OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Jan. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In a world where more people own a mobile device than a toothbrush, learning to effectively connect with customers through mobile technology is crucial for businesses around the globe. "Go Mobile" — a new book co-authored by Jamie Turner, who works at BKV as chief content officer of the 60-Second Marketer website, and HubSpot's Jeanne Hopkins — reveals the critical do's and don'ts of building a mobile marketing strategy that will generate a positive return on investment. 

"In 'Go Mobile,' Jamie Turner predicts mobile devices will have more impact on how customers connect with brands than TV, radio and PC combined. It's clear that mobile is a key piece of the marketing mix for today's companies," said Kelley Haas, chairman, BKV. "Jamie's book presents important questions every marketer needs to ask before launching a mobile campaign, as well as providing a clear road map for getting started." 

"Go Mobile" shares a vast array of tools and tips to launch, run and measure mobile media campaigns. Readers will learn the differences between mobile media platforms (Android, BlackBerry, iPhone, Palm, Windows), techniques for using SMS for business, ways to incorporate 2D and QR codes into their campaigns, and how to develop effective mobile websites and apps. "Go Mobile" can be purchased through most major booksellers. 

In a new promotion for the book, a website provides QR codes with clues for a nationwide scavenger hunt for four iPads hidden with copies of the book around the country. Visit http://www.GoMobileBook.com to find QR codes with clues, which will be posted daily until all four iPads are found.
