The third edition of Mobile Marketing Ecosystem Report 2020 by Mobile Marketing Association India and GroupM has highlighted that 80% of marketers would increase ad spend on influencer marketing next year. While OTT players are estimated to make hefty investments of approximately Rs 2.5 billion for content creation as well as distribution taking video consumption to new high, regional content, voice search and MarTech will play crucial role in the growth of mobile marketing, the report stated.
Key highlights from the report:
Ephemeral Content: Ephemeral content is a rich media format which disappears after a short duration. Due to its temporal nature, ephemeral content forces the creator to be more spontaneous and thus increases the likelihood of the content being authentic.
AI: About 80 % of large corporate giants have adopted some or the other form of machine learning in building new competent systems, complementing their core business.
E-Wallets: Indias local UPI (Unified Payments Interface) platform crossed the 1000 million user mark in October 2019, making it one of the fastest adopted payment gateways in the world, leading to a massive rise in social commerce.
Gaming: There are approximately 250 million mobile gamers in India, spending about 60 minutes every day playing mobile games.
OTT: With more than 30 OTT players and 10 music streaming apps in existence catering to various entertainment and media demands, Indians are prone to consuming content across an array of digital formats and platforms.
Original Content on OTT: OTT players are estimated to make hefty investments of approximately Rs 2.5 billion for content creation as well as distribution.
Influencer Driven Content: Marketers believe that influencer marketing helps them engage with customer in an interactive way and thus 80% of them would increase ad spend next year.
Video: With attention spans of consumers being short, short-format advertising content is key. Currently, India is the sixth largest market in consumption of video ads.
Vernacular: 90% of new internet users over the next five years are expected to prefer regional languages to access the internet.
Voice: 25% of search queries in India are through voice commands. 38% of consumers who have engaged with voice ads find it less interfering as compared to other forms of advertising.
MarTech: CRM to programmatic ad buying, automation and artificial intelligence are making the advertising process more efficient. Nearly 80% of large corporates have adopted machine learning in some form; 30% of new-gen start-ups
Measurement Metrics: The key metrics that matter to business are output metrics, Brand and Sales metric. Very often, advertisers measure input metrics as a way to quantify or metricize their advertising efforts.

With the ecosystem report, our aim is to highlight these trends and opportunities, some of which have already become active in 2019 and will likely form vital elements of mobile marketing campaigns in the coming years. It is our hope that this report acts as a guide for marketers, highlighting the key focus areas, their challenges, and helping them to decipher what they must expect from this ever-changing mobile ecosystem.
Prasanth Kumar, CEO, GroupM South Asia, commented, India will continue to witness an upward trend in the growth of mobile ad spends this year. Cheaper data tariffs, the exponential growth of entertainment on mobiles and a variety of smartphones have led to the emergence of mobile-first consumption users in the country.
India is a diverse and mobile-first country, and this will further boost the growth of mobile advertising compared to digital. The availability of content in regional Indian languages is driving consumption of the mobile internet in India. We have also witnessed the use of e-commerce apps on mobile phones growing in the last few years. With a mix of utilities, mobile is going to be bigger and better in the country. he added.
