Entrepreneur and Advertising Mogul says Local Businesses must adapt Web Presence to the emerging mobile market
(firmenpresse) - Anthony Morrison has come out saying that local businesses must adapt to the changed advertising landscape. Morrison claims that due to the consumer shift towards mobile technology local businesses must expand their advertising efforts from the traditional desktop and laptops to into the “small screen.â€
He emphasizes the importance of reaching customers where they are most accessible, in their mobile devices. The proliferation of different mobile platforms, like Apple and Samsung tablets, as well as the popularity of these devices as avenue for online shopping, makes mobile marketing attractive to entrepreneurs.
“You see, there are prospects and customers right around the corner from your business right now. And, they’re on their mobile devices shopping and researching products and services. The goal is to get their attention when they’re at home, when they’re out, and to make sure that they know where you are and what you have to offer.â€
Morrison goes on to make the point that much web-based shopping is no longer being done on large computers at home, but on small mobile devices. He implores business owners to realize and take advantage of this trend to promote and make their products available to a wider audience. He stresses the importance of using mobile apps to grab the attention of online shoppers and make more sales.
“Your reach, to get to that mobile customer, must also utilize mobile apps and particularly text message SMS marketing,†he adds. He mentions the importance of having a mobile version of a business’s web presence, SMS and text marketing, and different sets of apps for Android and iOS users.
