REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Branch, the leading cross-platform solution for linking and measurement, has announced finalists for its first-annual Mobile Growth Awards this January. The company received 300+ nominations; 50 of the top campaigns from across the world made it to the judges' table and 8 of the top campaigns took home awards.

The award winners are companies and individuals who drive exceptional growth and innovation in mobile.

The program includes multiple award categories -- here are the winners across them.

Best Mobile Viral Campaign: Recognizing one of this year's most viral mobile marketing campaigns.

    --  Winner: Shivgangi Gupta, Limeroad.com
    --  Campaign: Limeroad.com wanted to drive virality through social sharing
        with friends. As part of the campaign, users can share selected product
        links with friends to reduce the price of the products. The value
        proposition is straightforward, invite more friends to 'cut the price'
        or get bigger discounts on your favorite products.

Best Overall Growth Campaign: A look at the campaigns that created new and innovative channels, techniques, tactics, or strategies to increase mobile growth over the past year.

    --  Winner: John Ostrowski, Brainly
    --  Campaign: Brainly wanted to increase retention by creating an optimal
        web to app experience for the end-user. By partnering with Branch,
        Brainly was able to reinforce its organic acquisition loop, which leads
        to more organic installs and more brand awareness.

Best Phygital Experience: Campaigns that transformed traditional offline marketing by blending the best of physical and digital to improve the consumer journey.

    --  Winner: Brita Voris, Wine.com
    --  Campaign: Wine.com takes advantage of all of their resources when
        building an omnichannel experience. Most recently, they started using QR
        codes on their packaging inserts to promote the Wine.com app which
        offers even better experiences and personalization than the web. They
        pair the QR code with an in-app exclusive offer to further incentivize
        users to convert.

Best Digital Transformation: Celebrate business innovation through digital transformation, resulting in increased engagement, user acquisition, or revenue.

    --  Winner: Ershad Ahamed, OVO (PT Visionet Internasional)
    --  Campaign: OVO wanted to provide customers with flexible payment and
        investment options during the pandemic to prevent churn. To do this, OVO
        supported digital transformation for previously unbanked/underbanked
        individuals by partnering with the government as an official e-money
        partner for Prakerja, a state-stimulus program to offer benefits for
        job-seekers who are impacted by COVID-19. OVO enabled beneficiaries to
        seamlessly activate an e-wallet, perform e-KYC or electronic-Know Your
        Customer, and receive the stimulus benefits without any physical
        interaction.

Best COVID Adaptation: Highlighting a feature or campaign designed to adapt to changing consumer needs during COVID.

    --  Winner: Marisa Johnson, Sanvello Health
    --  Campaign: Within days of the World Health Organization declaring
        COVID-19 a global pandemic, Sanvello leadership approved offering free
        Premium access to Sanvello -- evidence-based techniques, coping tools,
        and peer support -- for the next five months. The team quickly rallied
        to remove the paywall, issue a press release, pitch media outlets, draft
        user communications, prep every internal team, and more with the
        ultimate goal of helping as many people mentally affected by the COVID
        crisis as possible.

Best COVID Retention Campaign: Highlighting a campaign delivering an improvement in engagement and retention during COVID.

    --  Winner: Achint Setia, Myntra Designs
    --  Campaign: During lockdown in India, Myntra launched its content-led
        social commerce platform, Myntra Studio, to provide fashion inspiration
        and keep the audience engaged in the absence of commerce. Myntra
        launched the platform with 1000+ influencers who created their accounts
        on the platform and created shoppable, inspiration-led content at scale.

Best Onboarding Activation Campaign: Highlighting a highly successful mobile onboarding activation campaign.

    --  Winner: John Dickson, Hibbett City Gear
    --  Campaign: When Hibbett decided to take the leap into the mobile space,
        they knew they needed an enticing platform and smooth activation flow to
        be successful. Hibbett offered app-exclusive raffle entries to key
        sneaker releases where users had to download the app and create an
        account to enter. They provided CTAs at appropriate places in the user
        journey across web, social, SMS, push, email, etc. to capture users'
        attention.

Best Mobile Innovation: Recognizing creative thinking and outstanding innovation on mobile.

    --  Winner: Ratnesh Neema, Lenskart


    --  Campaign: Lenskart used a unique, high-tech implementation hidden behind
        deceptively simple UX to solve customers' biggest problems: size. To
        help customers determine the proper fit, how the glasses frame looked,
        and to provide a trial run, they built an integrated experience of 2
        features:


        --  1. Frame Size: it allows users to shortlist glasses which will fit
            them well, after taking just a selfie using our machine learning
            algorithm.
        --  2. Augmented Reality: by giving access to the camera,  glasses popup
            to users faces in 3D  with very high fidelity to give a near
            real-life experience of having them on.

"Huge congratulations to all of the winners. All our finalists have demonstrated excellence in innovation and creativity," said Mada Seghete, Co-founder and VP of Marketing at Branch.
