Living in Micro-Moments

@ChadHallert@SharonLSperry

#InnovationMindset#NNBS1539

An Even Better Definition

Google’s micro-moments

@ChadHallert@SharonLSperry

#InnovationMindset#NNBS1540

The Moments That Matter

I want to know I want to go I want to do I want to buy

@ChadHallert@SharonLSperry

#InnovationMindset#NNBS1541

I Want To Know MomentsSomeone is exploring or researching, but not yet in purchase mode. They want useful information and maybe even inspiration, not the hard sell

Curiosity can be triggered by anything and satisfied at any time.

Of smartphone users turn to their smartphones to learn more about something they saw in a TV commercial

@ChadHallert@SharonLSperry

#InnovationMindset#NNBS1542

I Want To Go MomentsPeople are looking for a local business or are considering buying a product at a local store. Being there means getting your physical business in their consideration set in that moment

Our digital lives connect us to our physical world.

“Near me” searches have grown 2x in the past year

@ChadHallert@SharonLSperry

#InnovationMindset#NNBS1543

I Want To Do MomentsThese may come before or after the purchase. Either way, these are “how to” moments when people want to help with getting things done or trying something new. Being there with the right content is key.

We seek instruction for just about everything

Searches related to “how to” on YouTube are growing 70% year-over-year

@ChadHallert@SharonLSperry

#InnovationMindset#NNBS1544

I Want To Buy MomentsThese are huge, of course. Someone is ready to make a purchase and may need help deciding what or how to buy. You can’t assume they’ll seek you out; you have to be there with the right information to seal the deal.

Mobile assists in purchases across channels

Of smartphone users consult with their phone while in a store

#InnovationMindset#NNBS1545

A Real Life Example• Flight cancellations leaving 90,000
