Why Should I Be Concerned With Mobile Apps?A view into how and when Consumers and Businesses are using mobile devices:

• Consumers have an array of device choices – tablets, computers, TV, mobile phones• Consumers spend almost 5 hours each day “on-line”, with the majority of that time spent

on a mobile phone (151 Minutes)• Analysts predict that in 2015, 85% of all Internet usage will come from mobile devices• Tablets are growing at a rate of 52% a year, a faster rate of growth than computers had at any time in history• Smartphones are growing at a rate of 4 to 5 times that of TVs and PCs• Mobile isn’t just for Consumers – Business Executives report that:

•14% made a direct business purchase from a mobile site – with 37% of those purchases between $5,000 and $100,000 in value.• 90% used smartphones to research business purchases

• 66% say a mobile site makes them more likely to engage with a vendor• 34% didn’t purchase because of a non-mobile friendly interface / experience• 11% of the purchases researched were in $1 million+• 32% of phone users, 15% of tablet users researched for in excess of 30 minutes

Lessons Learned and StrategiesFocus on the Phone First

• For Retailers, it is not uncommon for customers to be on a mobile device while browsing in a brick and mortar store. This makes smartphones critically important to delivering a streamlined brand and purchase experience. Developing a mobile focused strategy can drive new revenues, build customer engagement, and turn the smartphone into a powerful conversion tool.

Deliver Device Specific Content• Provide a consistent overall brand and engagement experience, tailored to each specific device. Simplification is key – examine what can be removed and resist the urge to add more content and images. The mobile site should not be the desktop site in a smaller size. Focusing on the basic elements will result in more visits, less network issues, a cleaner design that works with a smaller screen, and ultimately more conversions. Best in class brands with mobile specific content and outreach increase the conversion rate from less than 1% to 40%.• Phone conversions are growing at a faster rate than any other devices – 4X fast than tablets, 14X faster than desktops. Mobile-focused design should accelerate these rates.

Lessons Learned and StrategiesNot All Devices are Created Equal

• Research shows that the screen size of a devices determines the rate of conversions. Larger screens elicit a higher rate of conversions.

• However, screen size is not the only determination of conversion rate. It is a combination of screen size and cost of device that determines the conversion rate. Consumers with more expensive Android phones are almost 3 times likely to purchase using their smartphone then consumers with less expensive Android phones. Apple iOS devices convert more customers than Android devices.
