Mobile trends show rapid growth in mobile search driven by an annual holiday peak. Half of all mobile internet sessions start with search. Mobile search queries grew over 200% year-over-year in 2011 for top searches. Marketers are recognizing the need to optimize websites for mobile to improve the customer experience and capture the growing mobile traffic. However, many large companies still do not have mobile-optimized sites, presenting an opportunity for those that make the investment.

FabriQate presents an overview of the Chinese Mobile scene and opportunities that exist in the market in China.
China is fast emerging as one of the largest mobile markets with 1 billion mobile subscribers and a rapid progression towards internet enabled mobiles. This creates a very vibrant and rich ecosystem for mobile apps and offerings in China.
China has also created some unique mobile models especially in the mobile web scene which are a learning lesson for the US and European mobile ecosystems. In that way we find that China is actually innovating and leading the way in certain areas of mobile.

Mobile is NOT a Channel - Rob Griffin at IMMAP Summit, 2012Havas Media
Rob Griffin, EVP Product Development at Havas Digital, spoke recently at the IMMAP Summit & emphasised 3 clear takeaways-
1. Mobile is Now, and you must know that. Embrace a Mobile First approach to all marketing and communications efforts.
2. Accept the multiplicity of the device. Mobile devices are consumers' constant companions and central to their daily lives.
3. Activate and Engage! Take full advantage of mobile's greater capabilities to engage in real time.
Instead of thinking about mobile as an advertising channel, it is more important to view it as an access point for consumers- hence the urgent need for everything to be mobile enabled from the start. Mobile Internet user growth is projected to hit 3.5billion in 2015- how are you positioning your brand to take advantage of this revolution?

GfK NIS and nurago: Measuring Digital Consumer Journeysnurago
GfK NIS and nurago are measuring Digital Consumer Journeys across all media types and customer touchpoints.
We combine Network-centered measuring (NIS) with User-centered metering (nurago).
GfK Network Intelligence Solution’s methodology transfers anonymised, real-time IP traffic into fine-grained metrics to understand cross media and long tail consumer behaviour in motion.
GfK nurago‘s LEOtrace® technology measures and tracks individual user behaviour and application usage
on-device within controlled consumer panels.
Measuring and interpreting traffic on mobile network operator’s backbones helps understanding the long tail of Mobile. Currently, data from 5+ million unique users are anonymously evaluated. NIS is new and tested in 7 countries with 8 operators. Data is enriched with demographics, geographics, device features, and content categorisation into a fully consumer privacy proof solution.
nurago‘s LEOtrace® technology provides Holistic Measurement in smaller samples:
Events and data points measured at the point of origin: Web and App Usage, Communication, Location — then enriched with purchase information, attitudinal user feedbacks – and other media usage.
The combination of both results in multidimensional analysis and robust insights.
The presentation was held at M-Days 2012, Feb 1.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

11. Drive visitors to your website
You’ve
invested in a
mobile site –
tell your
customers
that it’s a
mobile site
when they are
searching!
12. Search on mobile vs desktop
According to Google (and they seem to have spent a lot of time
researching all of this… for good reason, given recent financial
performance figures presented to Wall St etc):
Mobile – tends to be driven by an immediate need.
on average, a search on mobile is “acted upon” within 1 hour
of the request – eg visit a physical location, make a phone call,
buy online etc
Desktop – seems to be the beginning of a more involved research act
on average, a search on desktop takes around 1 week to be
“acted upon”

19. State of the Nation
• It’s clear that people do stuff on mobile
– More than first thought
• Understanding by marketers of the different roles of apps,
sites and messaging
• Recognition that the average mobile browser is more
powerful than the average desktop one
• A realisation that a QR code is a mechanic not a call to
action
• Now that you’ve caught up with the competition how do
you leapfrog them with better UX?
21. What’s so special about mobile?
Mobiles are always with us and turned on – differentiates mobile from
other channels: allows immediate interaction then and there.
Highly personal channel – as close to face to face as you can get
Increasing sophisticated capability blurs channel edges: services
formerly tied to our PCs are now accessible on a range of screens.
In a way there is nothing special: for consumers, mobile is simply one
part of their digital experience. They expect their mobile to work as
well as their PC.
Over half of all media activity undertaken by UK 16-24s is
simultaneous (Ofcom).
21
22. What’s so special about mobile?
Represents a further
step in the shift from
broadcast to multi-
faceted engagement by
enabling brands to
connect with consumers
at numerous touch
points, often
concurrently.
22
23. The Opportunity
Mobile now presents new opportunities for brands - not just in
communications, but in product, loyalty and as the ultimate one-to-one
relationship tool.
Not only are marketers now more able to deliver immersive
experiences, but consumers are also progressively more open to
them.
To engage customers in otherwise ‘dark’ time
Location time sensitive content can be served to segmented audience
"The power of apps and location-based marketing are the holy grail for
advertisers” - Sir Martin Sorrell
Mobile clearly has to play a key part in this landscape but brands must
think how it fits into a wider digital experience.
23
24. Customer is the focus not the channel
Merely having multiple channels does not translate into a multi-
channel strategy.
True multi-channel strategy involves each channel playing a core role
and a defined value for the customer. While they exist within a world
containing multiple interaction channels, they are still one consumer.
Mobile catalyst or facilitator of the process: forging the link between
the offline with the rich and engaging online
Tap into the instinct to share: Consuming content is an increasingly
social experience – broadcasting what you are doing suits mobile.
Social commerce is a key driver of sales – allow the audience to do
some of the marketing for you.

30. Mobile users have high expectations

Mobile users value speed
38% of users are only willing
to wait 30 seconds or less to
complete a simple
transaction.

• Very basic mobile site
• Contains general static info about graduate and experienced hire, events, how

• But… to actually view vacancies, you are directed to the desktop Deloitte site…
not a good experience
35. Why invest in a mobile site?
• To boost performance
– 51% are more likely to purchase
from retailers
– 85% show increased engagement
with a retailer
• To keep customers
– 40% would visit a competitor’s site
instead because of a disappointing

55. Can mobile emails be rich and engaging?
This is an example of a British Airways email that has mobile presentation
embedded
56. BA email renders differently on a mobile
Mobile email can be engaging, but always needs to lead to an optimised site
Optimisation eliminates the need to expand or pinch the screen. The ‘Find out more’ button
compresses any extra text, providing a great user experience while the ‘Home’, ‘Log-in’,
‘Flights’ and ‘Contact us’ become conspicuous, one click buttons at the end of the page.
57. Mobile Advertising
Beyond Talk & Text
Marketing spend on mobile display ads &
Mobile Media Consumption (Forrester)
search in 2011: $1 billion
Advertising on mobile devices rocketed by
157% in 2011, to a new high of £203.2 million
(IAB UK, March 2012)
57
58. What is mobile advertising
• Static mobile ads are banners or text ‘snippets’ served to the screen of
a mobile device within a mobile web site, or ‘in-app’
• Rich media mobile ads include video, animations and other interactions
• Most ads perform an action (normally directing to a website, or playing a
video, etc) when clicked
• Ad providers provide ‘tags’ which are inserted into the site or app and
are used to insert or ‘inject’ advertising content
• The ads are monetized on a ‘Pay-per-click’ (PPC) or ‘Cost-per-
thousand’ (CPM) basis
• Ads are automatically chosen using various criteria; country, location,
historical browsing / behaviour, device and other details
59. Ads for apps
• Google has recently
announced a new feature in
which apps can be
downloaded directly from
search results
• This adds immediacy to
search results, reduces the
need for multiple clicks and
vastly improves the
customer experience
60. House ads (‘Heros’)
• Rather than ‘lose’ the user when
they click on an ad, banners can
be used to provide interactive
full-screen graphics, further
encouraging the user
• This type of advertising is
typically aimed at on-site product
promotions such as special offers
/ ‘hero’ items
• Once clicked, videos, clickable
‘hotspots’ on graphics and even
games can be provided in the full
screen ad
61. Apple’s iTunes Store data allows
for highly targeted deployment of
ads using known customer details
and preferences:
Demographics
Music passions
Movie, TV and audiobook
genre interests
Location
Application preferences
Device (iPhone, iPad,
iPod Touch)
61
62. Role of Mobile
Print Poster Mobile Web Site Facebook
SMS short code gives access Entering Competition sends Publishes your activity on Facebook
to mobile site user to Facebook site to your friends’ news feed
62
63. Role of Mobile
iAd Banner iAd Content
Ad placement on 3rd party site Watch the advert, download wallpapers of the Lynx angels and purchase and
download the theme tune Sexy Boys from iTunes, all from within their app.
63
64. Mobile is performing well through the funnel
Cost per acquisition is lower than desktop
• Mobile advertising is outperforming desktop in both
display and search
– At CTR and CPC levels
• Overall bounce is high because most sites are not
optimised
– Optimised sites showing bounce-rates the same as desktop
• Conversion rates are higher
– Overall the average on mobile is a little lower but this is because
of sites which have not been optimised
• But basket sizes are lower on mobile
– Poor navigation and UX
– Few hero promotions
– Slower networks, less ‘window shopping’
67. Units of commerce
• Mobile commerce valued at £172bn
globally for 2011 (Informa Telecoms
& Media)
• UK has highest mobile commerce
participation (23%).
• 18-34 yrs driving trend.
• Not afraid of big ticket items: John
Lewis and M&S selling items in
excess of £3,000 via mobile
• 4.30pm is the busiest time for mobile
internet usage in the UK
68. Reinventing the shopping experience
Comparison Shopping
• Consumers use mobile to help make
decisions in-store: 60% use mobile web,
40% use apps, 37% use both
• 47% used their phone to compare prices
• 34% compared products
• 20% looked at product specifications
• 15% compared reviews

• Halifax released its new Home
Finder smartphone app today,
offering users a new method
of searching for property
information on iPhone and
Android devices.
• The first page you see offers a
search tool, mortgage
calculator, access to your
favourite properties and a
guide to the home buying
process.
84. New app review - Halifax
• A quick search brings up all
the properties in your chosen
area in a list or displayed on a
map, and this can then be
filtered by the number of
bedrooms, price and several
other criteria.
• You can then access all the
usual property details,
including images, but also the
area’s sales history from the
land registry and a repayment
calculator to see if you can
actually afford it.
85. New app review - Halifax
• When you have chosen which
flats you want to view, the app
allows you to add notes to the
property details as you look
round.
• You can even take photos of
the property and add ratings
out of five for various criteria.
All the details, including the
photos, can then be emailed
as a PDF and printed off.

101. Conclusions
If you want to get the best from mobile …
• Put more effort into your mobile site than applying
a couple of media queries (responsive CSS)
– Page sizes of 1MB will give you sky-high bounce rates
• Apply responsive CSS to email marketing
• In most cases use sites for acquisition and apps
for customer service
• Build hybrid apps
– Integrate with your desktop/mobile CMS
• Use a combination of SMS and ‘in app (push)
notifications’
102. That’s the way to do it
An integrated mobile strategy requires an integrated marketing strategy
