The mobile era, which began with the mobile phone, including all
mobile devices such as the PDA web phone have brought enormouschanges
to the information age. The speed of developing technology andthe
wide range of applications have made it hard to predict the changesthe
mobile phone will have on us.
Advertising, the pinnacle of mass communication, through traditional
media like newspapers and broadcast and new media like banner ads
and box ad s that come to us through the Internet and new business
styles and targets has made great advances. Internet advertising
is still in its early stages, and the effects are not yet tallied.
Likewise, themobile phone advertisements are a new phenomenon and
its form andeffectiveness is not yet certain. The fundamental differences
between
Internet and mobile advertising are that while Internet advertisements
lure users to a specific reach point and like traditional advertisements,
inform of new products, promotion, and price while mobile phone
advertisements not only expose the viewer to a product, but also
can lead the user through real time interaction to purchase or sell.
Optimistic people predict that by 2003, the mobile market will
overtake lined Internet users. In much the same way the internet
has become an essential part of our life s in such a short period
of time, mobile phones will also become an indispensable tool in
our lives. In the mobile era, through advancements in technology,
advertisements will take on new formats with audio & visual.
How will the new advertisements take form and what new marketing
techniques will the mobile era need?Tackling these question in this
thesis ant the dawn of the mobile era isan important task.
In the mobile market the basic format of advertising takes this
form: the receiver has personal information, such as age, gender,
profession, and can direct it to a specific targeted user in an
interactive format. We can predict new marketing techniques and
development in the mobile market. This thesis has categorized mobile
formats that are in use or being tested up to 2002 May by transmission
and content, with special attention to mobile coupons, which have
the fastest growth among mobile advertisement formats.
In conclusion, I have taken an overview of the mobile advertisements
future and market, caution points in creating mobile advertisements,
and organized future mobile advertisement content.
