Mobile Marketing: An Opportunity to Gain New Users

Today, the vast majority of internet connections are made from smartphones, which makes internet connection more accessible and opens doors for mobile marketing: a new arm of digital marketing that draws on a series of strategies to promote and position products or services through mobile devices.

Therefore, gaining mobile users is a main objective for many companies. According to AndroidSpain, there are several types of mobile users that can be classified into three categories:

• BASIC: This are the people who believe that cellphones are only used for making and receiving calls and they are indifferent toward other features these may have.
• MEDIAL: Most users fall into this category. They are those who are not experts, yet they use their phones as a GPS, they surf the web and download applications, although they are completely unaware of how the operating system works.
• ADVANCED: They are constantly removing and downloading applications, switching and optimizing their operating systems and making the most of all the features.

More and more generations are going from medial to advanced users, expanding the opportunities for mobile companies and applications and strengthening mobile marketing.

Fun fact: According to a report by the consulting firm The Competitive Intelligence Unit, a total of 115.8 million smartphones were recorded in Mexico at the end of 2020, which represents a 91.6 percent adoption rate on the overall 126 million phone lines that operate in the country.

The numbers are compelling; companies that do not complement their traditional strategies with new digital platforms risk falling behind, but to achieve this, they must develop a strategic plan of gradual actions geared toward specific objectives, with guidance from field experts that ensure a successful transformation; otherwise, resources may go to waste.

Companies like Ongaze, a Mexican company focused on offering martech/adtech solutions and aimed at opening the local market (Mexico and/or Latin America) to foreign companies in order to boost their income, can help in this transition.
