NEWS FACTS
With more than 45 million smartphone and tablet users nationwide and ABI Research predicting that 6 billion mobile applications will be downloaded this year alone, companies are focusing more than ever on their long-term mobile strategy. From identifying the mobile needs of their target consumers, to selecting the right vendor to help execute a ubiquitous mobile deployment, companies have many difficult choices to make when creating a mobile offering, and must avoid several risky pitfalls during the planning stages. These mobile mistakes can result in the loss of capital, alienation of customers, as well as delays to the development and launch process.
comScore has released a study comparing mobile usage and behaviours in Japan, the US and Europe from its MobiLens service. The report examines multiple dimensions of mobile usage, including content consumption, demographic comparisons and top social networking brands across markets, to provide a comparative look at how consumers interact with mobile media across various geographic markets.
comScore’s cross-market analysis of mobile activities in Japan, the US and Europe reveals significant differences among consumers by geography. Mobile users in Japan are the most connected of the three markets, with more than 75 per cent using connected media (browsed, accessed applications or downloaded content) in June, compared to 43.7 per cent in the US and 38.5 per cent in Europe.
Japanese mobile users also displayed the strongest usage of both applications and browsers, with 59.3 per cent of the entire mobile population accessing their browsers in June, and 42.3 per cent accessing applications. Comparatively, 34 per cent of mobile users in the US, and 25.8 per cent in Europe, used their mobile browsers, with 31.1 per cent in the US and 24.9 per cent in Europe accessing applications.

InMobi's James Lamberti debunked a few mobile myths in his presentation earlier this week
I seem to have spent virtually all of the last two weeks either attending conferences or in briefings with various industry figureheads, all of which has left me with little time to get any of it written up, but it’s all on my To Do list I promise.
One of the most fruitful days was spent at the latest mobileSQUARED Roadshow in London on Wednesday. These events, staged by research firm mobileSQUARED and organised by events firm Camerjam, always have a good vibe to them, and always provide some interesting stats.
There were two presentations that caught my eye this time round, from both extremes of the mobile marketing spectrum. One was from James Lamberti, global head of research and marketing at mobile ad network InMobi. The other was from Donald McLeod, head of marketing services at the University of Hertfordshire in the UK.
He outlined the journey his institution had been on to go mobile. This embraced mobile advertising and campaigns through Blyk to reach out to prospective students, but the main driver for McLeod was data collection. His team were going out to recruitment fairs and getting names and addresses of prospective students, that then had to be rekeyed, with the inevitable data entry errors.
The solution they came up with was an iPhone app that they could take to recruitment fairs, enabling prospective students to fill in their details on the phone. This triggered an email to them, with a link to the University website, where they could complete the registration process.
According to recent data, 25% of EU-5 (UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain) Mobile owners are now browsing the Mobile Internet.
The August 2010 Scorecard for Mobile Advertising Reach and Targeting (S.M.A.R.T.)™ Report includes a spotlight on “Why Mobile is a Must this Holiday Season”. It features highlights from the comScore study we recently commissioned, focused on why mobile is a must for advertisers in the retail space this holiday season. The study found that nearly 30% of mobile subscribers accessing retail content on their phone could not be reached online or in-store. For advertisers, this means there is a NEW Retail audience that can only be reached through mobile.
