“Mobile is so interesting because it combines the ability to consume and heroize brands with the
ability to take action,” said Patrick J. Moorhead, senior vice president and group management director
of mobile platforms at Draftfcb Chicago.
4. Mobile on a gallop, stealing budgets from traditional media
M obile advertising works when used as part of a cross-media campaign and dialogue.
According to Berg In-sight, mobile will account for 15.2 per cent of global online ad spend in 2016. The
total value of the global mobile marketing and advertising market will grow from $3.4 billion in 2010 at a
compound annual growth rate of 37 per cent to $22.4 billion in 2016.
Mobile advertising matured drastically in 2011, with more sophisticated ad units and campaign
executions. This maturation has made consumers more open to mobile ads.
According to Nielsen’s State of the Media:
Consumer Usage Report, 51 per cent of consumers say that they are OK with advertising on their
devices if it means they can access content for free.
For 2012 expect to see more integration of social into mobile ads and marketing programs. Also,
location will be a key aspect of mobile marketing and advertising strategy. Larger budgets will lead to
higher fill rates for publishers.
5. Agencies need to get over their fear of mobile marketing
April 27, 2012
By Alex Kutsishin
With more than 1 billion smartphones in use worldwide and approximately half of all online searches
now originating on mobile devices, this is the time for advertising agencies to fully embrace the new
possibilities of mobile advertising. But many are still reluctant to do so. The reason? Fear of the
unknown.
It is no exaggeration to say that advertisers and agencies who want to remain relevant need to get
over their fear of mobile marketing – quickly.
Mobile Internet use is poised to outstrip desktop Internet use in 2014. Mobile device use already tops
PC use in many major markets, according to a Google study.
Numbers’ game
If the threat of irrelevance is not sufficient motivation to take the plunge, ad agencies should also note
that mobile customers are a highly desirable demographic group:
• 36 per cent of mobile shoppers are in the 25-34 age range and an additional 21 per cent are 35-44 –
the exact demographic many advertisers are trying to reach.
• 52 per cent of mobile shoppers use their smartphones to research product features, and 29 per cent
conduct comparison shopping online using their devices.
• 34 per cent of mobile shoppers make $100,000 per year or more and 18 per cent make between
$75,000 and $100,000.
With such attractive demographics and a marketplace that is increasingly turning to mobile advertising
solutions, agencies that focus exclusively on print and PC-based advertisements have plenty of
reasons to explore the prospect of mobile marketing.
However, many agencies are hampered by misperceptions about the technical complexity of the
mobile medium as well as the expenses involved.
The good news is that these fears are misplaced.
6. Right party
Just as technology has generally become simpler and more intuitive for the average user, mobile
technology is becoming more straightforward for both users and advertisers.
Today, it is easier than ever for an agency to develop and implement a mobile marketing strategy and
take advantage of the huge opportunities the explosive growth in the mobile advertising sector
presents.
Creative teams can now access an array of third-party offerings that can make creating branded
mobile content a snap.
Offering truly user-friendly mobile content creation systems at an affordable price, third-party
developers now empower advertisers to build and publish Web content and specialty apps complete
with highly customizable buttons, fonts, headers and embedded video.
Agencies no longer need specialized technology expertise to operate mobile campaigns since their
development partners can handle the back-end architecture.
With the right partner, agencies can leave worries about screen-size optimization and mobile viewing
dimensions behind and focus on creating compelling content and campaign strategies that drive
revenue.
A competent third-party provider can allow agencies to develop mobile ads in-house without
programming knowledge, much as software programs enable non-techie users to create, edit and
publish documents and social media content every day without ever entering a single code.
Many third-party services also make social media integration and analytics part of the package, with
access to Twitter and Facebook widgets as well as campaign metrics from applications and programs
such as Google Analytics and APIs.
IN LIGHT OF these new options and the rapid growth of the mobile advertising industry, the only
question that remains is why any agencies are still reluctant to jump on the mobile marketing
bandwagon.
With affordable new offerings and user-friendly technology, it is time for the last of the holdouts to
mobilize their marketing campaigns
