SMS/TEXT MESSAGING Results of a U.S 10 | 2010 MOBILE MARKETING: SMS/TEXT MESSAGING Results of a U.S. Survey of Trade Shows, Exhibitions & Conferences + Observations and Tips Sponsored by ENCORE MEDIA PARTNERS Introduction SMS/TEXT MESSAGING HAS EXPLODED OVER THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS. According to the CTIA’s U.S. Wireless Quick Facts, Year-End Figures, at the end of 2005, 9.8 billion text messages were sent per month, and just four years later at the end of 2009, 152.7 billion text messages were being sent per month. While text messaging is still strongest by far in the teen and young adult segments, it has clearly evolved into a mainstream media habit (see the August 24, 2010 nielsenwire blog post for usage by age). Expanding use of SMS across the age spectrum is also reflected in a July 8, 2010 comScore press release, which indicates 65.2% of U.S. mobile subscribers used text messaging on their mobile device in May 2010. Forward-thinking marketers are embracing this fast-growing channel, and using it in a variety of ways to connect with their audiences. In order to gain a better understanding of how trade show, exhibition and conference producers are employing SMS marketing, Encore Media Partners, Red 7 Media and EXPO Magazine have worked together to develop this report. The purpose of this report is to provide show management with key insights and results from the survey, so you can have a better understanding of what other trade shows, exhibitions and conferences are doing. We also offer some observations and tips that you may find helpful as you plan your mobile marketing strategy. Trade show, exhibition and conference producers are venturing into this emerging channel. Consider that a combined 50% of the shows responding to the survey are using or planning to use SMS marketing within the year. What is certainly a good sign in terms of effectiveness is that of those who are already using SMS marketing, 59% expect to increase their usage INSIDE THIS REPORT and 41% expect to maintain their current level of usage, with none planning to cut or reduce.

About the Sponsors .............................8 Sponsored by Encore Media Partners and EXPO Magazine 1 Methodology & About the Respondents In July and August 2010 an email survey was sent to a cross-section of trade show, exhibition and conference executives and managers. A total of 2,012 surveys were sent out and 105 people responded for a 5.2% response rate. The following is the profile of the survey respondent organizations. TYPE OF ORGANIZATION ASSOCIATION/SOCIETY/INSTITUTE .........................................................................50% FOR-PROFIT B2B EXHIBITION ORGANIZER .............................................................22% INTEGRATED B2B MEDIA COMPANY .......................................................................13% CORPORATE MEETING PLANNER ............................................................................4% CONFERENCE PRODUCER .......................................................................................4% CONSUMER SHOW PRODUCER...............................................................................3% OTHER .......................................................................................................................4% Definition of Key Terms Used in Report SMS: Short Message Service (“text messaging” or “texting”) is a communications protocol that enables text-only content limited to 160 characters to be sent between mobile phones. KEYWORD: A word used to distinguish a message in an SMS program. For example, text “ENCORE” to 55555 to get your free SMS white paper. “ENCORE” is the keyword here. SHORT CODE: A short phone number which in the U.S. is usually five digits but can also be six digits to which text messages can be sent from a mobile phone to access mobile content. In the example above, “55555” is the short code. DEDICATED SHORT CODE: A short code that is dedicated to just one company. SHARED SHORT CODE: A shared code means that other companies will be running SMS programs on the same short code. Through the use of different keywords, the traffic is routed to the right company. Sponsored by Encore Media Partners and EXPO Magazine 2 Why Use SMS/Text Messaging to Promote Your Shows? Reprinted from an EXPO blog post by Cristopher Levy, Encore Media Partners, on June 3, 2010 According to the most recent CTIA-The Wireless Association® Semi-Annual Wireless Industry Survey Results, “more than 822 billion text messages [were] sent and received on carriers’ networks during the last half of 2009 – amounting to almost 5 billion messages per day at the end of the year.” If you are not already employing SMS/text messaging for your shows, the continued massive growth in this channel should cause you to take notice. As with any channel you will need to evaluate the potential for your shows based on your objectives, testing and target audiences but now is the time to get the ball rolling. Why use SMS/text messaging to market your shows? Here are ten reasons… 1. SMS capable mobile phones are ubiquitous. 2. Texting is very popular and growing. 3. It is simple to execute. 4. It requires little ramp-up time if you use a shared short code. 5. It can be rolled-out with relatively little investment. 6. It can help you activate your other media. 7. It can be used to track adjacent media. 8. It provides an excellent channel for remarketing. 9. It offers a much less cluttered environment than the email inbox. 10. It offers real-time measurability. Sponsored by Encore Media Partners and EXPO Magazine 3 Survey Results Do you use SMS/text messaging to promote your events?

  • Taxonomy of Mobile Web Applications from a Taxonomy and Business Analysis for Mobile Web Applications
    Chapter 3: Taxonomy of Mobile Web Applications from A Taxonomy and Business Analysis for Mobile Web Applications By Kevin Hao Liu Ph.D. Computer Science Victoria University Submitted to the System Design and Management Program in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Management and Engineering At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology February 2009 © 2009 Kevin H Liu. All rights reserved The author hereby grants to MIT permission to reproduce and to distribute publicly paper and electronic copies of this thesis document in whole or in part in any medium now known or hereafter created. ABSTRACT Mobile web applications refer to web applications on mobile devices, aimed at personalizing, integrating, and discovering mobile contents in user contexts. This thesis presents a comprehensive study of mobile web applications by proposing a new taxonomy for mobile web applications, and conducting a business analysis in the field of mobile web applications. The thesis reviews the current surrounding environment for mobile web applications, namely, web 2.0 and 3.0, wireless communication technology, and Smartphone platform. The recent entry and success of Apple’s iPhone greatly enhanced the public awareness of the Smartphone technology. Google’s release of open-source Android platform and T-Mobile’s deployment of Android-powered “Dream” Smartphone not only intensify the competition among suppliers, but also provide an open-source foundation for mobile web applications. This thesis introduces a new mobile web application taxonomy to systematically study the values and the groupings of the mobile web applications. By introducing features and categories, the taxonomy provides a framework so the related companies and businesses can be comparatively analyzed and summarized.

  • Apps and Mobile Web
    IAB Mobile Marketing Center of Excellence Apps and Mobile Web: Understanding the Two Sides of the Mobile Coin 16 December 2014 Agenda • Introduction • Where Mobile Users Spend Their Time • Explaining the “App Gap” • Search and Social are the Mobile “Front Door” for Web Content 1 Introduction Mobile internet use is divided into two modes: browsing the mobile web and using mobile applications (“apps”). Many kinds of content or service can be provided or accessed equally well via either app or mobile web; however, some are available exclusively via one or the other. Media companies, agencies, and marketers face some confusion regarding whether they should focus their strategies predominantly on apps or mobile web. At the simplest level, many measurement firms report that mobile internet usage gravitates very heavily toward mobile apps, and so a naïve view emerges that apps have somehow “won,” and that mobile web is unimportant. This overlooks the important role mobile websites play in people’s total mobile internet experiences. In practice, in daily use of the mobile internet, consumers make use of both apps and mobile browsing, trading off based on expediency and personal preference. To investigate the question of browsing versus using mobile apps, the IAB commissioned Harris Poll to survey over 2,000 U.S. adults about their views on apps and mobile websites, and how they find and share both apps and websites that they access on their smartphones. The survey was conducted online in December, 2014. Source: IAB 2014 Apps and Mobile Web Consumer Survey, conducted online by Harris Poll, 2 December 12-16, 2014.

Mobile phones will be the primary way these people come online. This change is already unfolding rapidly and generating worldwide excite- ment, as mobile phones begin to play their part in improving social and economic outcomes around the world. But now is the time to ask, what kind of Internet do we need to build to unlock these social and economic opportunities for people in emerging markets? Even if we solve key issues like access, affordability, and efficiency, what will the next bil- lion Internet users find when they get online? Will it interest them? Will it improve their lives? Will they be able to help shape the Internet to ensure that it does? Mark Surman, a community activist and technology executive for more than 20 years, is Executive Director of the Mozilla Foundation, makers of Firefox, and one of the largest social enterprises in the world. In his position at Mozilla, Mark is focused on using the open technology and ethos of the web to transform fields such as education, journalism, and filmmaking.

  • Mobile Tv: Challenges and Opportunities Beyond 2011
    REFERENCE SERIES NO. 3 MAPPING DIGITAL MEDIA: MOBILE TV: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES BEYOND 2011 By Ronan de Renesse March 2011 Mobile TV: Challenges and Opportunities Beyond 2011 WRITTEN BY Ronan de Renesse1 Media consumption has changed drastically over the past decade. With TV content now accessible everywhere at any time, consumer behaviour and trends are evolving fast. Online TV is a new platform that brings instant free access to favorite content and signifi cantly disrupted the conventional TV business as a result. Given the success of smart phones and application stores, how will mobile aff ect the TV ecosystem? What opportunities and dangers does it hold? Th is paper addresses these questions while providing an overview of the mobile TV sector. As originally defi ned and designed (linear TV streaming on handsets), mobile TV is on the brink of extinction. Yet, demand for video content on mobile is stronger than ever. Mobile TV will have to be reborn and transformed in terms of format, content and business model. Th e guardians of the TV and mobile ecosystem should facilitate this transformation while protecting customers’ interests. 1. Senior Analyst and Head of Mobile Media at Screen Digest. Mapping Digital Media Th e values that underpin good journalism, the need of citizens for reliable and abundant information, and the importance of such information for a healthy society and a robust democracy: these are perennial, and provide compass-bearings for anyone trying to make sense of current changes across the media landscape. Th e standards in the profession are in the process of being set.

  • Exploring the Logic of Mobile Search
    Exploring the logic of mobile search' Osear Westlunda, José-Luis Gómez-Barrosob, Ramón Compaño0 and Claudio Feijóod* "Department of Journalism, Media and Communication, University ofGothenhurg, Gothenhurg, Sweden; Dpto. Economía Aplicada e Historia Económica, UNED - Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia, Madrid, Spain; "IPTS - Institute for Prospective Technological Studies, Directorate General Joint Research Centre - European Commission, Seville, Spain; CeDInt, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Campus de Montegancedo, Pozuelo de Alarcón, Spain After more than a decade of development work and hopes, the usage of mobile Internet has finally taken off. Now, we are witnessing the first signs of evidence of what might become the explosión of mobile content and applications that will be shaping the (mobile) Internet of the future. Similar to the wired Internet, search will become very relevant for the usage of mobile Internet. Current research on mobile search has applied a limited set of methodologies and has also generated a narrow outeome of meaningful results. This article covers new ground, exploring the use and visions of mobile search with a users' interview-based qualitative study. Its main conclusión builds upon the hypothesis that mobile search is sensitive to a mobile logic different than today's one. First, (advanced) users ask for accessing with their mobile devices the entire Internet, rather than subsections of it. Second, success is based on new added-value applications that exploit unique mobile functionalities. The authors interpret that such mobile logic involves fundamentally the use of personalised and context-based services.
