By the late 1980s, Gordon Gekko would have his Motorola “Brick.”
But it would take 20 more years before this would happen…
Now, mobile phones are virtually universal.

This mobile revolution is not merely “disruptive.”
It is a tsunami.
So how do we exploit this new tool and not be swept away by it?
Initially, I thought that slapping a URL into my TV ads would allow the audience to find me “on the web.”
Later, we realized that was a hugely expensive mistake. I’ll explain why in a few minutes.
This chart showing the explosive growth in mobile “paid search” expense should be a hint.

Conclusion
.
Mobile Dominates Some may still use the desktop in the den or the land-line in the kitchen; but when ready to take action, most consumers will grab the phone that’s in their pocket or at their side.
URLs work well inside digital media – where a finger pressed to a mobile
screen whisks a prospect from online ad to landing page. Legacy media is
different. There’s no one-touch connection from the ad seen on TV
directly to a website.
The best tool to bridge the gap between legacy media and online commerce is the ubiquitous mobile phone.
By using a URL in their call-to-action, marketers inadvertently drive an untold number of prospects into the welcoming arms of their competition.
Text response eliminates the potential for distraction or diversion which inevitably comes whenever a consumer is asked to type ANYTHING into a mobile web browser.
Ever since stores were invented, marketers have known one simple thing: if a prospect wants to visit
your store, don’t point them in the general direction of a nearby
marketplace. Take them by the hand and lead them directly into
your store – preferably right to the item they seek.
Properly utilized, consumer-initiated texting technology will take your prospects directly to the cash register.
