Pokemon Go and Mercedes-Benz

As many of you know, Pokemon Go seems to be one of the most popular gaming apps out these days. It is amazing to see how many kids, teens, and even adults are engaging and using Nintendo’s latest mobile game. Mercedes-Benz is also delving into the Pokemon Go craze, and using it as an innovative way to market vehicles to consumers. 

 

Our corporate marketing department has been sending out manuals on how to use lure modules to get Pokemon Go users to check in at Poke Stops near car dealerships. They are also working to get as many dealerships as possible to register as Poke Stops.

The numbers don’t lie with respect to what Pokemon Go has been able to accomplish in such a short time. Check out some of the latest stats:

· Pokemon Go has been downloaded 7.5 million times in the U.S. from the Google Play and iOS stores

· Pokemon Go has so far generated $1.6 million per day in revenue

· Users engage in the Pokemon Go app for at least 43 minutes per session, which is far greater than apps such as WhatsApp, Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook Messenger
