- Research shows that 90% of people move between devices to accomplish a goal, so reaching customers on-the-go is more important than ever before!

-Mobile is often under valued due to cross device usage. Google have recently introduced an Elmo report to help understand the value of mobile

- Cross-device measurements gives marketers estimated conversion data to show an advertiser how a conversion occurred over time when someone clicks on an ad on one device, perhaps visits a store or makes a call, but completes a transaction on another device. - You may have heard Chris talking about this during his talk this morning!
