Social Networking ranked as the fastest growing category in mobile content consumption in 2010, but online retail right up there Personal Email and Weather, two frequently accessed categories, also experienced substantial growth of +39% and +45%, respectively 20.

For which of the following have you used your smartphone?Source: comScore Survey January 2011 29% of deal of the day app users use their phones to access deals every day 70% of these consumers compare prices at least a couple times per month 24. Holy crap, Im freaked out. How does this apply to my career in print not being a dead end? 25. If I were in your shoes. 26. First recognize that publishing for mobile is not what you used to think it meant 27. Print media without a clear call to action linking to digital is dead media. You can make it undead. 28. 29. 30. 31. Top 5 ways to screw it up

  • Marketers make the QR code too small. Having a small QR code on a billboard is not going to work
  • Marketers make the QR code hard to reach or scan in outdoor media
  • Give consumers a reason to scan the code. No CTA = FAIL!
  • Nothing says you dont understand the medium like having a QR code link to a mobile version of the Ad they just read
  • Nothing says you are a dumb ass more than linking the QR code to your desktop website

32. 33. 34. 35. Before you go ahead and recommend one to your clientskeep the following in mind

  • It can becomplicated. You need to build an experiential experience with the right lighting in retail to make it work right
  • It can be expensive often more than building a promotional website as you have to build the experience not just link to it like a QR code
  • Desktop browsers support AR codes because they support flash. Mobile does not. Easily.You need to leverage HTML 5 & likely build an App
  • Be sure there is a practical reason to do it or else it becomes an expensive gimmick

36. 37. A few things about NFC

  • Make dead media, smart media with NFC
  • Faster than scanning a QR code
  • Soon all smartphones will come NFC enabled
  • Can link directly to payments
  • Easy to program and re-program an NFC sticker
  • Only works when in close proximity to a reader (not further away like a QR or AR code)

38. Holy crap, Im freaked out. How will I ever remember all these terminologies? Can you recap all this for me? 39. k. thks. bye. follow me @phryl 40.
