strategies to engage volunteer advocates and create positive word-of-mouth for select brands of interest
to their consumer social network.

AirSonea among women will play a significant role in the 2014 US launch of the wheeze monitoring
device, once FDA regulatory clearance is achieved.
“This presents a tremendous opportunity to develop positive word-of-mouth advocacy among women
with asthma and mothers of children with asthma. For a small company like iSonea, this level of access
to key consumer audiences is both significant and efficient.”

for better asthma monitoring and the ways in which AirSonea addresses that need through rapid
detection and measurement of wheeze.”
This initiative will begin with extensive customer research conducted within the P&G Vocalpoint
community, to determine the most effective messaging for stimulating awareness and interest in the
asthma monitoring system. The campaign will launch in 2014 once AirSonea receives FDA 510(k)
clearance to market in the US.TREMOR™ is the word of mouth marketing organization developed by
