FOBI EVENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (EMS) FOR INEOS WENT LIVE JULY 18TH TO SUPPORT GLOBAL PROMOTION OF NEW 4X4. GPJ EXPECT FURTHER FOBI CUSTOM SOLUTIONS FOR CLIENTS

The INEOS Grenadier 4x4 is being promoted via a roadshow event across multiple countries and locations. INEOS is transporting prototypes of the vehicle to several locations within each region and required a solution to allow users to book test drives of the new 4x4.

Fobi’s new Event Management Solution (EMS) is a sophisticated, end-to-end resource for booking and ticketing developed using the Fobi Wallet pass, SimplyBook’s calendaring system and a client branded booking webpage which was custom built by Fobi. Fobi EMS allows INEOS to engage with their guests using a solution that manages resources, digitizes ticketing, and automates bookings and event-based notifications.

GPJ Creative Technologist, Zara Kerwood stated “Fobi has been instrumental in making this experience successful for INEOS with their Wallet pass solution that can be used to create a new and more efficient communication and ticketing tool that leverages the mobile wallet. We are excited to see the results and to work with FOBI on custom solutions for our other clients.”

Fobi CEO Rob Anson stated “We are experiencing great success with revenue generating deals working directly with agencies like GPJ. We are excited to be selected to build a custom solution for a top client such as INEOS that helps pave the way for better user experiences and assists enterprise clients in building end-to-end customer experience platforms. We are very confident in this project and are looking forward to working with GPJ on similar projects in the future.”

The expected success of this project and continued relationship with GPJ will open the door for FOBI to work with some of GPJ’s extensive client list including Fortune 500 companies such as Nissan, Jeep, Adobe, Samsung, Salesforce and others.

PROJECT MARKS FOBI’S CONTINUED TRANSITION TO PAID DEALS, WITH A CONTRIBUTION TO REVENUE THIS QUARTER & MOVING FORWARD

This deal will deliver solid revenue for Fobi this quarter, as well as monthly recurring revenue thanks to the fees for the Wallet pass licenses. This model will be easily repeatable with other GPJ client event related projects. As a result of our latest integrated booking product, we anticipate significant additional revenue generating contracts to be announced in the coming months.

GPJ RELATIONSHIP PART OF FOBI’S STRATEGY TO TARGET LARGE GLOBAL AGENCIES THAT PRESENT FOBI SOLUTIONS TO THEIR ENTERPRISE CLIENTS

Fobi’s unique EMS also enables a new marketing and engagement channel for businesses to increase lead generation and generate revenue. The solution enables businesses to utilize the Wallet pass to push notifications and engagements that enable a smoother customer experience and better customer acquisition.
