This presentation is from FunMobility's free webinar on how to become a mobile advertising Da Vinci, hosted by market researcher, Kevin Almeida.
He gave the Mona Lisa her smile. He set history’s first helicopter in motion. And he inspired a mystery/suspense novel read by more or less everyone on earth.
But even the great Leonardo Da Vinci himself might have struggled to create mobile ad campaigns that stood out from all the noise in today’s over-saturated marketplace.
Learn how you can build campaigns like a true Renaissance Master; campaigns that drive brand awareness and direct response in new and exciting ways.

• Simple images
• High-contrast colors
