Devices
Smart phone use is on the rise.
Smart phones are quickly becoming a more important tool to use to connect
and engage with customers.
Consumers are also using mobile apps to order food, find nearby
restaurants, add value to prepaid cards (i.e. Starbucks), and/or discover the
“flavor of the day.”
Restaurant reservation platform OpenTable today reported quarterly
earnings of $52.3 million and used the day to put out some other news: the
company has acquired Ness Computing, makers of the personalized
restaurant recommendations app Ness.

location
Customers are using technology and mobile devices to announce location
to
social
networks
(i.e.
SCVNGR,
Facebook
Places, Foursquare, Gowalla).
Businesses are capitalizing on this by linking the “check-ins” to coupons
and deal savings, encouraging fans to announce their locations, and
ultimately, become customers.

Buying
Group buying sites, such as Groupon, have changed consumer buying
behavior, by forcing consumers to cooperate in order to receive the
discount.
Group buying allows for companies to drive purchase behavior and
expand their customer bases. Participating businesses have experienced
increased traffic as a result of flash sales, especially when linked with
product reviews.


Scanning
Mobile devices allow the consumer the opportunity to scan bar codes
(QR codes) to get product reviews, complementary offerings, compare
prices across distributors and track product availability.
Businesses can use this knowledge to communicate transparency
regarding price, product and service quality.
