APAC-Based Organisations to Gain Access to Leading Social Media Marketing Platform
Stonebridge Systems today announced that it has partnered with UK-based EngageSciences to offer the EngageSciences social media marketing platform to Asia-Pacific-based organisations. This platform enables global brands, such as Nokia, Stella Artois, Rakuten Group, Sony, Spotify, WPP and BBDO Networks to build and manage social media campaigns as well as apps and pages that attract fans, engage followers and amplify advocates on social media networks.
“EngageSciences’ focus on providing unique software solutions to achieve marketing results on social channels fits well with our vision of optimising digital marketing channels for clients,” said Craig Broadbent, CEO, StoneBridge Systems. “Our clients are looking for ways to use social media to drive web traffic and make their websites more social. The EngageSciences platform helps us achieve both these objectives for customers.”
Organisations which have adopted the EngageSciences platform in recent years have seen an uplift in the commercial value of customers by up to 30 per cent through having them engaged on social channels, thereby increasing both brand advocacy and socially referred commerce.
EngageSciences enables organisations to easily build campaigns to gain fans, and then engage with those fans through various methods such as gamification, quizzes, competitions, coupons, and loyalty rewards. Brands can both find and amplify their advocate voice through publishing this content back to their websites. At the same time, organisations gain valuable analytics that help build out future campaigns which in turn continue to help increase and amplify web site traffic.
“Stonebridge Systems has already established a tremendous track record of helping enterprise-scale customers optimise the customer experience of their websites and content management solutions,” said Richard Jones, CEO of EngageSciences. “By working together, we will be able to provide our customers with a platform and services to drive measureable return from social marketing, as well as delivering the next generation of socially integrated websites.”
StoneBridge Systems will both sell and support EngageSciences solutions throughout the Asia Pacific region targeting both ecommerce and large brand marketing organisations. By integrating EngageSciences technology with other optimisation products such as Baynote, StoneBridge Systems can offer its customers more robust ecommerce and brand marketing opportunities.
