press design, marketing, and printing center is located in the Kenwood area of Cincinnati, Ohio, at 7681 Montgomery Road. In this interview, Todd shares why he chose Minuteman Press, how his military and business experience has helped him in the printing industry, and how products such as signage and mailings with a heavy focus on Every Door Direct Mail have helped spur the growth of his printing business. What is your professional background? Todd Harmon: “I am a United States Navy Veteran. Prior to franchising, I owned an independent small business that manufactured new and refurbished pallets in the wood products industry. I have also previously owned two other franchises in the retail and restaurant industries. I chose Minuteman Press due to its #1 ranking in print franchising and the excellent work-life balance it would provide my family. Both of my children now work in the business with me. It also appealed to me as a privately owned company with a great royalty structure for franchisees.” What has the support from Minuteman Press International been like for you? Todd Harmon: “Local support from my field rep Ryan McIntyre and RVP Gary Nowak has been outstanding. They are a great resource when I need to discuss hiring/personnel and major business decisions. The FLEX software support team is always very responsive to our needs.” How do you describe your business and capabilities to potential clients? Todd Harmon: “I explain to clients that we are actually a print and small business marketing and consulting firm. Because of my previous business experience owning two other successful local franchises prior to Minuteman Press, I can really relate to these folks and help them reach their target customers through effective print and mail marketing strategies. Our customer service and fast turnaround times really set us apart from the competition.” What are the high-demand products and services that have really been helpful for your clients? Todd Harmon: “Signage, including installation if applicable, with fast turnaround times have really helped our clients. We can drop ship anywhere for them even on weekends. Quick design services for budget-conscious small businesses are much-appreciated by our customers. Our #1 key growth area is in direct mail services. We have also built a very strong Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) business. We work with and educate our customers through every step of the EDDM process.” What are some of the key ways you’ve grown your business? Todd Harmon: “Our high level of customer service and fast turnaround times have led to many referrals. We have grown through participation in a local BNI networking group. I am committed to consistent SEO/SEM marketing, email blasts, direct mail, and always promoting our EDDM services at every opportunity.” How would you best describe your community? Todd Harmon: “We enjoy a very dense business community around our shop. There are offices, medical facilities, restaurants, and many non-profit firms in our local area, as well as schools and many large church organizations. All of our clients demand a high level of professional customer service that we strive every day to meet.” Why do you think printing remains so vital to businesses today? Todd Harmon: “Print is a more trustworthy advertising medium and can allow you to reach a more targeted audience. For instance, I believe an engaging, tangible EDDM mail piece with a strong offer will yield a higher ROI than other advertising mediums, especially for restaurants and home repair/service businesses.” What are the biggest rewards of owning your business? Todd Harmon: “Following my military service, I have always owned my own business. I get great satisfaction from operating a profitable customer service focused small business. I enjoy the challenge.” What advice would you give to other owners right now? Todd Harmon: “Minuteman Press gives you the freedom to make the print shop your own, allowing you to focus on your strengths. Embrace it and have fun. Also, h ire staff that will help you build a culture of customer service in your shop. ” Todd Harmon’s Minuteman Press franchise is located at 7681 Montgomery Road, Cincinnati, OH 45236.

Adam Nasir A Fast Rising SaaS Founder Has Created The Perfect Software Solution After A Google Search Failed To Help

Smarter Contact

Adam Nasir, the founder of Smarter Contact began his professional career as a real estate investor, purchasing and selling hundreds of properties. The year was 2017, and he was looking to close more deals in his business by reaching out to a large number of people in a short amount of time. He found texting was helping him get their attention faster. Wondering if he could send many messages at once, he ‘Googled’ it and didn't find a good solution. That is when the initial idea of "Smarter Contact" came to his mind, and he never looked back. “I was surprised to see no one was taking advantage of SMS marketing. People are glued to their phones 24/7 - young or old, our phones are with us at all times, so it’s a no-brainer for businesses to communicate on this channel. My goal was to build personal relationships from my businesses directly with consumers. Fast forward a few years, this is what we are helping businesses do with Smarter Contact.” Revealed Adam. Smarter Contact is an outbound SMS marketing software with a built-in CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system. It became really successful due to the user interface being both highly effective at nurturing leads in all stages and simple to use. Sean Terry, CEO of Flip2Freedom and one of their top customers is quoted as saying “ Smarter Contact is hands down the best lead-gen tool. I've tried every SMS software out there, this is the only one that truly delivers ” Smarter Contact provides its customers with an all-in-one solution to convert and close more leads. The software provides many valuable services like a robust CRM, skiptracing, a phone system, and ringless voicemail (RVM) amongst many other valuable tools for businesses to stay in touch. Text messages have been proven to have a 99.8% open rate, which is significantly higher than the current email open rate hovering around 25%. “You’re probably holding your phone right now as you’re reading this. Your customers are no different - they have their phones with them all the time. Mobile marketing is hands down the most effective at getting attention…” Suggested Adam. Using his software personally, Adam 6xed his own real estate business. He realized that this could genuinely benefit other businesses in the country. The initial version of the software took off in its first year of launch and delivered so many results for clients that he realized this was going to be big. Like most startups, Smarter Contact had its share of teething problems. In early 2020 the original software developer who helped bring Adam’s vision to life disappeared, without any documentation to continue. Adam wasn’t going to let go of his dream that easily. On the verge of losing everything, he found a team of software developers in Ukraine that stabilized and further optimized the text messaging software. “We are relentlessly focused on our customers and their experience. We have spent a lot of time making the software as easy to use as possible. So that anyone who uses the software can jump in and figure it out while receiving the highest conversion possible.” explains Adam. Smarter Contact is a fast-growing SaaS company that started with a small team. Due to the company's immense success, a recent business expansion has occurred, and the Smarter Contact team has grown over 50 employees in 3 years. The company has now branched out into many industries, including for real estate agents, ecom, lending, automotive offering tailor-made SMS marketing solutions for companies all over America.
