The Salesforce Marketing Cloud Mobile SDK enables you to build apps with rich push capabilities, including custom single-page applications, persistent inbox messages, silent push messages, in addition to the basic alert messages. Join us for a live demo, annotated with best practices and narrative instruction for implementing the Marketing Cloud Mobile SDK into existing iOS and Android applications. We'll focus on implementing the SDK on the simplest possible basis, concluding in a successful push message sent to test devices.

7. Enables eight amazing
push variations
1. Alert Messages
2. Cloud Page Messages
3. Alert with Cloud Page
4. Timed/Scheduled Messages
5. Transactional Messages
6. Silent Notifications
7. Geofenced Messages
8. Beacon Messages

8. Alert Messages
Alert messages show your
application’s icon, and a bit of text
here.

9. Cloud Page Inbox
messages (with or without
Alert)
Amazing alert message that opens to
http://www.myAmazingProduct.com/
unbelievableSavings
Not actually push messages (shhh.)
We pull these messages down to the device and persist them in an “inbox” like
system.

10. Timely messages
Users won’t see this message until
3:15pm on Wed Sept 16th.
You can even honor time zones, so
users won’t see this message until
3:15, in their time zone.

11. Transactional Messages
Thanks for joining us today. We know
you have a wide choice in buying
gas, and we’re glad you chose us.
Attached is your receipt.

12. Silent Notifications
The user is not aware that a push notification has arrived.

13. Beacon Messages
Did you know you’re within 3miles of
our best retail store?, it’s right over to
your right. Your other right. Yeah, just
next to the mall.
These are not Push messages either, but pulled. These messages are activated
Whenever the end user’s device is physically within aprox 30 feet.
