The Static Location Data MarketThe Static Location Data Market

The Static World: Learning From The Past Prevalent business models for static data in mobile systems have been fee-based

(either transaction or subscription fees)

Price held back mobile consumer adoption− High cost associated with creating and distributing high-quality local data (most

notably, mapping data)

Increased competition and advances in technology − Prices came down − Ushered in the rapid rise of navigation units

Response to consumer fee fatigue driving development of new successful models for dynamic content

Where Will The Road Lead?Where Will The Road Lead?

The marriage of dynamic local content and advertising is a near-perfect one

The ad model itself, by removing the price barrier to adoption, creates reach

Dynamic content increases ad value by encouraging frequent use and continuous engagement

Location increases ad value by getting the advertiser’s message to the consumer at the right time and place to maximize the likelihood of response

Survival depends on achieving the delicate balance between unobtrusiveness and effectiveness
