Summary • The future for mobile advertising seems very bright • Mobile is a powerful ad tool for all tactical, and sales driven advertisement. • The mobile device is personal, close to the point of purchase and give through apps possibilities to be very targeted on user situations and target groups. • iPad is a lean back medium, and we try to make products and ads that meet these needs. • The iPad as an ad tool give a very high effect and a new way to build brands digitally. • For mobile platforms, VG is more and more ad focused instead of user payment oriented. We think advertisement will be the main future revenue stream.

Editor's Notes
- Tor Jacobsen Director of VG Mobile. VG Mobile is a doughter company of VG, which is the largest newspaper in Norway in terms of readers both for the printed version and digitally Definition: Mobile including iPad/tablets
- This graph shows the main 6 sites in Norway the last year. It shows a mobile market growing in sain, and it shows that ”the winner takes it all” – or winner is a stronger winner on mobile.. or Norway. It is so in Norway, and we also see this for a lot of other countries Our mobile traffic has been 8 times as big that it was 2,5 years ago, so things are happening very quickly.
- To set this into perspective, you here see our digital traffic on christmas eve the last 3 years. It´s a good day of measuring because people tend to do the same things this day. It´s two interesting this whith this graph Mobile makes a bigger and bigger share and was last christmas eve almost 40%. We expect this year it to be higher, and allready now we see some days where mobile is bigger The total digital traffic is increasing – the cake is bigger – the user situations is more and more.
- Mary meeker, one top medie analyst From the us: While 10% of the usage is on mobile, only 1% of the ad spent is. Over time – this cannot last, and mobile will have a huge growth potential. The other thing is the yellow one, it will also be growing a lot mot My guess is that mobile will be the number one digital mediaplattform in terms of revenue, in very few years
- In Norway actually, we actually see this happening allready. This is VG Mobiles ad revenue development. It´s growing very fast – a lot more than the usage is growing. And: it´s a lot of money – it´s a significant share of our digital revenue
- So why is mobile so great. Why is it a fantastic advertisement tool? Well it is everywhere, it´s personal and you use it from morning to evening – from dusk till dawn. And especially situations where …. But the most important thing
- Salmon 36 % Gjennomsnittlig salgsvekst totalt i testperioden sammenlignet med baseperioden 55 % Gjennomsnittlig salgsvekst i region øst i testperioden sammenlignet med baseperioden
- Mary meeker, one top medie analyst
- You own the user situation in a higher degree than other digital plattform. It´s sofa time, it´s relaxed and it´s perfect for ads!
- This is some examples on ads we have had on some of our iPad products. It don´t need to be so complicated
- Poeng: the ARPU is driven 90% from ads
- OK, we have a landscape where we expect mobile to gain more and more ”digital market share” and where the total digital page impressions wil grow significant.
