Growing mobile subscribers to boost SMS-based marketing
CHERYL M. ARCIBAL, GMANews.TV

Mobile marketing in the Philippines is set to capture a decent amount of advertising as Filipinos remain attached to their cellular phones, industry executives said on Wednesday.

Internet and Mobile Marketing is targeting to corner between two percent and three percent of the industry.

The fastest growing media channel in the Philippines is SMS-based as mobile subscribers rose exponentially to 70 million as of July 2009 from less than one million subscribers in 1996.

The Philippines was one of the first countries to use SMS remittance and SMS credit transfer services. It also remains the SMS capital of the world with over one billion text messages sent each day and revenues from text messaging on par with those from voice services.

The Philippine market has a high mobile penetration rate and strong usage. Mobile marketing in the Philippines will grow faster than Internet marketing in the next 12 to 24 months. Mobile is now essential, rather than experimental.

MarketlinkPH will soon be able to offer profiled, opt-in mobile user database to advertisers - giving you unprecedented targetting accuracy not possible with traditional media. Highly profiled databases are now available to Telemarketers.

We offer solutions for Micro, SME and Large Corporations both local and foreign. Together with our affiliates, we serve clients from Philippines, Germany, Italy, Malaysia, Indonesia, China, Singapore, Canada and US.

We offer short-term and long-term packages and flexible compensation payment arrangements, including zero-risk options. Our services apply whether you are offering a B2B or B2C product or service.
