Immediacy

We now have the ability to know when someone arrives or departs:

Don’t make people search for their location, find it for them

Simplicity

If you’re developing cross-channel marketing campaigns, make sure people can actually use them across channels:

Mobile ads should point to mobile web sitesEmail should be readable on mobile devicesPresent content to the user that’s applicable to their current environment:

Make it Usable

Context

Relevancy is huge with mobileGive users what they’re asking for:

When they’re not asking for things, be smart
