The cell phone market is growing at a tremendous rate, but whereas users in the past did not use their cell phones as much for online browsing as for SMS and telephony, things have changed drastically the last few years. If you want to reach the bulk of consumers today you need to make use of mobile advertising.
Traditional flyers had a 2% return rate. It is extremely low when considering the cost of printing and distribution. Television advertisers also make use of a hit and miss method of marketing. Although the advertisers can predict who will watch a soapy or a specific sports game, they don’t have any guarantee that the viewer will in fact watch their ad at all. Considering the cost that goes into the making of the ad and then the expensive ad broadcasting rates, it is no wonder that companies look to other ways to bring their messages home.
Mobile advertising is the answer because the user is not bombarded with irrelevant messages which they have not asked for in the first instance. With mobile advertising the user subscribes to receive specific messages and is thus willing to receive and respond to the messages. The ads can be in the form of text, music, video or animations according to user preferences and are delivered at the time when the user will most likely open the message. One thing that everyone does with a cell phone is to regularly check their messages. The user is also more likely to respond especially when you have a tremendous offer that will expire in a few hours.
You are able to interact with the client through competitions, mobile games, and MMS boards. Apart from the mentioned tools you also have a mobile website which can be highly interactive and ensure user interest at all times. Important messages such as statements or confirmations can be done through an SMS system.
