Upon visiting a foreign city, every tourist who has a smartphone searches for that particular city’s guide
Our app uses the following keywords for Apple’s App Store to attract potential users: place2b, tbilisi, restaurant, night, event, offer, music, cinema, georgia, bar, pub, gallery, travel, shop, guide
It is worth mentioning that searching for most combinations of these keywords with ‘tbilisi’ (e.g. tbilisi night life) yields only our app as a result, as there are no other applications of this type neither for Tbilisi, nor for Georgia
Mechanics of advertising the app to tourists
• Screening of advertisements in Rustaveli & Amirani cinemas
• Publishing three animated 17 second shorts to Facebook & Youtube
• Enabling direct app downloads from Facebook Mobile via Mobile App Install Ads technology
• Providing 10% discount on all Bose products to first 100 downloaders of the app
• Distributing promotional material through our partners, such as major hotels and venues of the city
Marketing campaign for local community
