Social Media and Mobile together in the future is inevitable prediction. These two phenomenon’s have already taken over our lives and it won’t stop.
Today I personally check in on foursquare for the fun of it and because I want to see if I get a deal at a location. I use coupons on my mobile device, and I use Facebook on my mobile device. With mobile becoming a big motivator to advertisers in 2011 it shows how impactful the mobile device has become. Mobile commerce information shows huge increase of mobile purchases.
People these days do mobile searches all the time and they are looking for answers to their questions. If it’s not where is the gas station, to what restaurant should I go to. People want to know what others think about things too. So this is where social media comes in, its reviews on things. I use Yelp, or urbanspoon to find recommendations on restaurants. I do this on my mobile device and I am part of a community.
All in all Mobile and Social media will only become more powerful in the coming months and years, and many marketers and gravitating towards this revolution to target segmented audiences.
So how long until you start advertising on mobile devices? How can you promote yourself for free on smart phones?
