mobile marketing essentials workshop
DESCRIPTION
A Mobile Marketing workshop I held at the 2013 Industry Disruptors conference held on Saturday, November 23rd http://2013.industrydisruptors.org/#toggle-id-42 By the end of 2013 mobile phones will have overtaken PCs as the most common web access device worldwide. At the moment, people spend on average 12% of their media consumption time using mobile devices, whereas only 3% of advertising budget is funneled through this medium. Therein lies a huge opportunity for both brands and publishers. In that context, it would be of utmost importance to explore how we integrate mobile marketing in our communication strategy.TRANSCRIPT

# It’s all about context.Remember that actions a person might want to take when using their mobile while out and about are not necessarily the same as when they are using a desktop at home or a laptop in the office.

# Keep it short.Don’t allow too much text input for users. Even if you require filling a form for some reason, like signup, login etc.
Mobile WEB
# Design for the screen.There are such rules as proper size of buttons and spaces between them, avoiding overloading pages with various images

#App for apps sake?If your purpose for developing a mobile app is to only increase your brand impressions and grow your potential client list, think again.

# Does it have value?The first step is to identify exactly what the app’s for, and what you want it to achieve. Is it to enhance customers’ interactions with you, improve your brand presence, or generate revenue through paid downloads, in-app advertising or purchases?

# Do you know your users? Will the app’s users be web-savvy or novices? What will their usage patterns be, and on what devices? When do you expect them to use the app, and for how long?
Mobile Apps
# What is your content?Apps generally either consume content, or create it. If they are consuming content, it’s vital to know where that content comes from. How it gets into the app influences the size of the app, and the complexity of making it. Embedding content makes apps harder to update, but simpler to build.

# What’ll it do?Successful apps are simple, usable and reliable.It’s better to launch a simple application that does one thing well, than one that does several things badly. The more focused the app’s purpose, the better.
