Coca Cola’s Secret Weapon for World Domination – Mobile Marketing. Tom Daly feels cheated. The Group Director of Global Connections (see Management Plan ) leads the company’s mobile marketing efforts, which is currently around 4% of marketing spend. “Every day, there are 1.7 billion transactions of our product. With 6 billion SIM cards globally, that represents a lot of people who should be holding a Coke”. Coca Cola is counting on mobile to help realize CEO Muhtar Kent’s 2020 Vision Plan of doubling 2010 revenue to $200 million by 2020. “The fundamental question is whether the phone will be an enabler or barrier toward achieving our business goals. “Our focus is on building content and experiences that only mobile can create.

Il y a ceux qui n'ont pas reçu d'iPhone ou d'iPad à Noël . Et puis il y a les autres, ceux qui ont fébrilement ouvert le paquet attendu sous le regard attendri de leurs parents ou enfants, y trouvant le terminal portable qui leur ouvre la porte d'un nouveau monde connecté où il pourront, d'un mouvement de doigt alerte et délicat... jouer à Angry Birds aux toilettes au travail.

Smartphone and tablet purchases have been on the rise for several years, but 2011 was a turning point: This was the first year that these mobile devices outsold desktop and laptop PCs.

DATA. _lp01chynYW1qbvo7io1_1280.jpg (381×1280) Says Worldwide Mobile Advertising Revenue Forecast to Reach $3.3 Billion in 2011. STAMFORD, Conn., June 16, 2011 View All Press Releases Asia/Pacific to Remain Leading Market Although Revenue in North America and Western Europe Is Strengthening Worldwide mobile advertising revenue is forecast to reach $3.3 billion in 2011, more than double the $1.6 billion generated in 2010, according to Gartner, Inc.

Search and maps will deliver the highest revenue, while video/audio ads will see the fastest growth through 2015. "Mobile advertising is now recognized as an opportunity for brands, advertisers and publishers to engage consumers in a targeted and contextual manner, improving returns," said Stephanie Baghdassarian, research director at Gartner. North America and Western Europe are the regions where mobile advertising budgets will grow most, representing 28 percent and 25 percent of the global market by 2015 (see Table 1).

The app landscape is absolutely dominated by new startups — and big brands are getting left in their dust. Take, for example, Apple’s list of top free iPhone apps from 2010. Education (kudos to NASA, which was the only big brand)Entertainment (kudos to Fandango)Healthcare and fitness (kudos to WebMD)Medical (kudos to WebMD)Photography (kudos to Adobe)Utilities (kudos to AT&T) So why is this a problem?
