For beacons 
to take off, 
they will need 
to be relevant 
and deliver 
real value to 
consumers 
“There’s a very strong interest in 
in-store awarenes—I can’t think 
of a single client that isn’t very 
interested in the potential 
with beacons. Anything that 
will make shopping easier and 
more frictionless for people is 
going to win.” 
—Rachel Pasqua, mobile practice lead, MEC 
Global
Despite their promise, challenges abound for 
beacons, namely consumers must… 
§ …tune in by making sure that they’ve 
©2014 eMarketer Inc. 
turned on Bluetooth 
§ …sign in by downloading and then 
using specific brand and retailer apps 
§ …opt in by giving permission to receive

Smartphones 
are very 
personal, 
which 
highlights 
how 
marketers 
need to offer 
consumers 
real value 
“If the shopper has opted in for 
an offer, they expect to receive 
a super-targeted, relevant ad. 
So the creative needs to be 
timely, it needs to be relevant. It 
needs to offer some 
immediate value to the user 
or enhance what they are doing 
at that moment.” 
—Bill Clifford, chief revenue officer, SessionM

Opening Thoughts
©2014 eMarketer Inc. 
Experiments 
are the way 
to go – even 
as mobile is 
established, 
the medium is 
still very new 
“It’s easy for people to look at 
new platforms and say to 
themselves, ‘I’m not sure I want 
to participate.’ But there’s an 
enormous amount of benefit to 
get from experimentation. 
There’s a lot to learn in the 
early stages.” 
—Kira Wampler, CMO, Trulia
©2014 eMarketer Inc. 
How many 
companies 
still treat 
mobile as a 
separate 
entity? 
Why? 
“Digital marketing is not a 
department.” 
“It has officially woven its way 
into the fabric of all your 
marketing.” 
—Cory Treffiletti, vice president of strategy, 
Oracle Marketing Cloud
©2014 eMarketer Inc. 
We have 
gathered here 
today to join 
together in 
secular 
matrimony… 
“I have also seen a lot of what I 
call ‘digital myopia’ out 
there, the narrow viewpoint held 
by some sectors of the ad tech 
industry that digital is the center 
of the universe.” 
—David Cooperstein, CMO, Simulmedia
