An Exploratory Study on Consumers’ Opinions on Image Recognition Opt-in Practice
By Alex Wang, Timothy Dowding

Type: Article

Price: $8.50

While customer interaction is important in mobile marketing, the image recognition opt-in practice may transform how consumers shop and how retailers reach customers. Research on cross-media integration and interactive advertising provides the theoretical basis for the image recognition opt-in solution. The current development of mobile marketing is to utilize image recognition opt-ins in advertisements that provide consumers a way to express interest in a product or promotion. Even though studies about image recognition opt-in are limited, studies about interactive advertising and cross-media integration support the concept of using image recognition opt-in to enhance mobile marketing engagement and consumer response, such as attitude toward the ad, brand attitude, and behavioral intention.

By Ramin Vatanparast, Hamed Z. Qadim

Type: Article

Price: $8.50

Globally, the use of the Internet on mobile devices is increasing at a rapid rate. It is interesting to look at the cultural factors that are driving this growth in different regions. A lot of research has been conducted in the areas of mobile telephony and traditional Internet. However, as the increase in mobile Internet use is a recent, developing and global phenomenon, there are many aspects that are not fully understood. Particularly, there have not been any significant multi-national studies on the cultural factors that impact the usage of the Internet on mobile devices. A cross-cultural study on mobile Internet use would provide insights for service providers who plan to develop market services for mobile Internet phones in different regions and cultural contexts. This paper describes a study conducted across five different countries and explores consumers’ intentions to use the mobile Internet in different cultural contexts.
