THE NEW RULES FOR MOBILE
ADVERTISING
Eric Franchi | September 2013
The Digital Advertising Industry Continues To Wait
For The “Year of Mobile”
Consumers Aren’t Waiting For The Year Of Mobile
Device purchase and usage continues to soar, leading to more media consumption
than ever
Consumption Is Happening Across Many Screens
Leading to a longer “digital day”. PC during the day, smartphone and tablet in the
evening.

But Have Advertising Dollars Matched The Eyeballs?
No. The gap between time spent and advertising spend on mobile is significant.
Why? Have You Noticed A Mobile Banner Lately?
Smaller ads make it hard for brands to stand out, and for publishers to capitalize on
growing mobile traffic levels.
Not To Mention The Fact That It’s Hard To Execute!
