Great news everyone - Fortumo’s expansion continues with some countries in the south part of Europe. We’re talking about Bulgaria and Romania. They are the two new members in Fortumo’s list of countries.
As it has been constantly proved, Fortumo is always in the right place, at the right time. This is the situation again - the new EU members are working in cooperation for years, so it’s only natural that we launch our services there at one and the same time. Now every person from each of the two countries can create services in BOTH of them and earn revenue right at his home or office and in his country’s currency. This is something totally new for the region. And when we add the fact that there are 8 and even more countries to come…wow. Hurry up and visit the two respective sites:

In the same time, Fortumo Serbia is preparing to meet its official start, too. Currently we send invitations to selected people there and soon they will enrich us with their presence on our Fortumo map.

As a concluding paragraph - have a look at the map of the Balkans. Do you know which are the next countries to join our mobile family?

In April the giant Pepsi Cola started a viral marketing campaign that went on for 2 months and is considered to be their largest bluetooth event ever. It run on public places like bus shelters in Washington D.C., Los Angeles, Denver and Orange County, and pay phone kiosks in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia.

Each of these media networks has integrated Qwikker’s Bluetooth content distribution technology. Pepsi was offering wide clips on posters, with a particular code for access. The five offered clips were called “Pass The Mic” - hip-hop freestyle music provided by Yahoo Music.

In the first week of the Pepsi campaign, opt-in rates to download content were reported to be 27% across the network.

Have you ever thought of using such a campaign ever? Why not!

Fortumo’s plans are rapidly becoming real. In order to be really mobile, as the services that we offer, we wanted to expand to a few new countries. Earlier this month, we have started working in China, while now we are preparing to offer our services to the users of two new countries. Two of the most interesting detonations on the Balkan Peninsula. You wonder which they are - visit our blog in the forthcoming one maximum two weeks and you will see more.
