- #7 In 2013, people are spending 2 hours & 20 minutes on mobile devices per day.Mobile spend accounts for only 5% of total ad spend in 2013, projected to rise to over 17% in 2017.
- #10 View mobile behaviors very superficially based on the discrete things that people do on their smartphones: Shop, listen to music, check out scores, get directionsMarketers have adapted their mobile content or their messages to be fully optimized for HOW the consumer is using mobile, instead WHY. Me Time accounts for 46% of all smartphone app and website moments averaging 864 minutes per month per Arbitron, this is more than twice the next biggest moment, socialize, and bigger than accomplish, socialize, and prepare combined. 70% of these moments are lean back moments and only 30% are lean forward moments. The me time market are those moments when a person is relaxing or watching TV with a goal of having fun. People select apps/sites that help them pass the time and relax where the smartphone is playing the role of time killer or gaming buddy.
- #11 Mom spends 23% of her mobile moments to socialize. - She misses seeing her friends in person but her smartphone helps her to stay connected.She spends 39% of mobile moments for “me time” - Moms need to escape from the pressures of being a mom and take time out for herselfShe spends 12% of her mobile moments shopping - She’s responsible for buying products for the household that she might not be familiar with
- #13 Reality: The size of the U.S. mobile advertising market reached nearly $800 million by the end of 2010, and the worldwide market for mobile advertising is expected to grow to $13.5 billion in 2015. Surely all of these advertisers aren’t spending money without expecting to see a return. More importantly, customers are becoming increasingly comfortable with buying on their mobile devices. Just as people used to say that “Amazon can’t make money because people aren’t comfortable with buying online,” people are only going to get more comfortable with making purchases from their mobile phones and mobile devices.
- #19 Use geo-fencing technologies where precision lives, e.g. mapping & weather.Use hyper-local content to capture mindset, e.g. shopping lists, local news, local search.Use active advertising, e.g. Push Notifications, Passbook & SMS.Mine geo-social data such as Foursquare & Yelp check-ins to build audiences.
- #22 Mobile is frequently thought of as an on-the-go, utility device; however the majority of consumption is at home during Me Time.Leveraging the relationship between a consumer and their device is important for creative execution; use social feeds, video & images.The scale of a mobile network often overshadows the type of inventory that is offered. Low session depth & exclusive access to premium inventory is a strong indicator of network performance.Hyper-local targeting & geo-fencing are viewed in parallel with mobile but scale, type of inventory & precision are significant factors in successful execution.
