your communications strategy

Speed of development and why this means
we have to build mobile into our strategies
• Mobile growth:
“When personal computers were invented, adoption occurred 7 times
faster than that of TVs. Adoption of mobile devices is occurring 8 times
more rapidly than even that of the web” (Mary Meeker)
• For Macmillan the effect of this was:
an increase in the mobile traffic from 3% in Sep 2010 to over 45% today
• Already comScore are suggesting that PC this year will cease to be the
focus of web interaction:
“comScore has been preparing for a future scenario where most people
will consume content on the go and PCs would no longer be the centre
of the digital universe. This future is quickly becoming a reality”
