- While it’s always important to have a first mover advantage in marketing, we found at least 3 marketers who aren’t focused on mobile marketing. CLICK
- who aren’t focused on mobile marketing today. CLICK Rest assured you’re ahead of the these guys. In fact, you don’t need to worry at all, there’s really no need to rush into mobile marketing, it’s not as if your competition is bearing down on you if you CLICK
- hot on your heals. You probably have a few weeks before all your competitors build a mobile site, CLICK so no need to jump in today. And if you’re concerned that you’re customers are moving quickly to mobile, 17505781
- you probably don’t need to worry about that either, (CLICK) there are only 83m Americans using smartphones, there are plenty of others who are perfectly happy with their feature phones…. Ok kidding aside, so now that I’ve taken the pressure off, I’ll tell you briefly about Bluetrain Mobile.
- 1832 Samuel Morse1864: when telegraph lines were used to send investment offers to wealthy Americans
- The railroad. Railroads were the perfect partner for telegraph lines, they provided ready conduits through cities and towns across the United States and it was along these train tracks that this transformative new technology thrived. Inspired by the historical relationship between trains and technologies, we decided to call our company…
- With 83 million Americans now using smartphones, the mobile channel is huge, and it cannot be ignored. Last year mobile search was up 500%, mobile campaigns have better response rates at a lower cost and you’re competing with fewer advertisers. It’s clear that your advertising plans much include mobile, but how do take your regular online campaigns and create mobile landing pages?

It’s clear that your advertising plans much include mobile, but how do take your regular online campaigns and create mobile landing pages?
- You might think this is relatively, simple, you have a regular online campaign, and you just need to make a smaller version that fits on a mobile phone? Seems pretty simple doesn’t it? Well, as it turns out, it isn’t that simple -- you can’t just take your existing campaign, content, and images, and shrink them to make a smaller version. Allow me to illustrate my point with a better analogy.
- Here is an original 1967 Shelby GT500. This car has the brand attributes of sporty and cool, and the functional attributes of high performance and fast. If I wanted to make a smaller version of this car that weighed less than 30 lbs and only 3 feet long, I might think of this…
- A pedal car! it’s under 30 lbs and it’s only about 3 feet long BUT, it no longer meets the brand and functional requirements. If I tried to drive this to work across Cambridge, it would take me hours and I’d look ridiculous! You can’t just shrink what you have and expect it to work. Let me show you a better way to meet our requirements in a more compact way
- A modern lightweight bicycle. This is actually useful at under 30 lbs and only 3 feet in length. I have recreated the brand attributes of sporty and cool, and the functional attributes of high performance and fast.
- So what does all this mean. If you’re trying to take a regular online campaign and make it work on mobile, you can’t just shrink it. You’re going to have to completely rethink its design functionality.
- Will it work on both iPhone and Android platforms? What about the new Nokia and Microsoft partnership? How fast will it load on a mobile device? You need a platform that enables you to quickly and easily build mobile campaigns that are optimized for mobile – and you need all the technical challenges solved for you. That’s exactly what we do at BlueTrain Mobile.
- Here is an example to illustrate my point. On the left a regular screen shot of a page that isn’t optimized for mobile and on the right, a mobile optimized landing page. The text is legible and there are clear calls to action.
- We offer mobile solutions that are tailored to you.If you’re a small business marketer, we offer a self-service product that enables you to build your own website If you’re a professional marketer in a medium sizedbusiness, we offer two options, either build it yourself or we can build it for you with an expert team of partner agencies and designers.
