So, here is what makes for successful location-based marketing\u2014and a few things you need to avoid.<\/p>\n<h2>What is Location-based marketing ?<\/h2>\n<p>Definition of\u00a0<em>location-based marketing<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p>Location-based marketing is the process of using a customer\u2019s mobile device location to directly notify or alert them about an offering, promotion or discount related to your business.<\/p>\n<p>The benefits of using location to market usually revolve around <strong>proximity<\/strong>, <strong>relevance<\/strong> and <strong>timing<\/strong>. However, it requires the customer to have opted-in to your communications prior to messages being sent.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>This level of opt-in may be initiated in other forms of promotion, or via mobile apps and email.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Abbreviations:<\/strong>\u00a0LMS, LBM<\/p>\n<h3>Mobile location marketing stats<\/h3>\n<p>Location-based marketing is expected to enjoy a burst of investment for the foreseeable future \u2013 but are brands going to enjoy the benefits?<\/p>\n<p>According to a study from Pinpoint, mobile location marketing is currently used by 83% of media agency professionals and 59% of marketers.<\/p>\n<p>But this field is set to experience a spike in activity in the coming years, with 85% of respondents reporting that they expect their spend to go up in the next three years.<\/p>\n<p>Also Read:<\/p>\n<p class=\"entry-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.virlan.co\/education\/the-ultimate-guide-to-video-marketing\/\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">The Ultimate Guide to Video Marketing<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>What is the Importance of Location-Based Marketing ?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to underestimate the effectiveness of location-based marketing. Around 83% of marketers say they can run more successful campaigns when they use location data.<\/p>\n<p>They benefit in a number of ways. Not only does this technology help marketers to <strong>win business<\/strong>, but it also <strong>improves their customer relationships<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because marketers who use location-based advertising and marketing strategy have a better understanding of what their customers need and can deliver that to get better customer engagement and more response.<\/p>\n<h3>What to avoid in this type of marketing ?<\/h3>\n<p>Those who use any targeting approach know that each strategy has its limits, and location-based marketing is no different. These limits can be both in the quality and quantity of data, as well as regulatory and compliance restraints.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Locations that don\u2019t scale<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The most common challenge to developing a successful location-driven campaign is discovering that the locations won\u2019t scale to create a meaningful audience. This challenge can arise from a variety of issues including choosing a single location without abundant foot traffic to analyze, events that do not last long enough to capture the right audience, or smaller markets with limited data to begin with.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Products or services available everywhere<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Products that are ubiquitous and can be found in a variety of locations don\u2019t benefit from location derived insights. These marketers should use other targeting methods, such as demographics and purchase history, to reach their audience more effectively.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Businesses with sensitive data<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Brands of certain locations, such as healthcare offices, can pose another challenge for location-based campaigns given the sensitive nature of the data. Privacy compliance firms have requirements for membership, which stipulate acceptable business practices and how their member companies must handle opt-in permissions.<\/p>\n<p>Also Read:<\/p>\n<p class=\"entry-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/verified-badge.vedb.me\/top-benefits-of-social-media-marketing-for-every-business\/\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Top Benefits of Social Media Marketing for Every Business<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>What are the Key Types of Location-Based Marketing ?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>There are several types of location-based marketing you can use to reach your audience.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>One of the simplest ways to get started is with\u00a0<b>IP address marketing<\/b>. Every computer or device connected to the Internet has an IP (internet protocol) address. IP address marketing lets you use that location information to target your marketing.<\/li>\n<li>Then there\u2019s\u00a0<b>GPS marketing<\/b>. Practically every modern mobile device uses GPS location technology. This determines location based on distance from a network of global positioning satellites. GPS marketing lets you target promotions based on this location information.<\/li>\n<li>Slightly more complex,\u00a0<b>geofencing marketing<\/b>\u00a0involves setting up a virtual location or radius so that you can\u00a0market to people with in that area.<\/li>\n<li>Related to that,\u00a0<b>proximity marketing<\/b>\u00a0lets you target advertising and marketing campaigns to people who are within range of a geofence you have previously setup.<\/li>\n<li><b>Beacon marketing<\/b>\u00a0or\u00a0<strong>beacon advertising<\/strong>\u00a0allows you to use physical devices called beacons within the premises of a business to target marketing to people who are within range of that beacon.<\/li>\n<li>Finally, there\u2019s\u00a0<b>Blueprints location-based marketing<\/b>. This is one of the most sophisticated forms of geolocation marketing. <strong>Blueprints<\/strong>\u00a0create geographical boundaries around points of interest and locations. When combined with location and behavior data, they allow marketers to fine tune audience targeting for even better results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-754 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.virlan.co\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Location-Based-Marketing-1.jpg\" alt=\"Mobile Targeting in Location based marketing\" width=\"659\" height=\"365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.virlan.co\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Location-Based-Marketing-1.jpg 659w, https:\/\/www.virlan.co\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Location-Based-Marketing-1-300x166.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 659px) 100vw, 659px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Also Read:<\/p>\n<p class=\"entry-title\"><a href=\"http:\/\/instagram-tiktok.com\/tiktok-marketing-an-ultimate-guide-for-beginners-in-2021\/\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">TikTok Marketing : An Ultimate Guide for Beginners in 2021<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Mobile Targeting in Location based marketing<\/h3>\n<p>Mobile targeting occurs when marketers target consumers with ads on their mobile devices. Because consumers typically want to avoid advertising, marketers aim to make their ads context specific, which can be based on time, device, or location.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How it works<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Create segments in your mobile ad platform that define who you want to target and what qualifications to target them by (when they enter a certain area, or are in proximity of your store).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>This allows marketers to target users directly on their devices for a more personalized connection.<\/li>\n<li>Marketers often see greater returns on ad spend using a more targeted approach.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Examples\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Social media ads that target based on location data can help encourage visits to a store, restaurant, or event nearby.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Location-Based Benefits<\/h4>\n<p>Some of the key benefits of location-based marketing include location targeting, data offerings, enhanced targeting and using a cost per visit performance model.<\/p>\n<p>1.\u00a0<strong>Location Targeting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Location targeting can help businesses increase in-store visits because you can use some of the technologies mentioned earlier to target ads to customers when they\u2019re within range of a particular business or competitor.<\/p>\n<p>2.\u00a0<strong>Data Offerings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With <strong>visitation<\/strong>, <strong>audience<\/strong>, and <strong>trade area data<\/strong>, marketers can use ad campaign results to get deep insights into their customers\u2019 shopping behavior. So, this can help flesh out customer personas for even more relevant and effective marketing later on.<\/p>\n<p>3.\u00a0<strong>Enhanced Targeting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This allows you to personalize ads more. Moreover, making conversion more likely and improving return on ad spend.<\/p>\n<p>4<b>.\u00a0<\/b><strong>Cost Per Visit Performance Model<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What if you only paid for results? Using location-based advertising gives marketers new performance models, such as cost per visit (CPV) advertising. That means you only pay when customers make an in-store visit.

Coach also used audience targeting to reach past visitors and those whose behavior suggested they might become customers, driving the rest of the visits.
