Brands and city marketeers are constantly looking for better and more innovative ways to connect with their consumers. Marketing has added online advertising to their traditional in-store communication, radio advertising, TV publicity and billboard advertising.
Their consumers live ever more inside of their smartphones. American consumers check on average their smartphone 50 – 200 times a day and spend on average over 3 hours on their mobile phones. Brands know this and will invest even more into mobile marketing and develop responsive websites, Apps or PWAs notifying consumers about promotions and product innovations. Attracting leads has become a great challenge. Contact us for SEO support.
