Location Intelligence is all about data that radiates from both places and people. What are best practices in utilizing it in localized brand marketing? We tackled this question in a series of case studies at L25.

Key Takeaways
- Location Intelligence can be used for several aspects of localized brand marketing.
- It can be used to target specific messaging and promotions to the right individuals.
- It can be used to profile audience segments to then be used in marketing campaigns.
- It can be used to track post-impression behavior and foot traffic to attribute effectiveness.
- And all these factors have to comply with privacy best practices – a delicate dance.
- Players like GroundTruth and PlacerAI have built intelligent systems around all the above.
- And they have real-life case studies and success stories to validate their efforts.
- For example, PlacerAI-powered agency TRUth Advertising’s ability to help its client Liberty Tax Service segment its customers, then message them in ways that boosted appointments by 22 percent while spending $2 million less.
- GroundTruth meanwhile utilized its location engine to help Gary’s QuickSteak achieve a 30 percent revenue lift. The key here was multi-platform coverage, reaching audiences in a location-informed way across Mobile, CTV, and Audio.
