A couple of days ago, I put up a post about the emerging Mobile Marketing Gold Rush. I really think there’s a lot of opportunity here to say the least. In fact, I have not been this excited about a trend since social media marketing although that was just 3 years ago (boy things move fast these days!). Just take a look at the hard numbers in the infographic below and see if you get any revelations.

Over the last 10 years, I derived much of my success, not because I was smarter than anyone else. But rather, I rode several big waves. I rode the “dot com” wave back in 1998. I rode the wellness revolution wave in 2003. I rode “the Secret” wave in 2006. I rode the “social media wave in 2008″. By recognizing these waves ahead of the mass adoption curve, I was able to benefit financially from them with relative ease and little competition.

Now there’s an chance for you to do the same. I encourage you to ride the Mobile Marketing wave.

If that’s too general an advice for you, then try this. These are my top 10 ways you can profit from the Mobile Marketing wave over the next 5 years:

1. Become a mobile marketing consultant
2. Market your business, product or service using mobile marketing strategies
3. Develop mobile marketing phone apps
4. Develop mobile marketing services for companies – code generators, customer acquisition..etc
5. Create a coupon based mobile platform (think Groupon)
6. Sell information products on mobile marketing strategies
7. Create mobile websites/ designs
8. Get a job position that specializes in mobile marketing
9. Create authority sites for long tail mobile marketing keywords – e.g. qr codes. microsoft tags
10. Invest in mobile marketing companies
