inside a store to engage their shopping
experience, up from 64% in 2012.

“50 % of shoppers believe they are
better informed than sales staff and
store associates, in part because of
what mobile connectivity allows them
to do ”

check your phone for a
better price…
or you just go buy on
Amazon Instead!”

Amazon’s one-click

@koombea #MobileExperience
The question is how do we take
in-store marketing and make
it a mobile experience?

13.
@koombea #MobileExperience
There are many ways to do it:
1. Mobile app campaigns
2. Beacon technologies
3. Mobile apps w advantage in push
notifications
4. Gamification in apps
5. Wi-Fi

Mobile App Campaigns
1.
@koombea #MobileExperience

15.
Success story 1:
@koombea #MobileExperience
IKEA catalogue app
offers the user an
interactive experience,
for example through a
feature that allows the
users to project the
images of furniture into
their own houses.

16.
@koombea #MobileExperience
Success story 2:
Starbucks mobile app
offers fast and easy
payment features that
enhance user
experience. Additional
offers and perks like the
Pick of the Week program
are used to engage the
customer.

17.
@koombea #MobileExperience
Beacon Technologies,
are you using them yet?
2.

18.
@koombea #MobileExperience
Beacons are low-cost hardware, small
enough to attach to walls or
countertops.
They are types of transmitters that can
deliver targeted information to a user’s
mobile device whenever they go near it
with an enabled app.
They alleviate the limitations of GPS
and Wireless signals indoors.
What is Beacon Technology?

@koombea #MobileExperience
What does it have the
potential to do?

22.
@koombea #MobileExperience
The Major League Baseball
(MLB) gave fans an interactive
experience through the use of
Beacons.
Fans who had the relevant app installed
could receive useful information on their
phones, like the map of the stadium, a
digital version of their ticket, merchandise
offers and additional information of the
team.
Success story:

23.
@koombea #MobileExperience
It’s vital that they only interrupt their mobile
customers to add value to their day…
not to disrupt it.

@koombea #MobileExperience
The beauty of
push notifications
3.

25.
Sources: CNET, ComputerWorld, Business Insider
Push notifications are a powerful way to engage users,
so long as you don’t overuse them.
Incorporation of Beacon and iBeacon technology for
Location-specific push notifications.
Allows retailers to target specific locations &
demographics.
Mobile users are more likely to continue using an app if
they are actively engaged and incentivized.
@koombea #MobileExperience

26.
@koombea #MobileExperience
Example: An iPhone user with the Best Buy
app Installed on their device walks by a
storefront or in-store display which triggers a
push notification advertising a flash sale “30%
off LCD TVs” or offers loyalty program as an
incentive.

27.
@koombea #MobileExperience
Push messaging campaigns can
be highly successful and result in a
50% increase in open rates
compared to email.
http://info.localytics.com/blog/the-anatomy-of-a-highly-successful-push-
messaging-campaign

28.
@koombea #MobileExperience
Ask users to opt in to push notifications
upon app install or after the first time they
use an app.
Highlight the benefits of opting in & Be
transparent about how users can opt out
later.
Create user segments & use targeted
language. Don’t batch & blast everyone!
Push Notifications Best Practices:

29.
The initial rush will be towards annoying push marketing,
the real value will come from enriching customer
experiences, e.g.
1. Logging where I parked my car
2. Allowing me to show my shopping list against the
physical store layout
3. Enable rich content relevant to the product I am in
front of

Gamification
4.

34.
Success story: Betterworks
@koombea #MobileExperience

35.
@koombea #MobileExperience
A fun way to boost user engagement & loyalty is
by “gamifying” your app.
Creating contests and leaderboards.
Offering virtual currency or prizes (hey bitcoin!)
Providing an in-app centralized hub that offers
videos, merchandise, tutorials of your product /
app.

36.
@koombea #MobileExperience
Example: A local coffee shop builds out an app
that allows users to pre-order their coffee and pick
up in-store. The app allows users to “check-in”,
from here leaderboards are generated by
frequency of check-ins and orders. Discounts
could be offered to high scoring customers, and
who knows, perhaps the next time a user picked
up their coffee there was a free T-Shirt waiting for
them as well. Simple really, and companies like
FourSquare have been massively successful with
very similar models.

37.
Success story: Badgeville
@koombea #MobileExperience
Badgeville is a business gamification
company that helps increase user
engagement. It provides companies
with the right platform to measure and
influence user behavior. It specializes
in community engagement, omni-
channel commerce, customer
acquisition.

@koombea #MobileExperience
Consumer shopping trends will continue to
move towards mobile because of its ever-
increasing ease of use and mobility.
The introduction of Beacon & iBeacon
technology brings with it implications of
future incorporation of technology for
analytics, engagement, and marketing in
retail and beyond.
