Mobile Marketer is inviting nominations for the Mobile Marketer Awards, the most prestigious recognition honoring outstanding mobile advertising, marketing and media work in 2013 by brands, retailers, marketers, agencies and publishers.Comprising 10 categories, the Mobile Marketer Awards acknowledge consumer- or business-focused strategic, tactical and creative thinking and execution by marketers using mobile in the multichannel mix. The winners will be announced later this month.
“This year has proved that mobile not only won a seat at the table, but got to move closer to the head table,” said Mickey Alam Khan, editor in chief of Mobile Marketer and Mobile Commerce Daily, New York.
“What won it recognition from the C-suite is mobile’s ability to influence consumer and business decisions at the point where the need arose or was spurred,” he said. “These awards recognize marketers who moved the marketing and sales needle via mobile work that is worthy of emulation.”
This year’s Mobile Marketer of the Year winner will have a tough act to follow. Starbucks was last year’s Mobile Marketer of the year, heading a list of marketers who took a risk with mobile and won.
