I noticed the above mHealth ad banner and it dawned on me that perhaps the ability to make such an effective banner is a good test for the market readiness of a mHealth offering?

In my opinion these direct ads really have to KISS (Keep It Simple & Short) as they obviously target parents are busy, distracted and in the market for only absolute requirements. I’m sure this will change in line with the expansion of social media rating/commentary of healthcare services (most Patients will still ask the guy who sells hotdogs in the atrium) but in my experience in 2013 the majority of successful services will be those that can convey their value proposition to carers via a glance at a small online ad.

Here’s how an ad for the Telcare Mobile Connected Blood Glucose monitor might look:
