One rapidly growing method of marketing for local businesses is geofencing. Geofencing uses smartphone location services via a mobile app to identify when a client is within a specified radius of your business. Allowing you to send out notifications and gain repeat buyers. Imagine being able to send a coupon to customers who are currently within half a mile of your business. The notification reminds them you are in the area and the discount might entice them to drop in.

I’m not convinced of this, however, if one has a physical location then I believe it would work. like McDonalds etc.
