New York, NY (PRWEB) September 07, 2011
It could be a (financial) “disaster” for local media companies if they don’t act now on mobile media opportunities warns Chuck Martin, author of “The Third Screen: Marketing to Customers in a World Gone Mobile.” Chuck Martin will be a keynote speaker at the Borrell Local Mobile Advertising Conference to be held at The Fairmont Chicago Hotel on October 3 & 4. A special Mobile Video Workshop is being held Sunday afternoon, October 2. Registration is still available.
Chuck Martin expressed his views on mobile marketing and local media companies such as newspapers, TV and radio in an advance interview with Borrell Associates EVP, Peter Conti, last week.
“Mobile is moving forward much faster than the Internet did,” said Chuck Martin. He is emphatic that, “Local media companies need to wake up.”
“Many local media companies fell apart at the beginning of the Web… if they don’t wake up to mobile it is going to be exponential in terms of disaster,” charges Martin who is also the CEO of The Mobile Future Institute and Director of the Center of Media Research at MediaPost Communications Inc.
In addition to Chuck Martin, other featured speakers at the conference include Iryna Newman who is the head of mobile marketing for Groupon, John Hilton, Executive Director of Channel Sales for Pandora, Placecast CEO, Alistair Goodman and Hopstop CEO, Joe Meyer. See the complete agenda.
