"Our patented technology will allow Park Place to continue being viewed as a customer-centric and forward-thinking dealership in today's constantly evolving digital world," said Jeff Spock, Director of Sales at Blue Calypso.

"Through the use of Blue Calypso's technology, we believe we can effortlessly deliver this need to each shopper in real-time to help accelerate the buying process as well as help consumers make a smarter purchasing decision."

During November, a different luxury vehicle, was strategically placed in areas with the heaviest foot traffic at NorthPark Center, and exhibited a sign directing consumers to opt-in via text codes to receive special pricing or learn more about the vehicle. Through this engagement, mall goers experienced a showroomesque atmosphere all in digital form, without straying from their weekend shopping trip.
