Mobile Marketing 
STARLIGHT 
DIGITAL MARKETING AGENCY
“Mobile has sparked a new world of media in which every object is a 
medium and every place, an opportunity for a message. There is no 
other platform that is as personal, as pervasive and provides the 
opportunity for proximity to connect with consumers in the right 
place and time.”

1. Mobile Marketing websites and interesting articles 
2. Smart Phone apps and QR codes 
3. Proximity Marketing 
4. Ad development 
5. iAds
To the right is an article by Mobile Marketing 
Watch. It suggests that colour is a more 
important aspect in marketing than is thought. A 
lot of people overlook the psychology behind the 
technique of using specific colours to appeal. 
“As it turns out, blue — preferred by 57 percent 
of men and 35 percent of women — is the best 
color to use if one’s product or message is 
aimed at a gender-neutral crowd. Blue, the 
color of clear skies and competence, is the 
favored color of both sexes.” 
Perhaps this is reason for the colour scheme 
used on their website. I found this article 
interesting and the information useful to 
improve future advertising techniques at 
Starlight Digital Marketing Agency. Check out 
the link below:

To the right is an article by Mobile Marketing. 
This is article is about how Black Friday broke 
through into the UK’s public consciousness over 
the last couples of years and how UK retailers 
started to take ‘Black Friday’ seriously. This year’s 
Black Friday is anticipated to be even bigger. 
“According to John Lewis, ‘It was not only the 
company’s busiest online shopping day of the 
year, it also set a number of records – more 
than doubling the previous record for daily 
online sales, and tripling it on mobile. During 
the peak hour, 7-8am, mobile traffic was an 
incredible 14 times higher than ever before.’” 
This article displays statistics and interesting 
insight into the impact of Black Friday and how 
profitable the day can be for companies if they 
get it right! Check it out using the link below:

To the right is a Mobile Marketing Association 
article which explores the importance of mobile 
marketing. It understands that in the current era 
this a tool for accessing a wide audience, and this 
means that companies can be more involved in 
their consumers. 
“It’s critical for your brand to understand how 
mobile works in the everyday lives of 
consumers, as well as how mobile has created 
deeper forms of brand loyalty and paths to 
purchase. It is a direct conduit into the lives 
and habits of consumers. Consumers need 
answers, and a properly mobilized brand can 
immediately provide solutions that react and 
respond to consumers in real time and 
eventually predict their needs. 
It shows that mobile is instant and this is an 
interesting concept, possibly revolutionary and 
something that a lot of brands are capturing.

Download this App! 
This app is for reading QR Codes. They 
work as shortcuts and links and may be 
printed on tops or displayed anywhere. 
Below is Starlight’s: 
Use the app to scan this and you will be 
sent to our website.
App that uses QR Codes! 
Cask Finder is an app that uses QR codes. 
This app is for beers fans and people 
enjoy real ale. Bars across the country 
have their own QR code which can be 
scanned. The app registers which pubs 
have been visited and users can compete 
to have an ale in the most pubs across the 
United Kingdom, and now branching out 
to Europe.
Using QR codes to advertise! 
Instagram is a popular photo sharing app 
with lots of downloads. They could use 
QR codes to advertise, as they display 1:1 
photographs, the same as QR codes. This 
way, if one person is on Instagram 
another person would be able to scan the 
code off their friend’s phone.
Location-based Marketing 
• Major retailers, such as Ikea or Macy’s, can send store maps and coupons or 
offers to apply for their credit card or to enroll in their loyalty or rewards 
programs. 
• Hotels can inform guests about on-site events and promotions or can offer to 
enroll them in loyalty or rewards programs. 
• Restaurants can send special menus/daily specials, coupons, offers for loyalty 
programs, or perhaps send trivia questions or other games to help them pass the 
time while they wait for their table to be ready. 
• Shopping malls can offer a proximity marketing benefit to their tenants by putting 
together a package of coupons or offer a discount at any mall retailer. 
• Travel hubs such as airports and public transportation centers can provide maps 
or display ads that can be sold to local tourist destinations. General information 
about a product or service can be delivered through proximity marketing even if 
the fixed location of the business or service agency changes
Native mobile apps: 
• A native app is one that is developed to be specifically for a specific platform: Apple’s iOS, 
Google’s Android, Windows Phone or (decreasingly) BlackBerry OS. 
Hybrid mobile apps: 
• Hybrid app can be installed on a device like a native app can, but it runs via a web browser. 
These apps are built using a language called HTML5. 
• These hybrid apps are not as fast, reliable or smooth as native apps. 
Web apps: 
• There are actually three types of web apps: traditional, responsive and adaptive. 
• Traditional web apps include any website 
• A responsive web app takes on a different design when it’s opened on a mobile device (i.e. 
phone or tablet), altering its design to suit the device it is viewed on. 
• An adaptive web app, in contrast, doesn’t change its design. It will display the same design, 
but will adjust it to fit the different screen size of a mobile device.
iAds are banners that appear on apps on 
smartphones such as the one to the left. The 
concept of an iAd is that the can be clicked on and 
the advertisement appears within the app and 
does not open a web browser. This are becoming 
increasingly popular as they are less awkward to 
use and can be interactive. They also mean that 
you can remain on the app you are using and the 
ad can just be closed.
