Hilton have launched an iPhone and iPod Touch application designed to make life easier for visitors to their hotel chains. Some of the things visitors can achieve with this application is an “e-check in” up to 48 hours before arrival and ordering room service from mobile devices. It is taken from DMNews.com – a very successful direct marketing website.
It is a good example of “out of the box” thinking with mobile marketing. It is particularly good for experienced marketers looking for inspiration and new concepts for their own marketing mix.
