Malibu Rum Launches Connected Bottles To Deliver Consumer Content

Malibu Rum Launches Connected Bottles To Deliver Consumer Content | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Some 40,000 bottles of Malibu rum are being shipped with NFC tags and go on sale Sept. 1. (In the how-sausage-is-made department, the NFC tags are applied to the bottles by passing them through a heat tunnel, which allows the tags to be smartphone readable after application.)

The bottles go on sale starting in 1,600 Tesco stores in the U.K.

No mobile app is required and consumers can use their phones to tap the bottles to unlock five digital experiences, according to SharpEnd....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

it seems that no product can escape the Internet of things. In the UK, Malibu rum is being sold with NFC tags which can share digital messages with consumers using a smart phone. Another interesting and creative digital marketing experiment.

6 Tools for Personalizing Marketing in the Digital Era

6 Tools for Personalizing Marketing in the Digital Era | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

In an age of automated everything, is it possible to put a personal touch to your marketing? Of course--even though customers are used to sites like Amazon and Pandora where they can get everything they need easily without ever talking to a person. Fortunately, businesses evolve right along with consumer demands. As the head of a marketing department, it's your job to research and adopt the right technology to make your company as effective as possible. Marketing automation isn't going anywhere, but that doesn't mean your entire marketing approach has to be robotic.

No matter what, customers want to feel like they matter, like they're heard, and like there's a real person on the other end of that transaction. Recently, Help Scout, which is also a really cool customer service tool, released a report on the "personalization" of marketing. It reveals that 70 percent of final purchases are dictated by how a person feels they're being treated as a customer....

Great sales tools to help you sell on social media more effectively.

Joseph Palumbo, MBA,'s curator insight, March 25, 2015 7:39 PM

I agree with the basic premise of this article. The more high tech tech we become the more high touch we must be. Customers remember 10% of what you told them 20% what you showed them and 70% of how you made them feel. Customers are emotional and irrational, is your sales approach matching their needs?

From The Founders of .Co, Pop.Co Is A Fast, Simple Way To Launch Businesses Online | TechCrunch

From The Founders of .Co, Pop.Co Is A Fast, Simple Way To Launch Businesses Online | TechCrunch | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

The company behind the .co domain has been working to associate .co websites with startups and innovation. Now its founders are trying to make it as easy as possible to start a business online with a new company called Pop.co.


thisBasically, Pop.co is a bundle of online services that should remove any barrier between coming up with a cool idea and building a web presence around that idea. This approach is particularly important in a future where entrepreneurs run “three or four micro-businesses at a time, easy come, easy go, and you don’t have to keep the domain forever,” said CTO Tom Lackner — he suggested you should even be able to set all this up from your smartphone.


Lackner and CEO Juan Diego Calle gave me a quick demo of Pop.co. You just pick the .co address that you’re interested in (assuming it’s available, and if it’s not, Pop.co will suggest alternatives), then the company automatically claims it for you, and you can either use Pop.co’s simple web page editor to create the page with just a little bit of typing, or use its simple DNS editor to point the website to a page you’ve created on another service like LaunchRock or Barley....

Think you know how to Google? Here are 35 search tips you probably don’t know about | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Google is kind of a big deal, to say the least. The tech giant has blossomed over the course of the past decade, quickly becoming part of the global lexicon, and establishing itself as an official verb in the dictionary. Although the company wears many hats, its most valuable asset has always been its phenomenal search engine.


Unfortunately, Google isn’t one to automatically recognize punctuation and grammar within search queries. However, the symbols and punctuation listed below are exceptions to the rules, ones that allow you to better refine your search results when used in conjunction with your desired search terms. Just don’t add any spaces between the symbol and your search phrases. Otherwise, Google will ignore your commands....
