Digital Strategy
*WAVE HELLO* - We connect brands with their audience in the most direct and engaging way possible, through the devices people love most and always have with them.
With teams in Berlin, Seattle, Santa Monica, Munich, Ingolstadt, London & Shanghai we offer strategy, design and development services for all things mobile:

AUGMENTED SERVICE OFFERINGS
We believe that in a couple of years every physical product (running shoes, toothbrushes, bicycles, coffee machines, kitchen utensils, scales, drilling machines, you name it…) will be combined with a digital mobile service (loyalty, brand building, value adds, support, up/x-sell, …) that will enhance the product experience all-up.
This will unlock huge potential not only for advertising, but for new products itself. Therefore, the lines between product and advertising will blur and something new will evolve: augmented service offerings.
We are strategically focusing on this area as we are convinced it is where a mobile device can be most powerful in transforming entire customer experiences.

PRODUCT EXPERIENCES
We design and implement UIs for all kinds of mobile products and devices, from mobile phones to in-car systems. our skills go from research and strategy/concepting to UX and visual design to user testing to bulletproof specification to prototyping and full implementation as apps, HTML or native builds on many different platforms (mostly in that order).
To give you some examples: we designed the very first color icons for the Sony Ericsson T610, the next-gen Android UI for one of the big handset makers, the dashboard UI for next year’s #1 luxury sports sedan and the first full-touch UI for a whole product line of microwaves and ovens.

MOBILE MARKETING
We plan, concept, design, build, run, analyze and optimize mobile marketing and loyalty programs.
End deliverables can be mobile ads, m-sites, apps, sms/mms programs, m-wallets/coupons, demos, and in-store activation. These can be stand alone or integrated into digital, TV, print, out-of-home retail and events.
We continually push what mobile can do for your brand, both from a customer and technical perspective. Our decade long experience in mobile design and mobile web technology, combined with our strategic planning, creative and development chops = awesomeness!
