Methodology and Sample
Methodology
• Using our US panel, we contacted 260 respondents, who opted in to take part in a 3 stage diary project, lasting a total of 2 weeks.
• All respondents recruited owned either a Smartphone or Feature phone. The focus of the report was on mobile phone based commerce, excluding tablet based mobile commerce.
• Stage 1: Respondents were pre screened on demographics and mobile commerce behaviour to ensure the sample gathered was relevant and responsive.
• Stage 2: The successful 260 pre screened respondents were tasked using their mobile to check in, over a period of 1 week, whenever they used their mobile phone for commerce. Mobile commerce was described to respondents as: Searching for products or services, Researching products or services, Purchasing/ordering products or services and Checking prices
• Stage 3: All respondents then completed a follow up survey, which covered a range of topics from mobile commerce spend, mobile usage in store, attitudes towards mobile advertising and how they would like mobile commerce to progress in the future.
• Each respondent earned $10 for taking part
Stage 1: Pre Survey
• Screening
Stage 2: Mobile Commerce Diary

Stage 3: Post Follow Up

The Mechanic is Simple
1. Mobile owners click a web link (looks like an app icon), or bookmark once they encounter a brand.
2. They then simply select which brand they have encountered, whilst also giving permission to take their GPS co-ordinates.

Important Factors
Other than digital content, clothing, entertainment and consumer electronic are the top categories for mobile commerce
• For early adopters, a potential glimpse into the future, there is only a slight increase in their usage of digital content usage.
• For other categories, such clothing and entertainment, there is a significant increase in usage. This suggests that this is where the growth in mobile commerce (and therefore mobile advertising) will come from.
