Do brands want better targeting than most mobile ad networks offer?
Submitted by Editors Desk on 3 August, 2009 - 07:33.
30 billion mobile advertisements – that’s how many mobile ads RingRing Media believes are delivered globally to mobiles each month, in terms of unique page impressions. That’s an estimate, of course, but as the biggest global purchaser [any arguments about this?] of mobile media at US$750,000 per month and rising, RingRing is going to have a better idea than anyone else.

Why recession is a great time to invest in mobile
Submitted by Editors Desk on 27 July, 2009 - 07:00.
With doom and gloom in abundance, the knee-jerk reaction for companies is to trim all marketing budgets, mobile included. Don’t. If consumers are changing their purchasing habits, surely this is the most important time to be talking to them (before your competitors do)? So why not choose mobile: the most cost-effective and targeted of channels.
