As more consumers switch to smart phones, emerging channels are gaining importance in a marketing space that SEO has dominated. For years, brands have used SEO strategy to market their products, but it has become harder to find as an increasing number of search results are returning unrelated content. Also, according to one entrepreneur, in 2013 organic search results made up only 13 percent of screen space. The rest of the screen was dominated by "ads and jun" Problems with SEO-lead strategy are only magnified as more consumers view content on mobile devices. For instance, vertical and native search on mobile is continually threatening traditional search. Google’s traditional search traffic had declined 3 percent by the end of 2012.

Are you reading this on your mobile device? The probability is likely, considering there are currently 6 billion (and growing!) active mobile devices in the world, and companies continue to tailor their marketing to the small screen of your iPhone. Via Brian Yanish - MarketingHits.com

Great mobile / social Tips Scooped by Brian Yanish (@MarketingHits) including: * Resize your Facebook posts No bigger than 620 x 320 * Choose Facebook Ads wisely * Make it visual * Turn up the content * Get smart about couponing * Take advantage of Twitter * Upload to Instagram * Utilize Email Marketing My favorite is getting smart about couponing as that tip can make a real difference to your bottom line especially at this time of year. Be careful not to have "battling coupons" where one deal wipes out another an check coupon websites like Retail Me Not to make sure they are up to date and don't have old coupon codes that don't work anymore since there is nothing more frustrating than trying to get a deal that is dead.

The first phase of the trend towards mobile is in full swing, and it is time to adapt your marketing strategies for it. Resizing facebook ads, making it more visual and so on are the obvious things to think about, but there is also a second revoultion wrapped in the first: The move to (mobile) content marketing.
To oversimplify: Consumers watch big screens, but they touch small ones!
So the marketing communications you put on consumers' phone screens needs to be much more content oriented, something your consumers will voluntarily seek out. Being a service star in getting consumers the right coupon is a first thing to do, but also add levels of engagement and play. Coke did a great example during the London Olympic Games (on Marketing in Motion, use the Find buttom) for which they created a music DJ/mixing app that allowed consumers to build their own soundtrack to the games and send it to their friends.

It’s obvious that we as consumers have taken a liking to our smartphones. It’s our on demand connection to anything we could possibly need when it comes to information. Which means, as a business owner, we need to pay attention to how our customers engage with our content and us. How. Where. When. What Device. …

Big Data has been a theme for 2013, and it poses the threatening question of how one can possibly interpret all the data that is available to take in. As consumers of data, we’re constantly deciding whether to “bookmark” a particularly interesting file, or make an entry in Evernote to come back to read it later. There is so much data being generated every single minute on the Internet that it becomes increasingly time-consuming to make decisions such as: Should I read it now? Should I make a note of it in my Moleskin notepad? Should I email the link to myself? In short, we spend more time sorting through, curating and organizing data that already exists. In doing so, we create more data about data! Via Brian Yanish - MarketingHits.com, John van den Brink

If we are smack in the middle of a digital marketing revolution one of the most important wheels keeping that revolution turning faster and faster is VISUAL marketing. Friends @Scoopit call this "lean content", content that conveys complexity quickly, simply with visualization.

Agree with this infographic, but noticed a dangerous trend at Triangle Startup Factory's Fall Showcase. Some entrepreneurs go Mobile Only. Mobile only is only a good idea if you've figured out a distribution system that will never need Google. If you find that please call and let me invest in it too :). M
