72% Mobile Internet Users Engage With Ads. Do These Stats Convey The True P
2009-09-14 14:30:00 Can advertisers expect a better engagement level with their target audience on the mobile phones than the wired internet? Possibly so, if a recent study by InMobi, a mobile advertising network is anything to go by. According to this new report, nearly three-fourth of the mobile internet users in India positively engage with the brands that advertise on the mobile phones! But be forewarned, this report is nowhere close to a scientific study. The advertising network surveyed 205 students from Mumbai IIT School of Management. 57% of the respondents had accessed Internet from their mobile phones. Of this 57%, Â 72.5% agreed to have engaged with the ads in some way or the other. 10% of them had called the advertiser for more info while 17.5% had gone ahead and made a purchase. I cannot digest these numbers for the simple reason that neither are they a diverse sample set nor is the sample set large enough. But it is worth discussing if engagement levels on the mobile phones are in fact b...

Mobile Internet Ad Spend To Boost By 2014 – Majorly From India &
2009-08-26 11:21:00 The way the mobile story in India (and in the rest of the emerging world) is panning out makes for a good case study on how great businesses happen over a period of time, and people of the present generation are lucky to witness the same. The first step in any business is to offer value to users without looking for returns. This is exactly what the network operators provided all through this decade when mobile phones first started taking common place. The biggest names are those that have taken the most subscribers. The revenue per user was poor, but that did not matter as the operators went on customer acquisition by offering ridiculously low prices (Indian call charges are among the lowest in the world) and sometimes even freebies like free SMS and free call to specific phone numbers. We are well en route to the next stage in business – that of making real money. Earlier, WATblog had reported that the mobile VAS is predicted to skyrocket to reach over Rs.16500 crore by 2010....
