Abstract

A method and system of dispatching non-digital merchandise and/or allied services related code is described, via a device operable on a mobile communication network. The method involves providing a pre-defined code indicative of non-digital merchandise and/or allied services on a promotional medium, the promotional medium being viewable by a user. The predefined code is input via a device operable on a mobile communication network by the user. The pre-defined code is stored in a storage medium. The stored code is analyzed for determining consumer requirements, so as to extract requisite information from the storage medium. The information is extracted from storage medium according to the analyzed code. Extracted information is communicated to the consumer and merchandise provider via a device operable on a mobile communication network. Transformation of extracted information is performed simultaneously.

Claims

1. A method of dispatching non-digital merchandise and/or allied services related code, via a device operable on a mobile communication network, the method comprising:

(h) providing a pre-defined code indicative of non-digital merchandise and/or allied services on a promotional medium, the promotional medium being viewable by a user;

(i) accepting a predefined code input via a device operable on a mobile communication network from the user;

(j) storing the predefined code in a storage medium;

(k) analysing the code for determining consumer requirements, so as to extract requisite information from the storage medium;

(l) extracting information from the storage medium according to the analysed code;

(m) communicating extracted information to the consumer via a device operable on a mobile communication network; and

(n) performing transformation of extracted information simultaneously.

2. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein the device operable on a mobile communication network is selected from a Wireless Mobile Telephone, Personal Digital Assistant, a Personal communicator, or a Paging Device.

3. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein the predefined code is indicative of non-digital merchandise and/or allied services on a promotional medium viewable by the user.

4. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein, the promotional medium is print media, broadcast media and/or web media.

5. The method as recited in claim 4, wherein the print media is newspapers, magazines, journals, posters, billboards, or wall paintings.

6. The method as recited in claim 4, wherein the web media is Internet.

7. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein the storage medium is a Centralized Server.

9. The method as recited in claim 8, wherein the report is a market intelligence report.

10. The method as recited in claim 8, wherein the report is an interactive report.

11. The method as recited in claim 8, wherein the report is a conversion tracking report.

12. A system of dispatching non-digital merchandise and/or allied services related code, via a device operable on a mobile communication network, the system comprising:

(a) a user input device for accepting the pre-defined code indicative of a non-digital merchandise and/or allied services code input by a user via a device operable on a mobile communication network;

(b) a mobile communication network operator and user input transmitter for transmitting the pre-defined code indicative of a non-digital merchandise and/or allied services code input by a user viewable on a promotional media;

(c) a storage medium for storing the transmitted code, analysing the code for consumer requirements;

(d) a non-digital merchandise provider platform which provides requisite information;

(e) a communication network for connecting the platform with the storage medium;

(f) a data transformation unit for transformation of analysed data.

13. The system as recited in claim 12, wherein the promotional media is print media, broadcast media and/or web media.

14. The system as recited in claim 13, wherein the print media is newspapers, magazines, journals, posters, billboards, or wall paintings.

15. The system as recited in claim 13, wherein the web media is Internet.

16. The system as recited in claim 12, wherein the storage media is a centralized server.

17. The system as recited in claim 12, wherein transformation of analysed data is a report.

18. The method as recited in claim 17, wherein the report is a market intelligence report.

19. The system as recited in claim 17, wherein the report is an interactive report.

20. The system as recited in claim 17, wherein the report is a conversion tracking report.
