Are you reading this from your mobile phone? The odds are very high. According to statistics, 62% of people who are on the internet, do it from mobile devices. Besides, every time the human being becomes more addicted: Approximately one person checks his smartphone about 150 times a day, dedicating about 3 hours a day to the device. This is what mobile marketing is about.

With the growing number of people with access to an intelligent device, mobile marketing is becoming something indispensable to take into consideration if you want to reach the audience and, above all, innovate.

Companies, seeking to deepen the loyalty of their customers, have taken into consideration the data previously mentioned and enhance mobile marketing, as it is very attractive to be overlooked. Consumers hope to participate with brands on their mobile devices. Your company must offer a good experience to the consumer through mobile.

Although not all companies need a mobile application to meet consumer demand, it is good to consider and make the correct adjustments to be able to connect easily and quickly with your customers, because today, people are going to access more information, messages and advertising content of your company through the smartphone.

Mobile marketing as a tool for innovation

We understand the basics of mobile marketing, such as text messages, ads within applications, store, restaurant and even coupon applications, and ads through the mail, but what should not be missed view to understand the full spectrum of new mobile marketing trends?

As in real estate, everything is location, location, location. Currently, those who try to take the lead in mobile marketing are making a strong commitment to geolocation services, in order to have a closer approach to their audience. In other words, they are based on where they are.

Meat Pack case: in the search for conversion

An example of this is Meat Pack, a Guatemalan store whose mobile marketing service sends a message to users who are in a shopping plaza. Through this message, they start a timer with 100% discount in the store, which goes down until they arrive at the place.

The less late a person arrived at the store, the greater the discount obtained. This commitment to localization has the strong support of the rapid conversion of mobile access to local access. With more and more access points such as Wi-Fi hotspots, it is easier to know where the audience you want to reach is, and thus, to offer something more specific.

As if this were not enough, a greater amount of products from day to day are incorporating mobile utilities, from helmets to skis. If, currently, more than 40% of emails are opened on mobile devices, the fact that more teams with these capabilities reach the market will engender the need for mobile marketing to evolve and seek to approach, so that one does not Move without the other. The important thing is to know the needs of the audience and to know the way in which they are communicating, in order to attack them in that way and arrive not only as background noise, but as an authentic complement to the shopping experience.

  • SMS Reaches all mobile users and offers immediacy via text message. The potential for perception of the user and the brand is more limited in SMS, than other mobile channels, but it is still feasible for alerts that are used more frequently to drive discount strategies.
  • Mobile advertising This tool continues to be an important complement to other channels more oriented to participation. Try to avoid relying solely on this channel, as this can potentially create a cycle of constantly paying for a single transaction.

Consumers today are much more digital; the use of the smaller screen for daily activities becomes more familiar and habitual. Google revealed that the number of mobile search queries has exceeded those of desktop computers. Therefore, making proper use of mobile marketing tools, will allow you to reach where your customer is and offer them your product or service at the right time and place.

Color psychology in digital marketing

color psychology in digital marketing

It is a fact that color affects the way people behave. This is why understanding what color psychology is and how it works, is vital for its application in marketing and, even more so, in digital marketing. But, before entering to share strategies to improve your design based on the correct use of colors, let’s understand what is the psychology of color.

The psychology of color follows from behavioral psychology and is a science that analyzes the effects of colors on people and their responses to these stimuli. In other words, the psychology of color, studies how colors affect people’s behavior. This, as you might think, is heavily studied by companies when making marketing and branding decisions.

Tips for applying color psychology to digital marketing

  • The first thing to consider when deciding on colors is that different emotions emanate from each one. According to how we are constructed biologically and based on our cultural associations, colors are related to emotions in a similar way to this:

Blue – peace, security, integrity, peace, trust, intelligence.

Red – love, passion, energy, heat, power, strength.

Yellow – Happiness, joy, brightness, bliss, intellect

Black – protection, elegance, drama, class

White – innocence, purity, freshness, cleanliness, elegance

Purple – royalty, nobility, spirituality, luxury, ambition

Orange – courage, trust, friendliness, success

Green – freshness, novelty, money, earth

  • The second thing to know is that there are contrasting colors and that the contrast is good in terms of visibility. What does this mean? Colors that, in color scale, are in opposite places, tend to have a greater color difference, which makes the elements in this contrast stand out. For example, the call-to-action buttons in blue, will have high visibility and contrast if they are in blue. It is estimated that a person’s hook on an Internet site occurs in the first 90 seconds. If you have contrasting elements, it is much easier for them that, in this short time, you can notice what you want to be noticed.
  • Men and women experience color differently, so consider what audience your product or site is aimed at. This is much more complex than just using soft tones or staying in the classic pink and blue. A clear example of this distinction is that, while men hate brown and consider it a cheap color, they have a greater tolerance for shades of gray. On the other hand, women disdain orange and gray, but they like purple, a color that man can’t tolerate.
  • Consider in which social network you are going to advertise and color your ads based on that. For example, if you want to stand out in networks like Twitter and Facebook, consider advertising in orange, since both are predominantly blue networks and, being orange the direct opposite of blue, you will generate high contrast and a lot of visibility.

There is so much to learn about the psychology of color, but these practical tips are the first step into a comprehensive strategy that takes into consideration the taste and response of your audience. You can always investigate further and, of course, combine these marketing and branding strategies with other forms of optimization.

Optimization | The success of digital campaigns

optimization and digital campaigns

The key to any optimization is found in the analytical tools, data and relevant business information. There are many analytical tools, but finding the one that suits you the best, or how and when to use it, can be difficult.

Optimization and digital campaigns

Visual Analytics: Numbers can be analyzed in different ways and the simplest way is visual or graphic. With these tools, data analysis seeks to be visualized in the most human way possible. It is recommended to use it when we have a large volume of data.

Correlation Analysis: This technique allows us to determine the relationship between two separate variables and how strong their relationship is. It is very practical when we know that there is a relationship between two variables, but we want to measure how strong their union is.

Scenario analysis: Also known as horizon analysis, it is an analytical process that allows you to analyze a series of possible future events, considering certain alternatives. This allows us to make decisions and, above all, to plan the objectives in a strategic way.

Text Analytics: Known as the Analytical Summary, it seeks to summarize large amounts of data, taking relevant information: Notes, achievements, predictions, etc. Landing the operation in a concentrated way is the key.

Feeling Analysis: Also called opinion analysis. The evolution of Digital Marketing focuses on the generation of feelings within the masses; This analysis seeks to subjectively extract the feeling of a content and detail ‘LIKE’ or ‘DON’T LIKE’.

The analysis techniques are as extensive and complicated as you wish. This is one of the main reasons why many entrepreneurs choose to put aside the optimization of a digital project, when the reality is different.

When we properly use the data generated by our actions, we discover a whole new world of possibilities that, objectively, present greater financial income.
