To Realize Mobile’s Potential

We Need To:

• Make mobile content easier to create.

• Make mobile advertising more

engaging, fun, and interesting.

• Make mobile advertising easier to buy.

• Demonstrate mobile’s value in a cross-

screen, cross-media world.

24

Note: Devices chosen as examples to highlight range of screen sizes

(measured in pixels) in US market currently. Images not to scale. Sources:

Apple iPhone 5

Key Decision Points Include:

• Content type: Apps versus Mobile Web

versus both.

• Operating system: Android? iOS?

Windows 8? BlackBerry?

• Device Type: Tablets? Smartphones?

Hybrids? Not-smart-phones?

• It’s hard to do all of these well

simultaneously.

Creating Mobile Content


New Technologies Will Help

• Responsive Design: A set of

technologies that enable web

servers to change content elements

and layout in response to the

screen size of the requesting

device.

• HTML5: The next-generation

standard for creating web content.

Enables very rich, “app-like”

experiences without needing to

design native apps for each and

every device/operating system.

Advertisers Needs

• Same in mobile as in any other medium.

• To reach a desired audience (people who

will be interested in their product/service)

• To reach them with a relevant message the

audience will like or respond to

• To reach everyone in that target audience

easily and efficiently

• To be able to measure the outcomes of that

advertising campaign. Did it work?

Make Buying Easier


Several Ways to Buy • Direct: agency buys directly

from a media company/publisher

ad sales force.

• Network: agency buys via an ad

network, which aggregates ad

inventory from a large number of

publishers

• Exchange/Real Time Bidding:

agency buys ad inventory as it

becomes available by bidding

using automated systems

Make Buying Easier

Mobile’s Complex Landscape Make Buying Easier

We need a simpler story to tell about

the path connecting marketers and

consumers!

Consumer Behavior,” Released August 2012.

Ads Tap Into Co-Viewing

• TV ad campaigns use Shazam and other

technologies to encourage users to interact

via mobile.



Research and Education Needed

• We intuitively believe

that someone who

sees an ad campaign

on their TV, PC, and

smartphone will be

more likely to recall

that ad.

• IAB has launched a

major research effort

to prove and quantify

ad synergies.



Concluding Thoughts

• Mobile data is transforming the way

people live.

• Where the people are, advertisers will

go…eventually.

• But we have work to do to make mobile

more media and ad-friendly.

• The pace of innovation in mobile media

shows no signs of slowing: lots of new

exciting developments to come!
