Bob DeSena, managing director/North America for iO, laid down his manifesto for mobile marketing. He says it's time to declare an end to "technological testosterone" and focus on the 2.6 billion
mobile phones that will be deployed next year as "consumer connection devices."
He encouraged a new attitude shift and a fundamental refocus on the consumer.
"We live in a 3-screen
one-consumer world and it's here to stay."
