      • How the hell do we plan for mobile?
      • How do you measure the success?
      • How much it is going to cost?$?$?$
    9. When to start planning?
      • Like every other marketing channel, start thinking as early as possible.
      • Development schedules for mobile-enabled sites, branded applications or mobile games can take a few weeks or many months.
      • Dedicated SMS shorts codes take 8 weeks minimum to get ready. Shared SMS codes have shorter lifecycles, but still require time.
      • The method of obtaining short-codes varies from country to country.
      • Researching solutions, providers, agencies takes time.
      • How are you going to promote? POP display, TV ad, email, social streams.

    10. How do you plan for mobile?
      • Don’t worry about the tools in the beginning, worry about the consumer. It’s about the individual.
      • Look at the consumers in your client’s target audience.
      How old are they?
      Where are they from?
      Are they web-tech savvy?
      How do they purchase?
      What do they want from you?
      How do they get to you?
      • Look at your client’s web analytics.
      Are there visitors from mobile-enabled devices?
      If so, what type of browser are they using?
      What pages or types of content do they visit?
      What phones are they using to access the site?
      • Then, integrate the data above with your client’s goals?
      Increase brand awareness?
      Increase sales?
      Increase online traffic?

      This is like asking how is Twitter going to make money?

      • 1,000,000 - 4,999,999 $0.015
      • 5,000,000 $0.010
    16. How much is it going to cost?

    17. Think budget, not cost.
      How do you make the greatest impact to your client’s customers with the allotted budget?
      • Think about the conversation and how much it will cost to create it, rather than one-off campaigns.
      • Think about your touch points. Where will the mobile effort be promoted? How much will it cost to execute the collateral?
      • The mobile program should be tied to the organization’s overarching marketing strategy.
      • Front load the budget. Cost decreases once you’ve made the initial effort to acquire those first customers.
      • Determine where the budget comes from, digital, media, or mobile specific.

    18. Don’t just jump onto the mobile wagon.
      • Once you figure out the goals, put yourself in the consumers’ shoes.
      • Mobile marketing efforts shouldn’t be thought of as campaigns. Commit to a long-term, lifecycle-type of conversation.
      • Successful mobile campaigns find a way to create conversations with their customers.
      • With conversations, comes long term relationships with your customers.

      How did they execute the campaign?
      • Call-to-action on receipts and individual
      • Waiters/waitresses
      • Allowed Sonic to segment the results by store through individual codes.
      What were the results?
      • Responses were 20x higher than their typical e-mail or direct mail.
      • Less costly than direct mail, slightly more expensive than email, but “worth the effort given the response rate.”
      • Sonic parlayed this into a large-scale, localized mobile program.
