We all know that mobile influences much of how, what and when we buy but just to make sure and remove all doubt we've got more proof. Custora, a predictive analytics company for ecommerce marketing teams, released their results from 100 retailers over the Nov-Dec holiday shopping season. Care to wager what it said?
Have you ever noticed how many screens there are around us? Aside from what you are watching this on. Aside from your smartphone, your television set, your second television set, your tablet or your ereader. There are screens everywhere and, until almost right this moment in time, they have been broadcasting TO you but that is about to change in dramatic fashion. Here's why. **The title credit goes to "Signs" by the Five Man Electrical Band**
The car was prominent at CES this year and all of the manufacturers are aggressively going after the captive consumer. Once a cabin owned by radio, the car is now being infiltrated by software, hardware and service companies alike. What does the future look like with a connected phone and a connected car? Here's a glimpse.
CES has always brought with it the promise of the future but quite often what is on display will never become real products. In this quick hit, Chuck details which company impressed him during the pre-conference press demonstrations - one with actual product that may really ship.
Chuck offers his thoughts upon returning from Las Vegas and The International CES Show. Some good, some bad, some completely odd and some things he is looking forward to trying out.
Chuck details his challenge of setting up and using ISIS - the mobile wallet partnership between American Express, Wells Fargo and Chase. Needless to say there are kinks to be worked out - well, not just kinks...Watch on.
Is what a shopper wants different than what retailers are giving them through their mobile applications? The answer is yes. The disconnect is amazing when you look at what is offered versus what is being asked for. Retailers take note, consumers (you and I) are astute, engaged and ready for more than the location of the nearest store.
2013 ended with a mobile commerce flourish between the American Thanksgiving and Boxing Day. Was this the culmination of a number of trends that poked their head up during the rest of the year? We look back at some of the most popular and contentious articles Chuck wrote during the year to see. We also look a little into the future of what to expect in 2014.
The International CES Show is HUGE and often overwhelming. Hear what Chuck is focusing on and some of the companies he is looking forward to seeing when he visits Vegas this year.
IBM Research released their "5 in 5" report in which they predict local shopping will come back in favour over the next 5 years. Does this hold water? Do retailers understand what it is they need to do in order to make this happen? Chuck gives us a little more insight into what this will look like and whether he thinks they can do it.
Mobile is all about context - the where, when and why that will eventually enable its every use. Pricing is, at its root, the same thing - a balance between demand and supply where scarcity and desire are its fuel. What happens when you put the two together? Perhaps prices are manipulated but more good should come of it than evil as value goes beyond the price you'd pay.
Welcome to episode #161. On the show: KLM launches LocalEyes; Borderlands 2 adds in-game QR codes; Capital One partners with Push Point Mobile; Highlight launches 2.0; Mother's Sense does good marketing; Apple files patent for restaurant ordering and reservations; C1 Cafe delivers food through pneumatic tubes. Our resource of the week looks at Twitter's impact on Radio. The Mobile Minute with Chuck Martin focuses on Applebee's move to at-table tablets. The app of the week is Google Location History Browser and the special guest is Lou Mintzer, VP Product Development at HomeSnap.

Mobile web or mobile app? The simple answer is "yes" to both and be done but that is not easy to implement. In fact, when it comes to some of the biggest retailers on the planet (Sears and Staples for example), they are spending more and more time on their mobile web presence this shopping season. Here's why.
Two recent studies show us the change in the shopping patterns for many consumers that carry a smartphone. These studies reveal two very important trends for retailers and what influences the consumer to enter and buy from a business.
Here is another angle on the old "app vs web" debate that has been raging since mobile began. Some new research by Citrix Mobile Analytics helps shine a light on the mobile traffic split between the mobile web and apps for some of the largest digital brands.
We are all walking into businesses with our devices in tow but what exactly do we do with them once we are inside? A recent study by Usablenet answers this - the question is what are you going to do with this information? Lots I hope.
Stats stats and more stats. This time we aggregate the numbers and showcase the places mobile is touching our shopping and purchasing behavious. Incidentaly...that is EVERYWHERE.
The mobile numbers are simply STAGGERING so far this holiday season. When I say staggering, I mean to the point that if you are ignoring mobile, ignoring the influence it has on decision making or ignoring the precision it brings to business, this may just be your last green Christmas...if you know what I mean.
The numbers are starting to come in about the impact that mobile had on two of the busiest shopping days of the year - Black Friday and Cyber Monday - and it was a very very very mobile weekend.
This is absolutely the season of the survey and recent releases by Tapjoy, Experian Marketing Services and MillwardBrown Digital show us when and how we will be using our smartphones during the shopping process this Christmas.
There have been promises of the end of paper since paper was invented it seems and now it is time to shift our attention to the coupon. A small (soon to be bigger) company called SnipSnap has partnered with Valpak - the largest distributor of coupons in North America - to bring their coupons to your mobile device with little to no effort. Is this the end of its printed cousin or will this be just like the paperless office?
Mobile has made it so that many of us shop with intent. This means that all the research has been done, all the toing and froing about the spend has happened, all the buyers regret or remorse has passed and they are ready to buy. Research has shown that we are spending less time in stores because what we are looking for is not available - and there is very little interest in browsing. Now comes some new research that looks at the difference in how we use our PCs vs our smartphone in the shopping lifecycle and what this means to anyone selling to us.
Welcome to episode #158. On the show: Toronto-based Flybits builds context into directions for the City of Ottawa; PropertyShark maps toxic materials in New York City; British Airways marries planes and billboards; Bon-Ton goes all Agent 99 on us with NFC shoes; Placecast works with Aha Radio to bring context to deals; Rehabstudio gives us the storefront of the future. In our Mobile Minute, Chuck Martin gives us the different shopping habits of PC and mobile users; Our resource of the week focuses on the difference between NFC and QR codes; Our app of the week is SilverIMP from Scotland; Our special guest is VistarMedia co-founder Jeremy Ozon.

Do you really like going into stores to shop around Black Friday or Christmas? Well, apparently many of us look more forward to visiting a dentist than subjecting ourselves to this ritual - yet we still do it. Why and for how long? The challenges this poses for retailers during this, their make or break season, are many but fear not, mobile can help.
