Found at 7 Charts on How Smartphones are Affecting Customer Service | Fonolo.
With the end of the year approaching, the predictions are rolling out! Last week, we were treated to two massive slide decks from respected analysts, Mary Meeker and Henry Blodget. Meeker of Kleiner Perkins released the Internet Trends Year End Update report and Blodget of Business Insider released The Future of Digital. With 250 slides combined, these decks covered every angle of the digital and internet economy, but one area that stood out from both was the momentum of the smartphone revolution.
This past year we also saw powerful studies on the direction of the call center (e.g. theAmerican Express Customer Service study which I wrote about here).

My point of view: affecting and altering customer service and business models.

Found at 4 out 5 analysts recommend a marketing technology office | CustomerThink.
Admittedly, the statistical validity of that headline is suspect. As a child of the 80′s, back when people actually watched commercials on our sole screen in the living room, such tag lines were embedded in my psyche and occasionally pop out. (I always wondered why the fifth dentist from those Trident commercials was such a killjoy.) But I digress…

My point of view: do not limit it to marketing. Focus on customer touch point.
