U.S. brands have integrated mobile marketing into their traditional advertising campaigns, CRM programs and Call Centers in order to increase higher response, enhance loyalty and improve customer relations. When applied correctly, targeted and creatively, mobile marketing gives exceptional results.

“Most people today use a cell phone. Lack of cell phone spam translates into a major channel of communications without the noise of traditional channels,” explained John Spagnuolo, President of the New Media Institute.

“The closer and the more targeted you connect with consumers within their lifestyle, the better your results will be,” noted Bas Vervoort, Director of InMovil Media. “When properly and creatively executed, mobile marketing can increase traditional response rates by 5-20%, Moreover it delivers a higher-level of customer service and enhances loyalty.”
