Mobile Marketing
What is mobile marketing?
We call mobile marketing or mobile marketing advertising strategies that focus on smartphones as their main communication channel. This discipline, which began as a mere tributary of digital marketing, has been gaining strength until it has become essential.
Since 2015, mobile phones have been displacing other devices in Internet access. This trend has remained unstoppable over time; Thus, 92% of Spanish Internet users access the Internet through their mobile phone.
Marketing for smartphones allows you to update online marketing, adapting it to new devices. It is a matter of pure survival: strategies that ignore smartphones are doomed to irrelevance.
Perhaps we can think that mobile marketing is limited to achieving a responsive design of web pages and little else. In reality, it is an enormously complex branch that has as many tools as possibilities.
