Content Providers Should Think Mobile First to Reach Millennials
Desktop and notebook video viewing is still the norm, but mobile viewing is growing at a fast rate. Content providers need to change their mindset, 乔安妮·韦奇说, senior vice president of business development and programming for MobiTV, and put the mobile viewer first.
"I think that you have to be where people are, and you have to make a product that services the different screens based on what the expectation from that screen is. However, thinking mobile first is wise and becoming wiser," Waage said. "In terms of video the entrenched ecosystem is big screen first. Obviously in our business we do believe in mobile first. We believe that almost everyone over the age of 12 in this country has their own mobile device and they're doing things with those that include not just calling, but also video and games and everything else."
Putting mobile first especially makes sense for companies targeting young adults, who often don't own a television.
"Millennials really are untethered. They are moving to college. They don't have their own TV necessarily so they're watching on computers and tablets. They don't see TV as something that's absolutely necessary," Waage added. "We've been following what Dish is doing and the 与迪斯尼打交道. They're looking at a service that will target these untethered subscribers with a lower rate."
