Motricity has the ability to reach over 200 million mobile users and the capability to deliver targeted marketing campaigns to the wide array of mobile devices and all operating systems in the marketplace, including Apple, Droid and BlackBerry which gives Cabela's the opportunity to deeply engage with their current and prospective customers. In addition, for every mobile campaign Cabela's launches, Motricity will track and quantify the effectiveness which enables Cabela's to measure ROI, as well as customize and prioritize future campaigns.

"With a large and geographically diverse customer base, mobile marketing is very strategic in driving growth for a recognized brand such as Cabela's," said Tyler Nelson, senior vice president of mobile marketing, advertising and analytics for Motricity.
