In mobile marketing, local campaigns can drive sales at the store level, but the challenge lies in scaling these benefits at national level.
Brands, retailers, and agencies work together to explore how mobile platforms can help businesses attract local shoppers. The new ecosystem is slowly maturing and requires an understanding of how platforms exchange data between people’s devices, ad networks and exchanges, stores, and data providers.
Session Speakers:
Keith Colbourn, Senior Vice President, Loyalty & Analytics, Safeway
Jeff Fagel, CMO, G/O Digital
Frank Weishaupt, Chief Revenue Officer, Millennial Media
VentureBeat’s upcoming MobileBeat event — July 8 and July 9 in S.F. — features a session where leading brand marketers and digital marketing execs will dive deep on this topic. More specifically, they’ll share their best practices and tips on how retailers can drive greater ROI and meaningful in-store sales by personalizing and localizing digital advertising, mobile, and social media with other marketing channels.
