After the overwhelming success with the national Road Trip Rewards mobile marketing campaign, the natural next step was to provide website visitors a mobile-optimized experience that provided the same benefits as VisitMO.com in the palm of their hands as on home computers. Now, making travel plans for both local and out-of-state visitors is accessible no matter where they are located.

One important feature for the mobile site is the enhanced search functionality. Because it is for the on-the-go visitor, the user will decide how to narrow the search based on the location of an event, for example. This will be accomplished by selecting the destination’s region or city, zip code, or by utilizing the mobile device’s location to define their search.

SteadyRain partnered with BusyEvent for the development of the tradeshow iPad application (app), Engage, and the app’s website application complement. Developed with HTML 5 technology, Engage’s customizable design can be branded for each unique client and is designed to encourage tradeshow attendee participation. With the addition of the website application component, once the attendee registers with the iPad app, the attendee can visit the website application post-tradeshow or conference to review “favorite” items. The Engage iPad app is equipped with reporting functionality for the clients, which can include users’ behavior both on the iPad and website application.

FTL Finance partnered with SteadyRain to develop a mobile solution that would increase efficiency among FTL Finance contractors, eliminate paperwork in the field, and provide greater control over the organization of data in a web-based application. The end result: a custom, native iPad application.

Novus International, a developer of animal health and nutrition programs based on science, selected SteadyRain to develop a branded app for the Apple iPad. The Novus iPad app will be utilized as part of an interactive kiosk within Novus’s beef products trade show exhibits. The kiosk debuted at the National Cattlemen’s Conference in February 2011. The app is designed to collect booth visitor personal information while providing background information on Novus products and distributors. In addition to collecting visitor information and allowing vistors to request additional product literature, through the mobile device, the application will also offer those same visitors a chance to register for Novus’s exclusive, promotional giveaway at the event. This type of interactive mobile app is not only a fun way to gather lead data, but works as a promotional and marketing tool as well.

SteadyRain developed a custom iPad application as an interactive marketing tool and debuted it at the Missouri Division of Tourism's website launch and the Missouri Governor's Conference on Tourism. The concept was to design an iPad application and use it as a kiosk attraction while in the booth areas of the event. The heavily graphical app, features a retro travel and technology theme. A suitcase with stickers was used as the menu to the application that allows users to select SteadyRain services to explore. Once a user selects a specific category or service, they were taken deeper into the app that provides more information and details around that specific service offering. Additionally, the app incorporates audio and video as an avenue to highlight SteadyRain's multimedia capabilities. This slick iPad application was housed on custom-designed kiosk stand with a secure enclosure designed specifically for public kiosks. SteadyRain continues to get very positive feedback and a growing interest in our mobile app services based on the great success with this fun and intuitive application.

SteadyRain designed and developed this award-winning mobile website for Chamberlain College of Nursing by utilizing the same user-friendly content management system, DotNetNuke, which powers their traditional website.

The website automatically directs to the mobile site where visitors can find information on Chamberlain’s nursing programs, admissions, financial aid, locations, events and more. The mobile site also features an integrated lead form, RSVP forms for events, and direct links to Google Maps.
