@poqstudio

4. 1. 20% of all online traffic comes from
mobile devices.
2. Fashion is the most popular category in
mobile shopping.
3. Nearly half (43%) of all 25-34 year olds
have bought or plan to buy fashion on
their mobile phone
Why mobile apps & websites?
@poqstudio

5. We find that most fashion
consumers are shopping on
iPhone and iPad (90%)
(Although we are developing
Android versions!)
What about Android?
@poqstudio

6. The main advantages of an app
over a mobile website are:
It’s a better experience –smooth and quick to use.
It works offline, so customers can browse without
an internet connection.
You can send push notifcations –just like text
messaging your customers.
Apps vs mobile websites
@poqstudio

7. • Are high-res, beautiful images important to your
brand?
• Do you have or plan to have a strong following on
social media?
• Do you have increasing mobile traffic on your
website?
We find that brands get roughly as many downloads as
they have social media followers, so if online
marketing is important to your brand, an app could be
the way to go.
Would my brand benefit
from an app? @poqstudio

them, but don’t be afraid to experiment

Tatty Devine’s Top Tips @poqstudio

13. • Check your webshop stats to see how much mobile
traffic you’re currently getting
• First step is a mobile website which will work on all
platforms. Then an iPhone/iPad app is a must for
online businesses that want to grow.
• Choose your developer carefully – ask to see their
portfolio to check that they’ve made apps before.
• Don’t be scared – mobile is a great opportunity!
