LocaAon-­‐Based  MarkeAng  –  Make  This  A  Priority  

•  70%  of  consumers  will  share  their  locaAon  info  if  they  get  something  of  value  in  return  such  as  coupons,  rewards,  etc.  (Thrive  AnalyAcs)  

•  If  you  don’t  pay  aaenAon  to  locaAon  in  mobile,  you  will  get  passed  by  (Luke  Edson/YP)  

•  Geo-­‐conquesAng  is  a  new  opportunity  for  mobile  targeAng.  It’s  when  a  perimeter  is  set  around  a  compeAtor's  locaAon.  Ads  are  served  only  2  mobile  users  in  that  area.  (Thrive  AnalyAcs)

Mobile  Search  is  Undersold  

•  Search  is  moving  to  mobile  in  a  huge  way;  and  mobile  searches  result  in  more  sales  &  calls  to  acAon.  Digital  agencies  need  to  sell  more  mobile  search  campaigns  to  ensure  best  results  for  clients.    

 •  Restaurants  represent  the  biggest  mobile  search  category  followed  by  retail  and  local  service  industries  (Luke  Edson/YP)

The  Jury  is  Out  on  Apps  

•  ESPN  shut  down  more  than  40  mobile  apps  to  focus  on  gehng  it  right.  Good  decision?  They  jumped  from  1  million  downloads  to  55  million.  They  are  behng  on  scale.  (JonPaul  Rexing/ESPN)  

 •  Our  recommendaAon  to  local  media  companies:  focus  on  one-­‐two  really  great  apps  for  your  market.  Don’t  go  ‘app-­‐crazy’!

Service  Categories  –  Huge  Oppty  4  Digital  Agency  Services  

•  Service  providers  need  our  help  more  than  any  other  category:  9  out  of  10  plumbers/electricians/HVAC/etc.  have  no  social  presence;  well  over  half  of  them  don’t  have  a  website  and  of  those  that  do,  8  out  of  10  have  no  search  engine  visibility.  (Neal  Polachek)  

 •  RecommendaAon:  sell  packages  to  these  targets  using  an  inside  sales  team  at  price  points  of  $300/month  or  less  (annual  contracts  required).

Healthcare  –  Huge  Opportunity  Area  4  Social  Media  

•  Only  26%  of  hospitals  &  healthcare  organizaAons  are  employing  social  media  in  their  markeAng  plans.  Huge  opportunity!  (Maa  Baldwin/Borrell)

Facebook  RecommendaAons  

•  Digital  agencies:  clients  must  have  a  good  presence  on  FB;  they  need  our  help!  

•  Media  companies  need  to  effecAvely  use  this  platorm  in  more  engaging  ways  

 •  Consider  managing  your  events  through  FB  (if  a  big  brand  like  ESPN  is  doing  it  w/  beaer  results  than  their  own  sites,  that  speaks  volumes!)

Shannon’s  Top  RecommendaAons  1. Publishers  no  longer  have  the  luxury  of  not  recognizing  the  power  of  social  and  mobile  platorms  for  their  businesses  OR  their  adverAsers.  Don’t  be  leu  behind

3. Many  challenges  Publishers  face  are  more  about  sales  training,  skills  development  and  proper  prioriAzaAon  and  incenAves  vs.  technology  

4. AdopAon  and  prioriAzaAon  must  come  from  the  top-­‐down,  empower  middle  managers  to  execute  

5.   Invest  in  lead  generaAon
