4. Facebook: Mobile Advertising Goes Social
• Mobile advertising provides mainline into the personal lives of consumers
• Most success stories about Facebook relate to it’s ability to allow interaction between consumers &
brands
• However chairman of shopping site “Gift” believes consumers don’t log into Facebook with the
desire to shop
• Companies are focusing on building brand identity relationships not just advertising

content marketing, promotion & customer interaction
• Facebook are offering advertisers more relevant return on their investments, this is for example
done through app promotion
• App promotion is now available on mobile newsfeed via specialised ad spaces, clicking on the link
takes the consumer to their app store and if purchased will show in their friends newsfeed
• Already proved successful for TinyCo who saw a 50% increase in click-through and also for Nanigan
who received 8-10 more reach
• Further development is planned, including: only showing ads to non-users of the apps plus the
ability to download without leaving Facebook
• Could be possible undesired effect on brand equity through barrage of adverts

8. App Development
• The process in which app software is developed for handheld devices, such as
smartphones and tablets. They can come pre-installed on the mobile
device, or downloaded from different platforms.
• Two main types, Native apps and Web applications.
• Native apps are targeted at specific mobile platforms and therefore can create
a level of interaction that would be difficult to achieve in a web app. They can
be used as a marketing resource to provide a service to highlight a company's
commercial projective, and enable the consumer to purchase directly.
• Web apps need only one system in development and are simpler to create and
maintain in comparison to Native apps.
• HTML5 is a developing standard which is already starting to have a dramatic
impact on the mobile Web. Although the final specification is not expected for
several years yet, some major sites have already begun focusing on HTML5, for
example the Financial Times newspaper, who in June 2011 released a Web
application instead of device-specific apps..
