Marketing activities conducted via mobile devices enable advertisers to directly communicate with potential customers in a fast speed and regardless the geographical location. Mobile advertising has been recently referred as one of the best means to cut through the clutter and interact directly with the consumer. Hence, with the trend toward direct, one‐to‐one marketing, more attention is being paid to the use of the mobile channel as a means of effectively advertising to consumers. Indian mobile market is one of the fastest growing markets due to the increase in the number of middle-income consumers, and is forecasted to reach millions of users in the next decade.
