Mobile marketing has steadily been growing within the last few years and is expected to double every year for the following 5 years, as more people get smartphones or other wireless mobile devices. Marketing experts predict Mobile Marketing will come to be an $20 billion industry.
If you are still in the Dark Ages, and wondering what Mobile Marketing is; it is a way to engage with those customers who only use wireless devices like smartphones, iPads and tablets to make use of the web. The key word here's "engage" - building relationships with your customers.
Mobile Marketing is also a preferred way of marketing to your customers because they have to give you permission to do so. Including clicking on a hyperlink to opt-in, or downloading an app. Your customer can buy your offer immediately as well as pay it off from his mobile device, giving instant gratification.
One more reason why mobile marketing is preferred, is the demographics: your mobile user's age group comes from 18 to 49 who will often have a degree and a higher paying occupation to become in a position to afford the device.
