Abstract

A method and architecture for managing a communication campaign direct toward a plurality of media consumption devices associated with a common user (101), including obtaining communication addresses for each of the plurality of media consumption devices (110, 116, 122) associated with the common user, associating the common user with a communication campaign, and prompting transmission of communications to the common user via the plurality of media consumption devices based on a campaign policy.

Claims

1. A method for managing a communication campaign among a plurality of media consumption devices associated with a common user, the method comprising:

obtaining communication addresses for each of the plurality of media consumption devices associated with the common user;

associating the common user with a communication campaign;

prompting transmission of communications to the common user via the plurality of media consumption devices based on a campaign policy.

2. The method of claim 1, associating the common user with the communication campaign based on a behavioral profile of the common user.

3. The method of claim 1, associating the common user with the communication campaign based on a contextual profile of the common user.

4. The method of claim 1, prompting the transmission of communications to the common user based on a campaign policy that controls diversity of communications about a particular topic.

5. The method of claim 1, prompting the transmission of communications based on a campaign policy that controls a frequency with which the communications are transmitted.

6. The method of claim 1, prompting the transmission of communications based on a campaign policy that controls a frequency with which the communications are transmitted to each of the media consumption devices associated with the common user.

7. The method of claim 1, prompting the transmission of communications based on a campaign policy that increases a frequency with which the communications are transmitted as an event occurrence approaches.

8. The method of claim 1,

the communications comprise different episodes,

prompting the transmission of the communications based on a campaign policy that controls which episode of the communication is transmitted to which of the media consumption devices.

9. The method of claim 1,

the communication comprises a sequence of episodes,

prompting the transmission of the communications based on a campaign policy prompts transmission of the episodes of the sequence in a predetermined order based on prior communications with the common user on the plurality of media consumption devices.

10. The method of claim 1,

obtaining profile information for each of the media consumption devices,

selecting a communication, consistent with the communication campaign, for each of the media consumption devices based upon the profile information,

prompting transmission of the communications includes prompting the transmission of the selected communications to each the corresponding media consumption devices based on the campaign policy.

11. The method of claim 1, prompting transmission of communications to the media consumption devices includes prompting transmission of media to the media consumption devices, wherein the media may be presented at a user interface of the media consumption devices.

12. The method claim 11, tracking performance metrics of the communication campaign associated with the common user.

13. The method claim 11, tracking performance metrics based upon interaction information provided media consumption devices.

14. The method claim 11, tracking performance of the communication campaign as it relates to one of the plurality of media consumption devices based upon the interactive information obtained from at least one other media consumption devices associated with the common user.

15. A method for managing a communication campaign among a plurality of media consumption devices, the method comprising:

directing a communication campaign toward a user associated with a plurality of media consumption devices;

tracking performance metrics of the communication campaign based upon interactive information obtained from the plurality of media consumption devices associated with the common user.

16. The method claim 15, directing the communication campaign toward the user by prompting transmission of communications to the plurality of media consumption devices based upon a campaign policy.

17. The method claim 15, tracking performance of the communication campaign as it relates to one of the plurality of media consumption devices based upon the interactive information obtained from at least one other media consumption devices associated with the common user.
