11. 10 rules for leveraging
the mobile channel
1. What do you want to achieve?
2. Get the whole picture
3. Be relevant
4. Be yourself
5. Pick the right platforms
6. Usability
7. Ubiquity
8. Uniquely Personal
9. Mocial
10. Don‟t hide the app
11
12. 1. What do you
want to achieve?
Examples...
Mobile app as part of a branding strategy to
help position the make
A tool to raise awareness of an upcoming
release or the launch of a new brand
Create a new sales channel to reach
customers and drive sales
Mobile app as an extension for an existing
service
Drive footfall to a brick and mortar store
Engage customers at the POS and enhance
the in-store shopping experience
12
13. 2. Get the whole
picture
Mobile isn‟t standalone
Interlink between channels.
Let channels “play” with each other, the more
interaction, the more engaged the customer
Cross-promote throughout all channels.
Use NFC, QR Codes or links to connect mobile with
OOH Media, Print or TV and vice versa. Create and
benefit from synergies
13
14. 3. Be relevant
Follow the user‟s journey and
detect potential touchpoints.
Fit the audience
Provide a reason to download your app
Exclusive content
Discounts
An app needs to be maintained
Take advantage of updates
14
15. 4. Be yourself
Don‟t chase the latest buzz
just to be cool
Work from your values, your positioning
and your message
Create a logical connection between the
app and its functionalities.
15
16. 5. Pick the right
platforms
Not everyone has an iPhone or an
Android. Not even a smartphone.
The audience will tell you everything you
need to know
Get the basics right (so yes to a mobile site)
16
17. 6. Usability
Make people love your mobile
presence.
Mobile is not Online. It‟s not just another
digital screen
Smaller screen. Longer loading times
User journey needs to be well thought out
Transaction need to be simple, yet secure
Navigation through voice- recognition
should be taken into account
17
18. 7. Ubiquity
Mobile goes everywhere
Take advantage of “anytime, anywhere”
The bridge between the individual and
everything around them, virtual or real
Create time pressure to boost mobile sales
18
19. 8. Uniquely Personal
Respect the user‟s choice
Never assume that the user wants to be
open with you
Users are willing to share information, but
on their terms
Ask permission. Always take the opt-in route
Reward them for joining in
19
20. 9. Mocial
Mobile is inherently social
Most users are logged into Facebook
Create fast login/ sign up through social
networks
Enable and encourage sharing
Provide content that encourages sharing
Let your fans do the publicity
20
21. 10. Make your mobile
services easy to find
Mobile apps and websites don‟t
market themselves
If no one knows you have a mobile
presence, no one will download your app or
access your mobile web
Promote mobile through other channels
Make mobile part of „The Marketing Plan‟
Give incentives for downloading your app
and promote them

43. Parting Thoughts
“ Don’t think APIs. Think billions of dollars of
money sloshing through obscure programming
methods.
What's Fueling The API Gold Rush
-Dan Woods, Forbes “
47. Contextual Commerce
• Definition
– A monetization practice where the content
environment pre-qualifies the end-user as being
more likely to purchase a product or service
• Benefits
– Offers high density of prospects…low waste
– Can be much more efficient
– Offers consumer insight and a meaningful
foundation for brand engagement
48. Mobile‟s Role in Contextual Commerce
• Uniquely capable of realizing relevance with
the consumer
– Mobile device is the “lifestyle remote control”
– Capable of robust, brand-to-one connectivity
– Adds dimension to the “context” of message
consumption
• Making mobile more “relevant” for the brand
– Break through the clutter
– Access: 44% of all media consumed out-of-home
• Creates a “proximity to the consumptive decision”
– Builds greater understanding of consumer behavior
49. Putting Mobile‟s Relevance in Motion
• Nearly 95% of sms messages are read
– 70% in less than five minutes from receipt
– Achieves greater sales lift, sales velocity and campaign
efficiencies
• Mobile coupons deliver superior redemption rates
– Not uncommon to achieve 30-40% redemption
– 10-times direct mail or newspapers
– 3-times online coupons
• Contextual commerce conversion comparisons:
– TV: .01% to .5%
– Web: .5% to 1.5%
– Mobile: 5% to 10%
50. Understanding the Challenges
• Key indicators show Mobile‟s Brand-to-One
connectivity is NOT being taken advantage of…
– Average life span for an app is between 5 and 28 days
– According to industry sources, 90% of all apps are opened
only once
– The “engagement variable” of the % of downloaded apps that
are “active” is somewhere between 5% and 10%
• When was the last time any brand was happy with
being “relevant” to only 10% of the once-engaged
customers?
• Can we set the bar any lower????
51. Mobile‟s Opportunity within Retail
• Capitalize on Mobile‟s unique ability of greater
contextual intelligence
– Mobile can target demographics, psychographics, and even
geographic proximity…
• Target and Refine
– Can trigger by geo, by time…
– Can “wipe” whatever is pushed out…
– Control the channel of content delivery…limit taxation of data
plan and battery charge…
• Deliver…
– Meaningful, Sustainable, Monetizable Relationships
– Importance of strategy and analytics
• Realizing Near-Real-Time Relevance
52. Mobile and the Retail Vertical
• Be Relevant
– Data/analytics key to maintaining a meaningful consumer
relationship
– “Value” is the ultimate currency in establishing consumer relevance
• Be a brand…Act like one…
– Reinforce all brand properties…not just sales/deals
• Activate “Context
– Not just who the target is…and what the message is…BUT where
they are, where they have been, and where likely to go…
– Deals and offers need to be relevant
– Use Lat/Long/ Radius…even Lat/Long/Radii…
• Push can be Powerful
– Richest of content can be distributed through controlled wifi
channel
– Major “rich” events can be pre-loaded on the app for friction-less,
ubiquitous viewing when launched by time/geo trigger…
• Make the Consumer feel Special
53. Critical to Remember
• Goal
– Getting the consumer to transact is not the goal…
– The goal is getting the consumer to transact…AGAIN
• POS versus POC
– Point of Sale is important, but do not get caught up in the
technology…it is the value that is critical
– POC is even more important…Point of Consumer…get them
when they are near…
• The Road to Relevance
– Lifestyle pertinence is the ultimate portal to connectivity
– Value can morph a connection into an engagement
– Offering Value with Frequency…and engagement can build to
trust
• The Right Mobile Strategy Takes You There
54. mBlox: Powering Mobile Commerce
• Core business of mobile messaging and payments
– Sits between the transacting brand and the consumer 5
billion times annually
• mCommerce innovation suite dedicated to next-
generation engagement
– Hyper-local behavioral intelligence offers “context on
steroids:”
• not just who you are and where you are…but where you
have been…
– Heightened handset functionality
• Rich content push, campaign targeting and management

58. Summary

context…for maximum return

ROI…with emphasis on the “Return”
• Lift in sales, redemption, average ticket price…
• Impact on sales window with velocity of mobile…
• Campaign refinement is an ongoing opportunity

attached…valuable data…
• The goal: Real-Time Relevance with your audience
