Introducing the first local video player solution featuring Call Tracking, Click-to-Call, Save and Share features with local mapping and subtitling.
Barcelona, Spain—May 8, 2008—Today at the EADP Conference on Managing Directories in Barcelona, Spain, AgendiZe, the premier provider of call-to-action services, and Videoagency, the next generation video production company, announce their partnership to introduce the first local video player solution (LVPS) for small businesses. Now SMBs can present targeted, local video advertisements to their customers with convenient, built-in Call Tracking, Click-to-Call, Save and Share, and local mapping features.
“We decided to partner with AgendiZe because their Call-to-Action suite connects users with the widest array of social services, click-to-call, and local mapping features, and they offer deep experience working with the IYP industry,” said Thomas Owadenko, CEO Videoagency.tv. “By combining our next-generation video production network with their Call-to-Action services, we can present SMBs with a powerful local video player solution where consumers can not only watch local ads, but take immediate action when they see them.”
Videoagency’s local video player solution (LVPS) is powered by Videoagency’s next generation video network. Video content can be created by tapping into Videoagency’s global network of more than 4,000 filmmakers and can then be optimized and distributed across the web, utilizing Videoagency’s video search engine optimization (VSEO) tool to maximize the visibility of video content to search engines. Subtitles are also provided in partnership with Ply Media, and allow SMBs to target a much larger audience affordably.
Videoagency’s LVPS incorporates AgendiZe’s comprehensive Call-to-Action suite, making local video ads actionable for any SMB. Users that view local video ads can click-to-call the business or click-to-save and share business information or maps on Facebook, AIM, SMS, MySpace, del.icio.us, blogs, email and more than 100 services and devices. AgendiZe’s Call-to-Action capabilities make it easy for users to visit or contact local businesses, or spread the word virally to their friends—all while they are watching local ads powered by Videoagency’s LVPS. AgendiZe also provides unified reporting and tracking across all services, so SMBs can easily analyze their customer interaction and calls received.
“The challenge that most SMBs face with online video advertising is getting the customer to physically complete the last mile to visit their location in person or to pick up the phone and call them,” said Alexandre Rambaud, founder and CEO of AgendiZe. “Videoagency’s LVPS is the only local video solution that’s powered by AgendiZe’s Call-to-Action suite, which makes it easy and intuitive for a user to simply click-to-call, send a map to themselves or share the business’s info with their friends.”
The AgendiZe Call-to-Action Platform currently powers over 20 of the world’s leading online classifieds and directories, including Yellow Book USA, Yellow Pages Canada, QDQ Media and Editus, extending the reach and duration of any advertisers’ online content by making it possible for users to extract information from the Web and save it to different devices or share it with friends and colleagues. More than one million local advertisers use AgendiZe call-to-action services worldwide.
