Augme Technologies, Inc., provider of the only end-to-end mobile marketing platform, announced
that it has commenced a mobile marketing campaign as part of a broad effort to re-launch
Delverde Pasta, a premium Italian pasta, in the U.S. market. The first stage of the mobile
campaign will engage consumers at popular D’Agostino stores throughout New York providing
convenient access to recipes that assist customers with their entertaining needs.
One of the world’s best pastas, Delverde is experiencing a resurgence and mounting a broad
marketing effort in the Northeastern United States. While the majority of initiatives will be
introduced in 2011, Delverde will benefit from an initial mobile marketing program in the fourth
quarter of 2010, which is being executed by their U.S. agency Harvey and Daughters.
―Augme’s AD LIFE mobile platform provides Delverde an opportunity to effectively communicate
and interact with its customers when they are most attuned to the product,‖ observed David
