Based on the latest trends in consumer behavior on mobiles, we introduce ways that marketers can use Smartphone popularity to reach people with tactics like mobile apps, mobile web, social media, search, text messaging (SMS/MMS/RMM), mobile advertising, location-based services, retail programs and more.
