Marketers Must Focus on Frequency, Relevancy & Rendering to Win on Mobile
None of the above
It is redundant to what the brand has already pushed me through the application that I have on my phone
I have their App, they should message me this way
Message is jumbled and not well formatted on my mobile phone
When I click through it is too hard to see their full web-site on my mobile phone
Too small to read and interact with
They are not relevant to me
Sent too often, I get too many of them
