2. Aligning Channels with Customers…and Maturity
Put your money where your customers are:
What channels do your customers use most frequently? How
have they evolved?
Align your marketing strategies and spend with customer
behavior
Multi-channel strategies depend a lot on your
organization’s marketing maturity and customer base
Early technology adopters? emerging channels, online
video
Industry average? email, search, some mobile
Laggards only making their case for email marketing

5. Why Mobile Makes Sense
Some points
Mobile phones are highly personal objects - offer major
opportunities for one-to-one, brand-to-consumer
communication
Different available technologies (SMS, MMS, WAP, i-
mode™…) enable interactive and real-time dialogue
An interactive channel par excellence, mobile phones are
powerful communication channels and can funnel traffic to
physical and electronic points of contact
Their main usage is for interpersonal communications -
mobile marketing benefits from this viral nature of
communications within communities

Marketers are using mobile to foster cross-promotion between other
media (ads, billboards, DM… like URLs)
