This is likely due to the larger screen size and better viewing capability of a tablet. Another startling result of the research was that consumers were less likely to make a purchase through their smartphones, such as an iPhone, or tablets because most websites are not optimised for payment processing through a phone. Companies with brick and mortar stores also noticed an increase in offline sales with geographically targeted mobile ads. Continue reading

Surprisingly, this is a measure that many large and established brands are yet to adopt. Below is an outline of what some of these differences are, what they mean for marketing and how they can be approached. Continue reading
