Mobile marketing is exciting! Really! It gets me out of bed in the morning and has done for years simply because of the dramatic effect it can have on businesses regardless of their size.
I started YepMobile with a very simple goal… to bring mobile marketing to ‘the little guys’ – the local businesses that could have a life changing effect from the benefits of mobile marketing.
The mission
While YepMobile now serves companies of all sizes all over the country I make it my mission to ensure we still have time for the ‘little guys’. Without them YepMobile wouldn’t be where it is today, and without helping them myself and the team wouldn’t get the kick that comes from seeing a businesses owners face light up at the results mobile marketing has managed to bring.
I’m a big fan of mobile technologies. Not just SMS marketing, but apps and the hardware itself. The way that we use the internet, connect with our friends and relatives and run our day-to-day lives is changing fundamentally and rapidly. That process in and of itself is fascinating to me… from my own parents now using iPhones, to seeing how ‘being online’ is no longer geeky and that ‘regular joe’ spends time sharing photos and thoughts with friends as if it was a natural daily routine.
Showing up more and more
This is filtering down heavily into the retail market and the way we buy things we need. From weekly shops at Tesco and ASDA where we can use our mobile phone to scan products or build shopping lists sitting on our sofa through to entertainment purchases such as products from Amazon or ebay and digital downloads from music and app stores.
There are very few people you can talk to these days that have not been exposed to or know someone who is making use of these new ways to interact with the world. Our habits our changing and we are finding new ways to do things… and this all hinges around mobile.
I could write plenty more just about my fascination with technology and the growing mobile landscape, but the point of this brief message is to convey my deep set passion for the technologies and the possibilities.
Results, results, results
There is no greater feeling than getting results. Those results coming from things that I am genuinely passionate about is a bonus, and the fact that I have been able to build a company around these core pillars is what keeps me actively engaged and truly dedicated to helping as many individuals and companies as possible to discover the amazing possibilities granted by mobile marketing.
Don’t be scared
If you do nothing else today, talk to us. Our excitement rubs off on others, the results speak for themselves, we don’t bite, only some of us eat marmite and we love to educate. We are not hard sellers because we don’t need to be, the technology sells itself… so contact me or the team now and have a chat, it is likely the best thing you’ll do for you and/or your business in a long time.
At the very least all I ask is that you increase your awareness of mobile marketing. Spot who is using it (especially your competitors), see how they use it, see how it changes your experience or thinking of the company sending you messages or engaging you with a mobile version of a website. Mobile marketing is about adding value to your customers just as much as it is a way to increase your revenues… build a relationship and both of you will get far more from it… so keep your eyes open and see just how much mobile is all around you.
