adidas Features Interactive Beckham Display

To promote the launch of the new David Beckham Predator Pulse collection, adidas has partnered with Angel.com, a provider of web-based advanced telephony solutions, to create a unique shopping experience for the soccer fan.

A toll-free number is advertised on the display, that consumers can call to hear from Beckham himself about the features of his new collection. Beckham also informs the caller that his new range of Predator footwear and apparel is the ultimate combination of performance technology and style.

This promotion takes point of purchase to the next level, allowing adidas customers to hear what a superstar athlete thinks of a new product line. At the same time, it provides valuable information regarding customer interest in the Predator collection, by tracking the number of people who call the toll free numbers from the stores.
