Wireless Ventures Selects Moonstorm CEO to Speak on Coupons for Mobile Phones
SAN JOSE, Calif. - May 2, 2006 - Moonstorm, an innovative mobile coupon solution provider, announced today that its CEO Brent Dusing will present on "Strategies for Mobile Couponing" May 4 during VentureWire's Wireless Ventures 2006 at The Fairmont in San Jose, California.
"Until now, the $7 billion coupon industry has forced retailers to overspend on paper coupons that offer anemic return rates," said Brent Dusing, CEO of Moonstorm. "This session will explore new solutions available to retailers that conveniently and cost effectively place coupons directly on consumers' mobile phones."
Dusing will also discuss existing consumer behavior resulting in mobile coupons achieving a redemption rate 20 times higher than far more expensive paper coupons. Given the ubiquity of mobile phones and consumer loyalty to the devices, retailers rest assured that their coupons are not lost, thrown out or forgotten.
