I was delighted to present "Optimising the Mobile User Experience" at #EiG14, referencing a joint webinar given by SkyBet and OpenMarket for the MMA relier this year.

driven
industry
-‐
Customers
actively
look
for
promotions.
• SMS
and
Push
is
used
to
stop
them
having
to
look,
to
disrupt
their
search
before
they
find
a
competitor.
• Customer
profiles
show
low
brand
loyalty.
24. SMS
is
a
key
tool
in
24
‘turning
a
customers
head’
• Instant,
reactionary,
and
can
be
contextual
–
SMS
used
to
message
customers
pre-‐
decision,
during
half
time,
reacting
to
the
action
on
field.
• Message
must
deliver
a
feel
of
‘exclusivity’
to
add
value
and
with
‘In-‐Play’
mobile
only
offers
give
a
small
time
frame
in
which
to
respond.
• CTA’s
must
give
place
a
customer
onsite,
within
the
chosen
market
to
speed
the
conversion
process
from
received
SMS
to
‘placed
bet’. 14
25. Targeting
• Which
25
customer
will
want
the
message?
• Record
habits,
patterns
&
customers
that
have
followed
the
journey
presented
to
them
–
have
they
gone
on
to
make
a
purchase
before?
• What
is
their
purchase
history?
• When
will
the
customer
want
the
message?
• Examine
past
campaigns,
send
times,
response
times
and
measured
opt
outs.
• If
in
doubt,
deliver
at
peak
website
times.
• Examine
post
send.
• Which
customers
responded
to
which
channel?
15
26. Consider
the
whole
mobile
experience
• Where
26
will
a
customer
go?
• Place
a
customer
on
mobile
optimised
site.
• Go
further,
link
them
to
exact
pages
that
relate
to
the
message.
• Without
a
smooth
journey
customers
will
quickly
switch
off
or
get
distracted.
• When
should
they
be
there?
• Add
a
time
to
log
it
in
their
Calendar.
• Clear
instructions?
• If
it
can’t
be
explained
in
an
SMS
or
a
push,
use
another
form
of
communication.

the
power

even
if
they
are
not
interested
in
the
main
message
of
the
communication.

Proactive
