Price comparison apps Allow shoppers in store locations to quickly find out if they can get a better price online Compare prices by scanning a bar code, snapping a picture of a product, speaking its name into the phone or typing the name. Offline retailers’ worst nightmare. Takes away offline retailers’ biggest advantage: once shoppers have driven to the store, they have added incentive to make a purchase
Amazon is also trying crowdsourcing: recruiting shoppers to collect prices in offline stores so it can try to beat them.
Final thoughts here
What take aways can we provide to class based on marketing material? Statistics:Mobile Web – The number of people accessing the mobile Internet is growing fast and is expected to overtake the PC as the most popular way to get on the Web withinfive years.Mobile Hours – Average Americans spend 2.7 hours a day “socializing” on a mobile device (i.e. instant messaging, social media apps, SMS, etc.).My thought…that’s all?Mobile Marketing – But 79% of large online advertisers still do not have a mobile optimized site.Mobile Apps – 1 in 4 mobile apps once downloaded is never used again.In short, Mobile devices, mobile marketing, and mobile apps are not going away. My advice, get in while it’s hot…!
