TheDayGroup.net Responds to General Lack of Mobile Funding

TheDayGroup.net, an internet forecasting and advisory firm, analyzes the lack of funds available for mobile efforts that many marketing specialists struggle with.

2012-12-02

DENVER, CO, December 02, 2012 (Press-News.org) TheDayGroup.net, an internet and technology advisory firm in Greenwich, CT, releases its official commentary on the general lack of marketing funds available for the smart phone platform. As most companies begin to undergo a shift in marketing focus from traditional media and online media to smart phone platforms, many more companies are struggling.

"We' ve done our research," commented a spokesperson for TheDayGroup.net, "and we've found that the mobile marketing departments at many corporations are quite starved. You would think that these companies would have bigger budgets. However, it seems that advertising funds are still being sunk into print and more traditional online advertising forms (banner ads, social media campaigns, etc.). While these online forms of advertisement are still important, the real advertising market is moving to smart phones. Companies that don't get on board now will have a lot of catching up to do."

TheDayGroup.net releases this official statement about the future of mobile advertising, largely drawing off of experience and research information provided by a new Forrester survey. The survey reveals that 86% of Apple iOS device owners are researching products and services on their iPhones, and 69% of users in that group are making purchases with iPhones. Though figures are smaller for Android, BlackBerry, and Windows phone users, an increasing number of mobile phone owners are researching and shopping with their mobile phones.

"If businesses want to effectively tap into this market," commented a spokesperson for TheDayGroup.net, "it's essential that they have mobile-optimized websites and apps. These apps and developments can be expensive on the front-end, forcing many marketing departments to allocate funds elsewhere. Unfortunately, this strategy is a slow suicide. Companies that don' t start developing apps and optimizing their websites for mobile now will either die out or will have to make the change in coming years" a change that will be even more expensive and resource-consuming."

As a technology consulting service, TheDayGroup.net helps companies properly allocate marketing funds, ensuring that platforms of the future receive proper funding, while also feeding traditional advertising forms. "It's important to be forward thinking, but to not completely abandon advertising of the past," said a spokesperson for TheDayGroup.net. "We believe in a healthy balance of advertising and marketing strategies with one foot constantly walking through the door of the future."

TheDayGroup.net welcomes questions and comments about mobile advertising funding and smart phone app development.

Researchers identify a mechanism for the transformation of colon polyps

2012-12-01

The causes underlying the development of certain types of common cancers have not yet been elucidated. In order to better determine the origin and the sequence of events responsible for the onset of colon cancer, the teams led by Thanos Halazonetis and Stylianos Antonarakis, professors at the University of Geneva (UNIGE), Switzerland, have sequenced the DNA of biopsied tissue from colon polyps. The results show that these precancerous lesions have a specific profile called 'mutator', which is associated with an increased frequency of acquisition of certain mutations. The ...

Men and women explore the visual world differently

2012-12-01

Everyone knows that men and women tend to hold different views on certain things. However, new research by scientists from the University of Bristol and published in PLoS ONE indicates that this may literally be the case. Researchers examined where men and women looked while viewing still images from films and pieces of art. They found that while women made fewer eye movements than men, those they did make were longer and to more varied locations. These differences were largest when viewing images of people. With photos of heterosexual couples, both men and women ...

UI researcher predicts more intense North Atlantic tropical storms

2012-12-01

Tropical storms that make their way into the North Atlantic, and possibly strike the East Coast of the United States, likely will become more intense during the rest of this century. That's the prediction of one University of Iowa researcher and his colleague as published in an early online release in the prestigious Journal of Climate, the official publication of the American Meteorological Society. The study is a compilation of results from some of the best available computer models of climate, according to lead author Gabriele Villarini, assistant professor of civil ...

Native Americans and Northern Europeans more closely related than previously thought

2012-12-01

BETHESDA, MD – November 30, 2012 -- Using genetic analyses, scientists have discovered that Northern European populations—including British, Scandinavians, French, and some Eastern Europeans—descend from a mixture of two very different ancestral populations, and one of these populations is related to Native Americans. This discovery helps fill gaps in scientific understanding of both Native American and Northern European ancestry, while providing an explanation for some genetic similarities among what would otherwise seem to be very divergent groups. This research was published ...

Emerging vector-borne diseases create new public health challenges

2012-12-01

West Nile virus, Lyme disease, dengue fever, and plague are examples of "vector-borne zoonotic diseases," caused by pathogens that naturally infect wildlife and are transmitted to humans by vectors such as mosquitoes or ticks. According to Marm Kilpatrick, who studies the ecology of infectious diseases at the University of California, Santa Cruz, a broad range of human activities can affect the spread of zoonotic diseases. In an article in the December 1 issue of the British medical journal Lancet, Kilpatrick and coauthor Sarah Randolph of the University of Oxford describe ...

Ancient microbes survive beneath the icy surface of Antarctic lake

2012-12-01

Researchers funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) describe in a new publication a viable community of bacteria that ekes out a living in a dark, salty and subfreezing environment beneath nearly 20 meters of ice in one of Antarctica's most isolated lakes. The finding could have implications for the discovery of life in other extreme environments, including elsewhere in the solar system. If, as the researchers postulate, the bacteria survive purely from chemical reactions, as opposed to drawing energy from the sun or other sources, "this gives us an entirely ...

Vitamin D tied to women's cognitive performance

2012-12-01

Two new studies appearing in the Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences show that vitamin D may be a vital component for the cognitive health of women as they age. Higher vitamin D dietary intake is associated with a lower risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, according to research conducted by a team led by Cedric Annweiler, MD, PhD, at the Angers University Hospital in France. Similarly, investigators led by Yelena Slinin, MD, MS, at the VA Medical Center in Minneapolis found that low vitamin D levels among older women are associated ...

Geoscientists cite 'critical need' for basic research to unleash promising energy resources

2012-12-01

Developers of renewable energy and shale gas must overcome fundamental geological and environmental challenges if these promising energy sources are to reach their full potential, according to a trio of leading geoscientists. Their findings will be presented on Dec. 4, at 5:15 p.m. (PT), at the fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in San Francisco in Room 102 of Moscone Center West . "There is a critical need for scientists to address basic questions that have hindered the development of emerging energy resources, including geothermal, wind, solar and ...

NASA sees 'hot towers' in intensifying Typhoon Bopha

2012-12-01

Bopha intensified into a typhoon today, Nov. 30, as it continues to affect the islands in Micronesia in the western North Pacific Ocean. NASA's TRMM satellite captured rainfall data of Bopha and noticed "Hot Tower" thunderstorms as it was intensifying from a tropical storm into a typhoon. When NASA and the Japanese Space Agency's Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite passed over Bopha twice on Nov. 29, and the later data showed that the area of heaviest rainfall had expanded and was still south of the center of circulation. The heaviest rainfall was occurring ...

Emerging vector-borne diseases create new public health challenge

2012-12-01

Human activities are advancing the spread of vector-borne, zoonotic diseases such as West Nile virus, Lyme disease and dengue fever, report scientists publishing a series of papers today in the journal The Lancet. Vector-borne zoonotic diseases result from disease-causing agents or pathogens that naturally infect wildlife, and are transmitted to humans by carriers such as mosquitoes and ticks. In short, they're diseases transmitted between animals and humans. Widespread land-use change, globalization of trade and travel, and social upheaval are driving the emergence ...
