CHICAGO, IL — (Marketwired) — 07/16/15 — , the market leader in call analytics and automation for the enterprise and agencies, today released a new research that details the explosive growth in calls generated from mobile advertising and why marketers, without call attribution, could be missing out on 49 percent of mobile conversions, leading to inaccurate ROI data and the inability to optimize marketing spend for what–s really driving revenue. With marketing budgets increasingly tied to quantifiable results, the failure to measure all conversions jeopardizes future budgets. In conjunction with today–s announcement, DialogTech launched , a marketing research center formed to educate businesses and agencies on multi-channel marketing trends and best practices.
DialogTech–s first research titled, “The 49% ROI Mistake Marketers Don–t Know They–re Making,” revealed that without call attribution, marketers could be missing out on 49 percent of mobile conversions, creating an ROI blind spot that inhibits their ability to measure what–s really working. This leads to inaccurate ROI data with an inflated cost per lead, and can lead marketers to optimize budget on campaigns that are not driving revenue, while pulling the plug on programs that are. Additionally, they are unable to prove the full effectiveness of programs to their CEOs or clients, significantly underselling their value.
Consumers today live their lives on their smartphones, and marketers are shifting advertising spend to target them. According to , mobile digital advertising spend will surpass desktop spend next year — growing to over 72 percent of digital spend by 2019.
Thanks to smartphones and click-to-call technology, inbound phone calls from mobile channels are skyrocketing. In fact, more than 75 billion calls were driven from mobile channels (search, display, social media and landing pages) in the U.S. in 2014, and are expected to more than double to 162 billion by 2019, according to leading research firm .
Additional key findings include:
Calls from mobile marketing sources are up 34 percent in the past six months alone across DialogTech customers, an increase of 78 percent on an annualized basis.
Mobile search and landing pages are driving a combined 81 percent of calls for DialogTech customers, while mobile display and social drive 19 percent.
Many DialogTech customers in industries that offer considered purchases which require a conversation as part of the sales process (e.g. insurance, healthcare, home services) see conversion rates over 10 percent from phone calls, and others as high as 10x the average.
With this new research, DialogTech Insights analyzed over 400,000 inbound phone calls and over 60 million website sessions across its Voice360 platform, which has over 5,000 active customers across 35 industries.

“Not only is call attribution critical to delivering mobile marketing ROI and driving intelligent investment optimizations, it can also fuel an authentic understanding of the consumer purchase path, allowing marketers to deliver personalized offline experiences customized to consumer expectations, driving higher conversion rates,” said Matt Kelley, SVP consumer journey at Leapfrog, a leading digital marketing agency.
“Today–s mobile-first world has fundamentally shifted the way consumers interact with marketing and engage with businesses,” said Steve Griffiths, SVP of marketing, strategy & analytics at DialogTech. “As marketers shift greater percentages of their budgets to mobile channels, getting closed-loop attribution for both digital conversions and phone calls is critical. Our latest research illustrates marketers who analyze and understand the impact of phone calls in the mobile path to purchase have a significant advantage in developing impactful programs and accelerating customer acquisition.”
