According to eMarketer Inc., U.S. mobile advertising is expected to approach $1.6 billion by 2013, up from an estimated $416 million this year. For brand advertisers, mobile video provides an effective and efficient means of connecting with on-the-go consumers, as well as having a genuine impact and influence on users. Transpera, together with digital marketing research company InsightExpress, has reported that avid mobile video users represent unduplicated reach to advertisers, reporting that 62% of these mobile video consumers use their mobile phone more than they use a computer to browse the Internet, vs. just 9% of the non-mobile video viewers.
Additionally, Transpera found double-digit lift in key metrics such as purchase intent and brand awareness resulting from brand campaigns utilizing the Transpera Ad Platform.
“We’re thrilled to provide E*TRADE with a practical solution for their mobile video branding and advertising needs,” said Frank Barbieri, CEO and founder of Transpera. “We look forward to seeing their campaign in action, and to E*TRADE’s continued success within the mobile landscape. Welcome aboard.”
