Mobile Marketing & Branded Mobile Apps Sacramento
Mobile Marketing and Mobile Apps are the new and profitable frontiers for small businesses as we head into 2012. Going mobile with your marketing today is a ground floor opportunity much like the early adopters of websites had in 1994.
The statistics tell the Mobile story. A Pew Research survey from March 2011 found 46% of US adults owned a smartphone, an 11-point increase since last May. Morgan Stanley Research estimates sales of smartphones will exceed those of PCs in 2012. In fact Google is betting on mobile as well, purchasing Motorola for $12.5 Billion.
Mobile Websites
Your customer has gone mobile. Their favorite hangouts like Facebook and Youtube are mobile optimized and they expect the same from the businesses they patronize. If your website is too difficult to view on a smartphone or tablet, your visitor says “next” and moves to a competitor’s optimized site.
Branded Mobile Apps
Everyone is familiar with Apple’s slogan “There’s an app for that” right? Well now your business can have an app as well. In fact The New York Times writes that mobile marketing “is the most powerful media ever invented”. Think about it. The average smartphone user has their device with them 23 hours per day. Imagine downloading your business into a device that is so personal to your customer. And each time they use it your business information as at their fingertips.
So what can a branded iPhone, Android or Blackberry smartphone app do?
- Push Messaging
- GPS Directions
- Business Information
- Mobile Coupons
- and more…
Push messaging is by far the most valuable feature of your business app. Push Notifications are pop up messages that you can send to your customers/clients even when the app is not running. Restaurants can send a Specials/Happy Hour Specials on a slow night. Realtors can post new listings. Any businesses can send a specials message or coupon link. The uses of this feature are only limited by your imagination. And 97% of push Messages are read. Compare that to a 4%-10% success rate for email!
The bottom line is that a Branded Mobile App provides Customer Loyalty, Customer Engagement and Customer Convenience.
