Net Persuasion.

People have a finite amount of attention to give each day. Increasingly, it’s devoted to screens of Net Attention like mobile apps. In fact, smartphone users across all generations now spend around five hours per day in mobile apps, checking them an average of 88 times daily.

With the growth of attention in smartphones, it presents a unique opportunity for brands. But it also presents a challenge: How can marketers foster persuasive brand experiences—ethically and effectively—in these environments? And what are the risks of getting it wrong?

“It’s even more important now that media, creative and brand are sitting together at the beginning of the process because people are going to apps for very specific reasons.

“The big picture is that as teens spend more time on digital media, they also start to spend less time with their friends face to face, and less time sleeping.
