Abstract

This work bridges theory and practice on mobile promotions and proposes a research agenda. We do so by first defining mobile promotions and distinguishing them from mobile advertising. We then develop a framework for various stakeholders in the mobile promotions ecosystem. Finally, we advance research questions concerning each stakeholder and view these questions through the lens of several overarching themes that surround mobile promotions, such as the privacy-value tradeoff, return on investment, spatio-temporal targeting, inter-media substitution, and channel and consumer power.
