It’s not ironic that we’re sharing this infographic on the day that we visited the headquarters of Bluebridge, a digital mobile application platform. We had a very robust mobile application, but the company pivoted away from mobile, and now we’re stuck with a broken mobile application.
We know that we’re losing some engagement by not pushing our content to the platform. We’ve been looking forward to getting a new version up, and Bluebridge has a very nice suite of tools. They’re doing an incredible job and growing rapidly.
The rapid rise of smartphone and tablet adoption has affected almost every aspect of digital marketing. The impact ranges from the most recent ‘Mobile-friendly’ algorithm changes to Google’s smartphone search results through to the lower conversion rates on smartphones, use of social media on mobile and ensuring that our emails are mobile-friendly.
