Here are some interesting statistics regarding Mobile Marketing, how it has grown and how we expect it to continue to grow in 2016.
More than 50% of mobile phone users grab their phones within the first few seconds of waking up! YES 50%! This is how reliant we are on our phones. How attached we are to them. Make sure your business is up and ready to go! The early bird catches the worm.
If your company is not Mobile friendly and ready, NOW is the time, people are increasingly using their Mobiles to access web pages and information. Having said this making sure your business is easily accessible via a smart phone and tablet is a key ingredient to your online marketing strategy (mix).
Over 50% of people use their mobile devices to access their emails, browse social media platforms and get all the information they require. So if you are not mobile ready you are potentially missing out on 50% of your potential market.
