Calix Marketing Cloud now includes a cost-effective channel for delivering timely, tailored, and visually rich messages directly to the palm of the subscriber’s hand

Calix, Inc. announced its latest enhancement to the Revenue EDGE solution which includes the launch of event-driven Mobile Notifications, an automated, cost-effective, direct to subscriber channel for marketers through Calix Marketing Cloud and the CommandIQ app. Mobile Notifications are the latest addition to a comprehensive go to market solution that covers everything from segmentation through enablement—including customizable, market-ready creative assets.

With these enhancements to EDGE Insights and EDGE Enablement, Calix delivers a holistic marketing approach that has been recognized as the industry’s best by the Broadband Multimedia Marketing Association (BMMA) for three consecutive years.

“Calix provides critical resources that enable us to scale our marketing efforts, and the new Mobile Notifications will add a cost-effective method for reaching our subscribers immediately,” said Wendy Crenner, marketing manager for Kansas-based SCTelcom. “The market activation content they continue to develop has saved us weeks and enabled us to be strategic with where we invest our resources. As great as the marketing tools and solutions are, it is the partnership we have formed with the Calix team that has really made our success possible. Calix has helped us establish our brand in the marketplace and reinforce it with our subscribers.”
