Mobile Marketing. This is the term we have been using for over a decade now and we use it for many aspects of digital marketing today.

What is mobile marketing? Mobile Marketing is the act of engaging a consumer on their mobile device, whether it be a phone, a tablet or even on a website being displayed on a mobile device.  The days of consumers looking any other place than Google or Facebook or some other digital method is over.  Think about the last time you need a car repair, or an HVAC or Plumbing company.  Did you rummage through your desk drawers or goto the old yellow pages? Probably not. Why not? because those ways are outdated, slow and just do not serve the needs of the general public any longer,

What does serve the need of the consumer in 2018?

Mobile Marketing listings. What is a mobile marketing listing? Well, think of the last time you searched for anything online.  The listings that came up wer business listings that have changed their ways and engage the mobile consumer and more importantly give that consumer the information or service or product they are looking for.

When they visit in the mobile device, which is sometimes as high as 100% of the time for some companies and industries, the way you display your data to them is called mobile marketing.  The way you try and capture an email or a mobile number for some sort of information or offer is called mobile marketing.  If you engage in retargeting, then displaying ads on the other mobile apps and sites is called mobile marketing.

So, Mobile marketing is a very wide ranging term, however it is important for every business today to make sure their website is responsive, has a SSL certificate and you are getting a chance at collecting consumer information so that you can continue to market to them.

This is the basic definition of mobile marketing. Please check out our other blogs, our SMS software, our Mobile Coupons and our Local Beacon Marketing Solutions to learn even more about the mobile marketing opportunities.

Social Media7 Statistics About Facebook Users That Reveal Why It's Such A Powerful Marketing Platform  

Who's on Facebook? The short answer, of course, is everyone. And that's why every company and brand needs to seriously consider a major presence on the platform, as well as a Facebook-specific content strategy.

But digging into the data reveals more specific and compelling reasons why marketers should be active on Facebook, such as the fact that despite recent news coverage about how Facebook is getting older, it's still strongest in the young adult age bracket so precious to many marketers.

In a new report from BI Intelligence, we break down the demographics of Facebook and show why it's such a powerful platform for companies, brands, and products. Facebook's surprisingly strong statistics in terms of gender breakdown, income levels, and age diversity makes it the obvious go-to marketing platform. Our report also spotlights similar statistics for all the main social networks, but Facebook's numbers are perhaps the most compelling.

Here are seven of our surprising findings on Facebook:

• Population and Penetration: Yes, we know that over 1 billion people are on the platform. But what's the penetration rate in a major market like the U.S.? 67% of Internet users in the U.S. are on Facebook.
  
• Age: Facebook still skews young. In the U.S., 83% of 18 to 29-year-olds who use the Internet are on it, but the proportion is only 67% across all age brackets. However, the 45- to 54-year-old age bracket has seen 46% growth since year-end 2012. 
• Income: Among U.S. Internet users, 73% with incomes above $75,000 are on Facebook (compared to 17% who are on Twitter, and 13% who are on Pinterest).
  Mobile: Facebook is the most popular social media app on smartphones and accounts for 66% of total social media sharing on iPhones.
• International: Eight-six percent of Facebook's users are outside the U.S. And 29% of its users log in from Asian countries. 
• Gender: Facebook skews slightly toward women. But it is more gender neutral than Pinterest and Google+.
• Education: Nearly 75% of U.S. Internet users who have had at least some education in college use Facebook, according to Pew Research.

Wow, its amazing to watch how fast the mobile revolution has happened.  When I begin working with a client, there is no tracking usually in place, so there is no way to see who is visiting websites or social streams.  

Once we turn on our programs for our clients, things start to light up and we can watch the true metrics happen in front of our eyes.  No matter what size market we work within, the mobile consumer is at least half, if not more than all of the traffic. 

Once we turn on the mobile capture aspects for our clients ( see Gloryview, Global or Baypoint) we start to see a great trend occur.  Mobile browsers will enter information when you treat them properly.  When I work on a website, mobile app, or social channell, I am constantly looking at the appearance of the page and how the mobile browser sees things.  As soon as I notice a "crack" or, the mobile browser has to zoom in or out (pinch/squeeze), I will also notice one other thing.  Traffic dies at that point.

So, if you have a website, have you tried to browse to it lately? Is it engaging? Can you easily click to call or click for a map to your location? Is there a way for me to enter information via a simple web form so I receive a valuable offer or coupon? Is your email and mobile list growing or dying?

These are what the growing mobile consumer not only expects but demands, and the businesses that realize this and realize this fast, are the ones that will profit the most. 

These are exciting times in mobile - Is your business ready?

Are you interested in learning how focusing a little effort on your mobile presence can result in major revenue gains? Give me a call at 888-374-0555

Until next time,
