• Mobile Websites
Reach and Acquisition
• Mobile Apps
Loyalty and Engagement
• At minimum, it’s important to have
a mobile website:
• Works cross-platform
• Lower technical investment
• Easier to modify / maintain
• Mobile apps help enable the following:
• Access your product / service offline
• Give your brand a presence on your users’ device
• Leverage push notifications, iBeacons, and other native functionality
MOBILE WEB VS. MOBILE APP
2525
• Responsive websites are more often
becoming the norm in mobile site
design.
• Some business still invest in separated
sites as they are easier to build.
• However, they have key drawbacks:
• Issues w/ sharing on social media
• Feature parity between channels
• More difficult to maintain
• Differences in device screen size
RESPONSIVE VS. SEPARATED PAGES

One of the biggest mistakes a company can
make is to assume that the functionality on the
big screen will work on the little one.
