Nightclub-411 is the division of Text
Me 411 specializing in mobile marketing for bars and nightclubs around
the world.
Typically, a nightclubs key demographic is someone between 19 and 28 years old.
- coincidentally this is the same demographic that is the heaviest user of cell
phones. This group lives on their mobile, using it for far more than just
talking, they text, play games, listen to music, take pictures...etc. Virtually
every respected marketing professional agrees that the mobile phone symbolizes
the next "Holy Grail" in marketing world. Nightclubs all over Europe
have already been using the mobile to bring in customers. They have been sending
announcements, VIP passes and tickets all to the mobile phone. Now we see this catching
on in North America.
- The Luxor has teamed up with AT&T to provide VIP passes to it's customers.
- Crowbar in Miami send out DJ announcements to thousands of people.
- The Guvernment in Toronto blasts out mobile tickets to loyal fans.
The mobile marketing functionality of TextMe411 has
been used by bars and clubs for :
- Collecting customer information through promotions and contests using inbound SMS.
- Sending event reminders to customers.
- Sending coupons and passes (i.e. line bypass, no cover, etc.) directly to the phones
of high-value customers.
Here is a sample event flyer asking the customer to text in for a guest pass:

Using the optional 411 API, Text Me fuctionality can be integrated directly into
