My Opinion
From the many trend sessions and keynotes I have delivered around mobile, I’ve learned that many large brands still have doubts about their mobile presence.
For the mostly well known reasons, marketers are still human beings with their doubts, legacy and reluctance to embrace disruptive innovations like mobile.
Mobile is a huge trend that is growing fast and here to stay. A powerful platform that offers brands so many opportunities.
That’s why I like to share mobile intel and actionable insights to brands. It helps them to develop a vision and strategy around mobile.
One of the reasons why I had to share this ingographic.
