Description

We’ve all heard how the mobile industry has expanded, we know consumers are ready to embrace the medium, we’ve seen hundreds of useful and not-so-useful apps popping up left, right and centre.

But how do we actually practically use mobile to our advantage? How do we set up a successful mobile site? How can we make the most of mobile search? What about apps? Does every brand need one?

With the expenditure on mobile advertising experiencing a 99.2% year on year growth, and a third of consumers now using mobile media every month there’s no question that brands need to be involved with mobile. The medium’s exceptional targeting, immediacy and return on investment has meant that more and more advertisers are taking advantage of the growing world of mobile.

The IAB Mobile forum will give you practical, hands-on advice on how to establish your brand in the mobile environment - how to set up your mobile strategy, how to make the most of the different aspects of it and importantly, how to measure success. If you are a brand considering using mobile, or a brand already involved in mobile advertising who wants to learn how to do it right, don’t miss this event!
