SUMMARY
Mobile advertising is coming to a phone near you - but simply translating
existing models won't work
The increasing availability of multimedia content is opening a large
opportunity for sophisticated forms of mobile advertising. As content that
already incorporates advertising - like live TV programming - makes its way to
mobile handsets, brands and entertainment content providers are beginning to
see the value of presenting full multimedia ads with programs.
Operators in the U.S. and Western Europe are currently either testing various
forms of advertising with 3G services or are allowing ads to be served on
their portals. A number of multimedia companies will launch advertising in H1
2006 within their multimedia offering. Furthermore, the entry of large online
search engines into the mobile world opens up new advertising opportunities in
the shape of context-based mobile search. What are the best strategies for
success? This report will tell you.
From 2005 when the nascent market garnered $255 million in Europe and the
United States, mobile marketing and advertising in these two geographical
areas will grow to exceed $1 billion in 2009, provided certain elements fall
into place. Issues to be resolved include business models and revenue share,
the type, length and frequency of ads, consumer attitudes and many others.
Operators will have to walk a fine line between maximising the revenue
potential of advertising, while at the same time not risk alienating
subscribers and increasing churn by doing so.

operators, media agencies, software application providers, access providers,
