‘Amazon Dash: Monetizing Mobile Moments At Home’ – ‘The Forrester Blog’
The latest article on ‘The Forrester Blog’ is titled “Amazon Dash: Monetizing Mobile Moments At Home”.
Julie Ask says, “Amazon is testing a new device to facilitate making a grocery list and ordering groceries through their AmazonFresh service in markets such as San Francisco and Seattle. (See TechCrunch article.) Consumers can add items to the list through voice or by barcode scan. Two things (for me) make this an interesting experiment to watch.
1) Amazon looks to profit from what we call “a mobile moment,” a concept introduced in our forthcoming book, The Mobile Mind Shift. Or more specifically in this case, an impulse sales moment. As a consumer, I add an item to my grocery list before I forget. I may or may not order that day – it may be tomorrow, but I will buy it. The Dash adds convenenience – it removes friction from my shopping process. The Dash takes advantage of the immediacy of mobile. (See our report on how to create mobile moments)“.
