Growth through mobile. Mobile marketing strategy. TNS

1. Driving growth through
mobile
Mobile Life draws on the behaviours, motivations and attitudes of 38,000 people
in 43 countries, to develop recommendations on activating a business and
marketing strategy via mobile.
The ubiquity of mobile and the rapid growth of Smartphones
have had a huge impact on the way consumers behave. From
web browsing and mobile commerce, to social networking
and location-based services, people are engaging with an ever-
increasing range of services on their phone.
As the most multi-dimensional channel available to marketers,
mobile is enabling interaction with consumers on a personal
level, offering new forms of engagement and rewards, while
providing retailers and brands with valuable data and digital
advertising opportunities. With global mobile penetration at
92% across the markets studied and great swathes of the
world accessing the Internet for the first time via mobile,
every marketer needs to consider the role that mobile plays in
delivering their strategy.
A vital tool for businesses looking to understand how mobile
can help to fuel business growth, Mobile Life informs marketing
planning, guides partnership decisions and helps to prioritise
innovation projects.

Mobile Life helps to address key questions:
■■ What impact is mobile having in the retail channel and how
can brands minimise the risks and realise the opportunities?
■■ What are the mobile platforms and services that are driving
consumer engagement today and which are most likely to
grow in the future?
■■ How are consumers behaving on mobile and what
opportunities do these behaviours present to brands?
■■ How will ‘mobile wallet’ change consumer behaviours?
And what actions should brands take to plan for this today?
