Mobile Marketing At Festivals

We at Mobile Media Savvy enjoy our music and feel that mobile marketing can do alot for the music industry and festivals this summer. Today there has been an article in the new about digital wristbands being used at festivals to combat fraud and allow festival goers to purchase products and services through the chip that will be embedded within the wrist band.

We at Mobile Media Savvy feel that they could go even further and have a mobile enabled website dedicated to each festival goer, this would allow them to interact with each other as well as make sure they don't miss the artists and bands that they would most like to view. This can be done by notifying the user via an alert on their phone when the artist is coming on soon and an interactive festival map can lead them to their destination.

As well as helping festival goers with their directions and time keeping, the mobile enabled website could allow them to pay for items which would stop them from holding cash and would make the numerous queues at festivals go alot quicker and more efficiently.

This will allow festival goers to further personalise their experience at the festival as well as keeping them safe and allow them to enjoy their experience more than they could ever of thought.

We at Mobile Media Savvy are passionate in all things to do with mobile marketing so do not be afraid to get in contact and receive a free 15 minute consultation for your business

Mega Monday, The Times Are Changing Drastically!!

We at Mobile Media Savvy are looking forward to Christmas as I imagine most people are though it is still November so not quite in the Christmas spirit yet.

This is not stopping what the media are calling 'Mega Monday', today (28/11) is supposed to be the busiest day of the year with Christmas shopping transactions so much so that there will be reportedly 3300 transactions a minute with the peak times being 1pm and 7pm totaling over 300million in sales.

Online sales will be up to 25% which is an increase of 16% on last year as well as this Christmas being the first significant mobile Christmas with 12% of transactions being placed through a smartphone, this will only increase year on year.

These stats accurately show that mobile is having a telling effect on consumers and how they are wanting to interact with brands through their mobile devices. The 12% of transactions is only the tip of the iceberg as alot of consumers will be using their smartphones to gain more information of both offline and online sales while they are on the go.

B2B Mobile Marketing Tips

We at Mobile Media Savvy believe that the B2B businesses can benefit from mobile marketing as much as the B2C businesses this is because of the fact that all business professionals are attached to one item when they are working and that is their mobile phone.

The way in which B2B businesses can use the products and services of mobile marketing are much the same as the principles of the B2C market.

SMS's can be used to inform your customers of up and coming subscription renewal dates such as in the insurance industry.

QR codes would be useful to blur the line between online and offline marketing if your current marketing campaign consists of offline material such as flyers or brochures.

Social media can be used to integrate with your current traditional marketing campaigns as well as attract people to follow or like you once they are in possession of a mobile marketing piece of material.

Mobile websites can help in the B2B market as if you are meeting someone they could be doing some last minute research on your business and if it's optimised for a mobile phone then your business looks very professional and with the times.

Video & Podcasts are another great tool of mobile marketing in that you can voice your opinions and expertise in front of your clients and potential clients can find out about you aswell as know that your business has a real face behind it.

This is only the tip of the iceberg and the opportunities for mobile marketing in the B2B market are endless
