Noise, creepiness or value? An overview of 5 mobile channels.

Noise I came across an interesting question in Quora: "Next things in mobile marketing," which warranted my response. I mentioned that the obvious issue with mobile marketing seems to be consumer resistance -- our need to weed out noise and privacy concerns.

As marketers, we have a multitude of available mobile channels to reach out to our current and potential customers: email, social media, ads, SMS, geo-fencing ads, push notifications.

When you look at successful guerrilla marketing examples, you see extensive use of humor, lots of visuals, plays on “humanisms” and pop culture references.

The idea is to play on human responses and emotions rather than present a sale, product release, or pitch. While guerrilla marketing is a little risky, it tends to be less expensive than traditional advertising, and also far more rewarding.
