What We Did And Why We Did It…
⁄ IAB commissioned RED C to assess current customer attitudes towards and usage of mobile and tablets in Ireland, while also developing an understanding of expected usage in the future.
⁄ The context for this study was to enable advertisers to better understand the mobile advertising opportunity in the Irish Market.
⁄ In order to do this, a two phase approach was taken:
1. Online survey with smartphone users – capturing customer behaviour on a micro level.
2. Expert interviews with industry experts – collecting an in-depth evaluation of current and future usage on a macro level.
⁄ All quantitative fieldwork was conducted between 15th – 23rd
October, while qualitative research took place between 1st –6th November.

Putting Mobile at the heart of your plan…
⁄ “Companies need to prioritise the mobile: Mobile first, PC last. Mobile sites need to be transactional”
What do we need to do:
Put mobile at the start of your campaign, and work out from that
New advertising model – internet advertising model unlikely to be fit for mobile “Creativity is key, there is a need to redefine advertising”
Ensure every aspect of the campaign and our online offering across the board is optimised for mobile
Ensure your campaign can be utilised cross platform, whatever device is used
“The entire journey need to be mobile optimised…a final click to a badly optimised landing page destroys a campaign”

Keeping up…
⁄ “Early days” – lots of trial & error
⁄ Functions/apps liked for fun/novelty but this will change as market mature – need for relevance and context
⁄ Lots of development are consumer driven - demand for 4G, Cloud and Taking Control
What do we need:
Convergence of platforms – “Technical issues are the biggest barrier to growth”
Keep abreast of ever changing consumer needs and usage
Introduce technologies/apps that cover real needs in the market place, utilise the mobile phone technologies and are contextual – “Avoid too many fads”
“Too many companies try something in blind,
we need a more planned approach to
optimise this platform.”
“Customers are there; the market
needs to catch up.”

Being Relevant and Contextual…
⁄ Consumers are open to advertising content – more so in Ireland than other countries
⁄ Managing frequency is important – you don’t mind if the message or offer is relevant.
What do we need:
Be relevant/contexual
Utilise phone functionalities, e.g. GPS, contacts, etc.
Utilise new technologies, e.g. near field or Shazam
“Think about mobile as a connection point throughout the day, and make campaigns
that build on this.”
1. Run media platforms to provide rich content rather than run straight to an app,
2. Use technology built in to the phone to engage,
3. Optimise final landing page
“Smartphone advertising allows for deeper, richer levels of
engagement with consumers.”

Providing Value & Enabling Easy Redemption…
⁄ Mobile gaining importance for entertainment & search but remains behind PC in terms of spend
⁄ “Consumers set aside time for complex transactions. They log onto their computer and complete transactions there”
⁄ Lack of transactional functionalities on mobile is the key barrier for growth – non-optimised sites, small screen, lack of keyboard – concerns about security is much less of an issue.
What do we need:
Mobile/tablet optimised sites for transactions
Reward (e.g. vouchers/discounts) for purchasing through these channels – to prompt further use
“Often mobile sites provide rich product information but then link to PC website for
buying.”
“Smartphone’s are the dominant internet
connection and the market needs to realise that: Mobile first, PC last.”
