Ads
Companies spend a lot of time and money creating mobile friendly ads, so it would be nice to know if anyone actually looks at them. The answer, according to a survey from Prosper Mobile Insights is yes, sometimes, in certain situations.
Three-fourths of mobile users pay attention to ads when they are surfing the web, either regularly, or occasionally.
Nearly 60% of smartphone and tablet users do so while visiting social media sites.
Men are more likely to pay attention to mobile ads while surfing the web, watching videos, or even shopping.
More than half (51%) of men say the ads they watched influenced the products and brands they purchase, compared to 43.7% of women.
Nearly half of the people surveyed did not seem very interested in paying for ad-free social media sites.
Results like this indicate that mobile ad spending is worthwhile. The key is to research placement and message to target your audience where and when they are more likely to give you their attention.
Industry
To keep pace with the ever-expanding use of smart phones, tablets, and other mobile devices, many industries have been increasing their mobile budgets. The industry leading the charge is finance, with the largest reported mobile ad budget of all verticals on the Millenial Media platform.
The goal for the finance vertical is less about maintaining a market presence, and more focused on lead generation at 70%.
The same study found that mobile financial consumers have a higher mobile penetration rate at 80%, and more likely to have a web-enabled device that isn't a phone.
Creating a spot-on user experience for tablets would benefit financial brands hoping to lead users to websites or mobile apps.
These customers also preferred apps for providing information on mobile devices.
Size
There are a lot of sizes to select. There's quite a range from smaller smart phone screens like the Sony Xperia mini (2.5 inches) to mid-sized screens, like the Kindle Fire (7 inches) up to the largest tablet screen the Samsung Galaxy Tab (10.1) inches. Which one has a better Click-Through Rate (CTR) on mobile ads?
According to a Jumptap study... size does not really matter. The highest CTR came with the 7 inch Kindle fire, The 4 inch iPhone was 3rd, with the larger Galaxy Tab in 5th. The 7 Nook was last. So apparently, size doesn't matter... the user does.
Mobile continues to attract users, create more opportunities for marketers, and to keep people engaged at all times, and anywhere. Taking advantage of the popular devices, and the way people use them is a matter of keeping pace. For effective mobile marketing in Trinidad and Tobago, learn your customers, and you can better help them learn about you.
