Mobile advertising trends in the United States[edit]

According to the rapid development of wireless network technology and the huge increase of mobile devices, mobile advertising becomes a predominant promotion method in today’s marketing industry (Bauer et al., 2005).[5]  Over past 10 years, mobile phones become an important and indispensable product in people’s daily life. There are 90% of people in America have their own mobile phones, and nearly 35% of American are using smart phones. Therefore, 75% of the United States firms are either doing mobile advertising presently or planning to do it in the future (Kaplan, 2012).[6]

Three conditions of Mobile Advertising[edit]

Kaplan believed that there are three conditions of mobile advertising.[6]

1. Ubiquitous network[edit]

Ubiquitous network implies that consumers can be associated by a combination of diverse network.[7] The switch between diverse networks occurs in a fluent and intangible approach and it is an important factor of ubiquitous network.

2. User need to access the network constantly[edit]

There is no doubt that the longer of connecting time between consumers and mobile devices, the success of mobile marketing will be. Although the penetration rate of mobile phones is high nowadays, the usage hours of mobile devices still rely on the users. Therefore, how to make sure mobile devices operate 24 hours is an issue that need to consider.

3. Use of a personal mobile device[edit]

To make mobile advertising works, the mobile device need to be owned by one person. In other words, the mobile phones cannot share with other people. Each mobile device need to be unique and have its own SIM card.
