"Mobile analytics has the power to unlock the media journey of consumers and provide a new dimension of rich behavioral data. This data is key to optimizing mobile experiences, driving higher conversions and improving mobile program ROI, " says Mike Ricci, Vice President of Mobile at Webtrends. "This paper establishes the groundwork on how marketers can leverage mobile analytics, tap into the tools in the mobile toolbox and apply the data to not only evolve their mobile experience but also evolve their entire marketing strategy."
"The MMA Primer on Mobile Analytics" identifies the multitude of mobile programs and capabilities that generate quantifiable and qualitative metrics such as mobile web and application experiences, multimedia messaging (SMS/MMS), as well as context elements like location, time, proximity and device. Additionally, mobile commerce and payment systems are budding platforms that offer a wealth of data for creating relevant consumer engagement. With mobile leading and supplementing integrated marketing campaigns, mobile analytics has the potential to produce a full spectrum analysis of the entire marketing funnel from consumer awareness to advocacy.
"Recent studies from the MMA, Mary Meeker and others suggest that there will be a dramatic shift in media spending in the near future, with many billions of dollars being directed toward mobile," said Michael Becker, Managing Director of the Mobile Marketing Association. "It is imperative for the marketing community to embrace the latest best practices of mobile analytics and measurement techniques to achieve an optimal return on investment with mobile as an integral part of the marketing mix."
The whitepaper also voiced how to effectively structure an analytics framework, as well as a deeper dive into industry challenges with privacy considerations as the most paramount issue.
