The Biggest Mobile Commercial Challenges

Mobile

forms a

significant

part of our

traffic

We feel

we need to

address

the issue

quickly

There is

little or no

CAPEX

available for

development

Tough to

define a

business

case for

investment

Any

investment

needs to

deliver

an ROI

How can

I test and

learn in a

cost effective

way

What’s the

best way to

harness the

long term

opportunity

Key Challenge I – Monetising the Mobile Channel

• What is my site looking to achieve? Revenue Uplift? Customer Experience? Engagement? Consumption?

• How do I demonstrate an ROI?

• What do I need to address to achieve the above?

In mobile,

you need to

rethink payment

and provide the

best user

experience M-commerce

is set to

quadruple to 2017

So much to do so little time…

Key Objectives: • Increase traffic • Increase conversion rate • Reduce abandonment • Create a great user

experience

Page 21: Mopowered -  Jim Rudall - Mobile Retail Summit

What’s the best solution?

Mobile users want different things – information or action

Dedicated mCommerce sites load quickly and convert better

Responsive design allow users to access more content blog and other information but are clunky.

For information / content sites

responsive design is a good approach

Page 22: Mopowered -  Jim Rudall - Mobile Retail Summit

Challenge I - Summary

22

• Select a partner with demonstrable mobile experience with live “successful” sites

• Ensure any partner is willing to commit to an ROI based on conversion uplift

• Ensure the cost of support and maintenance is in-line with an on-going ROI – no

nasty surprises!

view, browse, checkout

diverge From Those on PC…”
