back to basics: what is geofencing?
Geofencing is an innovative way to engage consumers based on hyper-local targeting. Geofencing is drawing virtual boundaries, or fences, around certain areas such as buildings and locations. Once a user with a location-enabled device enters the virtual boundary, they can be targeted with branded messaging.
how does geofencing work?
First, a virtual boundary must be established. Selecting the right targets is crucial to the success of a campaign. Depending on the intent, you may choose to target local competitors, nearby shopping, or restaurants in which your target audience frequent or even places of work for professions that fit your target demographic.
When users walk into a geofenced area with their location-enabled device, they are added to a user pool that is eligible to receive advertising. For advertisers, this means the user is now targeted for receiving ads on their mobile apps and websites.
Geofencing can also provide reporting on how many impressions, clicks, or leasing office walk-ins came from each geofence, which is valuable for making decisions about your advertising strategy. Geofences can be updated based on optimized performance and your property’s latest needs.
Conversion zones can be set up to track actual walk-ins or foot traffic influenced by your ads. This will let you know if a user interacts with your ad and then visits a leasing office or specified location within 30 days. For more information on conversion zones, click here.
