Afternoon Introduction: Monetising Tablets
The iPad and tablets is business unusual and requires a well-defined model for paying for its content. One should develop
methods and guidelines on how to get consumers to pay for iPad and tablet content from the very beginning at price-sensitive
levels and with clear payment methods beyond iTunes. Although consumers are more likely to pay for content in new forms on tablets, advertising will need to be part of the equation.
Advertisers will want to offer a quality experience for consumers on tablets that will deliver results. The tablets allow for a richer
media experience than anything else so far and can be more interactive but also less intrusive than the web. They can also be more
productive in terms of prompting direct purchases given the quality of the interface and the greater leisure-time use of tablets relative
to computers. But there are several issues that need to be addressed before tablet advertising can fulfill all its potential.
