71% of smartphone users search because of an ad they’ve seen either online or offline.
82% of smartphone users notice mobile ads.
74% of smartphone shoppers make a purchase as a result of using their smartphones to help with shopping.
88% of those who look for local information on their smartphones take action within a day.
