Skype To Start Showing Ads

March 7, 2011

Skype for Windows will begin offering advertisements this week to customers in the U.S., U.K. and Germany. According to an official company blog post this morning, the VoIP calling service will feature ads in the Home tab area of its Windows-based software. Customers can expect one ad per day (for now) from companies like Groupon, Universal Pictures, and Visa, writes Doug Bewsher, Skype’s chief marketing officer. The ads will be based on “non-personally identifiable demographic data (e.g. location, gender and age),” Bewsher writes, adding that customers can request that Skype withhold this information from advertisers. “The ads won’t interrupt your Skype experience,” says Bewsher. “You won’t suddenly see annoying pop-up ads or flashy banner ads in middle of conversations.” Since the majority of Skype’s users hold free accounts, it’s a logical move for the company to make ads a prominent part of the user interface. “We think this is an interesting opportunity for advertisers,” Bewsher told AdAge. “This is a premium placement to engage with our users.” “The company said paying users may also receive advertising, though that may change over time,” AdAge reports . The placement and frequency of these ads may change too, according to Skype . Below, you can see an example of Skype for Windows displaying an advertisement in the Home tab.

Kohl’s Lets `Black Friday’ Customers Prepare Holiday-Special Lists Online

November 19, 2009

By Inyoung Hwang Nov. 19 (Bloomberg) — Kohl’s Corp. , the fourth-largest U.S. department-store chain, will let customers create shopping lists online to help them locate holiday specials before they set out to buy gifts. Visitors to Kohls.com can print out pictures and prices of items that will be available the day after U.S. Thanksgiving, the traditional start of the holiday shopping season. The service is available from Nov. 22 through Nov. 27, the Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin-based chain said in a statement. Thanksgiving falls on Thursday, Nov. 26, in the U.S. this year. The following day, known as “Black Friday,” merchants extend business hours and offer “door buster” discounts to attract customers. A trade group is predicting holiday sales may rise as little as 1 percent from last year as unemployment continues to curb consumer spending. “In a tough economy for our customers, pre-shopping and planning their shopping are more important than ever because they really have to stretch their budgets,” Julie Gardner , Kohl’s chief marketing officer, said in a telephone interview yesterday. “If we have a list, we stay well within our budget more.” Kohl’s stores will open at 4 a.m. on Black Friday. The company will offer “early bird” specials on some items and issue $10 coupons for every $50 spent at stores or online. Kohl’s fell 72 cents, or 1.3 percent, to $54.70 at 4:15 p.m. yesterday in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. The shares have gained 51 percent this year before today. The U.S. jobless rate last month stood at 10.2 percent, a 26-year high. U.S. holiday sales may rise 1 percent to 2 percent this year, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers, a New York-based trade group.
