SmartTouch® GEO
Designed for Any Business

LOCATION TARGETED AUDIENCE MARKETING

SmartTouch® GEO is a breakthrough geofencing technology combining location-based targeting, tracking, and advertising – all in one. Use GEO for displaying your ads targeting your competitors’ customers, recruiting staff, and targeting events or similar locations.

How Does SmartTouch® GEO Work?

Geofencing may sound like a complex process, but it’s a simple principle – it is location-based marketing for any type of business made easy and most importantly, highly effective. You can get set up with SmartTouch® Geofencing and tracking in three easy steps:

Step 1

Define Target Zones

SmartTouch® GEO allows you to leverage mobile technology to target your customers where they are in real-time, including competitor locations, events, landmarks, and more!

Step 2

Capture Customers
in Target Zones

Our geofencing technology detects the mobile devices of individuals entering your target zones in real time. Their consumer profiles are then added anonymously to your campaign audience.

This is done exclusively using data from consumers who have provided consent.

Step 3

SmartTouch® GEO Delivers Your Ads to Customers

Our technology detects the different devices (tablets, computers, phones, etc.) used by identified consumers and determines the most effective advertising based on their online shopping habits.

With the help of our Artificial Intelligence systems, this information makes it possible to not only optimize your use of different digital ad formats (banners, videos, etc.) but also deliver ads directly to people identified in your target locations.

Unrivaled Accuracy

Traditional location-based marketing solutions, including billboards and signage are often expensive and deliver limited trackable results. SmartTouch® GEO allows you to leverage mobile technology to target, track and connect with customers instantly via ads on their mobile device or social media and drive traffic to your door to sell more with less effort. This provides you with the true ROI of your campaigns and the exact number of visits as a result.
