Earlier this week Google launched the “
Mobile Playbook,” a manifesto of sorts that seeks to explain mobile and why it’s now critical for all marketers to embrace the channel in earnest. Designed to be succinct but comprehensive the document is full of data, anecdotes and case studies that illustrate why it’s so important to have a mobile strategy, website and/or app.
Subtitled “The Busy Executive’s Guide to Winning with Mobile,” the document aims to accelerate the embrace of mobile marketing adoption and optimization among companies that have thus far been slow on the uptake.
In addition, yesterday Google released what it considers the “key takeaways” from the Mobile Playbook. Verbatim here they are from the Google Mobile Ads Blog:
Define your value proposition by determining what your consumer wants to do with your business in mobile. Benchmark against others in your industry for ideas.
Build a mobile website. Once you have a mobile website, check the stats and optimize based on consumer usage.
Build an app for a subset of your audience after your mobile site strategy is in place. Don’t forget to promote your app.
