MOBILE MARKETING NEWS


Why mobile is still not fully integrated in marketers’ approach: Forrester

Just 13 percent of marketers say mobile is systematically integrated into their marketing approach, reflecting ongoing struggles to measure the return on investment for mobile and to demonstrate its value beyond ROI, according to a new report from Forrester Research.

The report, Beyond ROI: Showcasing The True Impact Of Mobile Marketing, underscores marketers’ ongoing challenges in securing budget for mobile, in part because they are not effectively showcasing mobile’s full value. Marketers must do a better job of highlighting mobile’s impact on customer experience, brand engagement, business results and agility if they want bigger budgets.

"Mobile is much more powerful than the initial numbers from a basic ROI calculation may indicate,” said Jennifer Wise, senior analyst at Forrester Research and co-author of the report.

“Yes, mobile can accomplish many marketing objectives, from boosting brand perception to increasing purchases, but integrating mobile into your strategy does more than that: it amplifies other channels, improves your relationship with your customers, acts as a catalyst for business transformation, and causes a positive ripple effects throughout the organization,” she said.

The report is an update of previously published content that includes new examples and primary research.
