Due to this fact, small businesses are realizing that mobile devices are a great way to reach prospects and expand their customer base. The reason why we are so glued to our mobile devices is because we can perform simple tasks quickly.

This is why mobile apps are gaining popularity at a very fast rate. Mobile applications are those simple software programs we install in our mobile phones to make our daily life easy and more interesting when using these devices. There are literally applications for everything and all of them were designed with the targeted user in mind. Mobile applications are built to be user-friendly, simple, attractive, and fast.
People today are extremely busy so they just want something to click on and the information they are seeking appears. Small businesses can achieve this through mobile apps because with a couple of simple clicks, the customer will be reading information about available products or services.

A new trend has emerged where mobile phones are responsible for making business brands a household name through the use of mobile apps.

Your customers should enjoy using your apps and many will spread the word about them to other consumers. By providing something that people find interesting, you will not have to market it so much as it will sell itself.  If people keep the mobile app in their phones, it means they like it and will be checking it often, which gives you a chance to advertise your products and services to them on an on-going basis. Therefore, make sure your app has an attractive icon, is easy to use, and provides extreme value to your customers.

The social media craze is growing daily, the shear number of users that now have Face Book and/or Twitter accounts only prove what a great resource they are. However with increased needs to have your message displayed on these sites, comes a whole new area of responsibility for small businesses. Yes, if you’re a large company, you have a department that creates content for your website. You have a department that posts your messages to both Face Book and tweets to Twitter. Then you have another mobile development department that has someone to add your news to your mobile applications and then resubmits them to the Apple Store or Google App Store. That’s more people than work at your company!

Until recently there were only a small few options to get your content placed on the Social Media scene. First was the follow us module / widget that displayed your Facebook, Twitter, Digg This, etc. accounts, hoping they would post something about your company. Then came share this plugins or modules that allowed visitors to your website to share your content directly with their friends on their pages. The only problem with this, is it depends on them visiting your website, your Face Book page and actually clicking on buttons. Another option was to send your RSS feed to Facebook, the only drawback is that they on your RSS feed in order to update your accounts. This means that if there is a problem with your RSS feed, your Twitter and Facebook accounts will not be updated. This can be a big problem if something goes wrong with your feed, and there is always a risk of that if you use an external service such as Feed burner to handle your RSS feeds.

We offer the ability to set your company up with a customized Word Press website and Mobile Application for either iPhone/iPad or Android, that every time you post it sends that post to Facebook, Twitter and your Mobile Application. There by easing the process of staying on top of your Social Media network. Your customers now have your latest offer in the palm of their hands. Plus we can add a feature that will send a notification directly to their phone letting them know there is a new offer. A recent report shows that notifications on user’s smart phones are read almost immediately and also are read 90% of the time. Best case an email is read 15% of the time. Talk about mobile marketing that has an impact on your potential customers that WORKS!

It’s sometimes tough to know what aspect of mobile marketing you should use. Let the message you are trying to get to your customer help you decide. In other words, you should go with the flow with whatever works better with one method than the other.

Start by looking at the way your consumer contacts you the most or what their preferences are. If you notice customers always texting then that might be a perfect fit. The point is to have a plan of action before you do anything.

If you want to use mobile coupons then try no to make the customers print them to redeem. Not many people have the ability to print them and it will negate the point of your marketing efforts to make this common mistake.

Think about using QR codes as well. They are similar to bar codes that you scan, only with a smart phone. Most Mobile phones have the ability to scan them and they will show the customer your message. They can be a great way to have people engage with your business online. Link the code to a special offer, discount or giveaway message to create real buzz for your brand!

Offer cell phone users a free gift if they subscribe to your mobile content. This can encourage users to opt-in to receive your adverts, which means you don’t have to fear being branded a spammer. You could also offer a gift which requires users to spend money with your company in the future in order to receive all the benefits of the gift.

Notifications are now your strongest method of reaching your mobile audience. A recent report shows that notifications are more read than emails, SMS messages or any other delivery method. Part of the reason is, they already have an interest in your company as they downloaded your app.

However, limit the amount of notifications you’re sending via your mobile marketing campaign. Not only is it hard to come up with winning campaigns on a daily basis, but your list of subscribers won’t like it either. Keep your messages at a minimum unless you really have something to say.

Use mobile marketing to it’s full potential. Things are changing all the time with mobile marketing and devices. Be aware of what’s going on with mobile marketing and devices to stay ahead of the game. By doing this you’ll be on the cutting edge of the mobile marketing scene.
