What are these strange books that showed up on my front porch? OK I may be over exaggerating a bit, but you get the point. Phone books are old news. A lot of us just discard them right away. In Austin and Atlanta only 11% of folks requested a phone book when asked by AT&T.
In the same way technology changed the way we get news, mobile devices have changed the way we retrieve information such as business numbers and addresses. Once upon a time, advertising in the yellow pages was quite effective. It simply isn’t the case any more. We are undergoing a mobile shift. Your customers are on mobile, are you?
A mobile strategy is a great way to transition away from yellow page advertising. Just this year 50% of local Google searches originated from mobile devices! People are searching for your businesses on their mobile devices. Having a website and internet advertising campaign isn’t enough. Mobile users are about speed, convince, and ease of use.
At Thumb Friendly, we specialize in the mobile space. We create killer mobile websites and are a Google Adwords certified partner. We make a customized campaign that targets mobile users and drives them to your mobile site. We provide features like click to call and map that help customers get in touch quickly. Our analytics are top notch. You get detailed reports on the success of your campaign and traffic to your site. You can even see exactly how many calls have originated from your mobile efforts and listen to them via the web. Do you know how effective your current advertising campaign is? Can you tell exactly how many calls have come from your ads? All this is possible with Thumb Friendly!
Stop wasting money in the phone book. The time for mobile is now!

The fact that we’re here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. Leadership means ‘The buck stops here.’ Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America’s debt limit.
- Senator Barack Obama (2006)

Bought a Petzl headlamp to use for hunting and this thing is amazing. You charge it via USB and it has software which allows you to configure different modes with either regulated or unregulated power. Crazy you can configure a flashlight from a computer!
I could watch this over and over… Shaw’s hail mary to Alshon! Go Gamecocks!
Watching a movie on TV and noticed what was supposed to be a California police car was actually SCHP. Looked it up and the movie was filmed in Columbia. I had no idea. Good film so far too. It’s called Death Sentence.
Put an SSD and 16 gigs of ram in my Mac and it screams!
