The MMA Global Research Panel facilitates an ongoing dialogue and produces regular reports, available exclusively to MMA members and participating brands and agencies. These reports provide fresh insight, based on questions asked of mobile marketers about their perceptions of the mobile channel, such as which mobile platforms they are using or not, how much they are spending and what results they are seeing.

This is a major improvement over the research currently available today offering marketers:

• An objective forum to ask and answer questions directly with peers
• Global reach to facilitate sharing across regions and business models
• Mobile-enabled survey capability to address marketing challenges on the go
  

"This is the first branded research panel for business decision-makers expressly designed so executives can answer mission-critical questions directly on their mobile handsets," said Peter Johnson, vice president of market intelligence and strategy for the MMA. "It's the first of its kind. This mobile-enabled panel is the latest membership benefit demonstrating MMA's commitment to providing the marketing community with innovative tools for integrating the mobile channel into their overall marketing campaigns."

In addition, consumers benefit from the dissemination of fact-based mobile marketing best practices within the advertising community. The MMA Global Research panel will provide brands, agencies, content providers, operators, entertainment and media companies with the mobile market intelligence that's critical for ensuring the relevance of their integrated campaigns.

Brands and agencies who are interested in learning about mobile marketing as part of this new mobile-enabled research panel may inquire with research@mmaglobal.com.
