Commuter trains and busses are where smartphones run hot. This is where long waits for web pages to load are particularly annoying.

Why you lose sales leads if you don’t have a landing page
7.06.18 | 0 Comments | Author: Rolf Preuß
I have showed you before how to make advertising campaigns more successful by using dedicated landing pages. But the subject won’t let me go.

The advertising agency dieleutefürkommunikation AG investigated this and published their results in a new marketing study.
