Evolving marketing strategies for mobile?
Search is King.  Findability for those on-the-go is critical, so customers can find you. This translates to search and related services like Yelp and Google Maps.
Can you join me here? Think beyond mayorships to get customers to check in. Think about mobile coupons and text messages as well.
Text is not just for kids anymore. As a marketer, it’s useful for time-critical updates like bank accounts or Groupon-type notices.
It’s an app, app world.  With growing Smartphone options and other mobile device, apps are exploding.
Mad men go mobile.  Jump into mobile advertising to take advantage of strong response rates and branding opportunities.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1.

  3. Not an audience anymore where you push message out, rather it is a conversation. As a brand, customer has a lot more power in shaping/ influencing perceptions than company does. Companies will integrate social feedback into their decision making process As “social thinkers,” these companies will use the social engine to inform strategic decisions, and execute on the organization’'s objectives, marketing plans, product roadmaps and more. Expect to see a rise in companies who, by end of year, will be recognized for socially-informed innovation, customer focus and work environment (i.e., Zappos, Amazon). Mobile will become our gateway to the world From social shopping on the go, to easy paperless transactions and check-ins, to watching (and creating) videos with friends abroad, to in-class learning and collaboration, to managing our health real-time - prepare for an explosion of connected experiences across all points of interactions between people and people, people and companies, and people and information in the cloud. ROI will be redefined As brands move this year from being on social media to using the social media ecosystem, ROI metrics will finally evolve beyond counting ‘likes’ and comments. Aligning with actionable business objectives and their corresponding metrics will be critical to being able to demonstrate repeatable contribution to the bottom line.
