Coming up…
Another “next big thing”!
Location is powerful because it adds a layer of relevance.
Location services in the real world...
Breakfast.Courtesy...
Marketers!
How about dropping virtual product into the
real world?
Success!

Locate a shop with the same item at a cheaper price…
Communications and experiences that activate on location – even if that location isn’t your establishment.
(Wine at a restaurant, buying wine at Macro,
