      The following article analyzes the relationship of mobile proximity marketing in the hotel industry and how it is very innovative in shaping different ways to interact with hotel guests and to drive revenues. Many things have changed in the last 10 years in the advertising and marketing industry as mobile devices became more of a pocket computer. Different technologies have been developed to use the full interaction possible with the customers and marketing had to be quick to make its own changes. The inception of proximity marketing allow the companies to be more effective and develop an interactive engagement. By changing the methods of communication, marketing can deliver and offer more information than it could ever be done before. One of the main ideas behind is to entice the customers and offer them exclusivity, giving the guests what they want. In exchange, hotels get to retain more loyal customers and also gain data and statistics that will help the hotel to stay relevant at all times. At the end of the day, the main goal is increasing customer engagement, exclusivity and interaction. So far it has been working just fine.
  • hoteliers can also measure the response of their advertisements, and advertising messages can be tailored based on the hotel or advertising partner's needs in real-time
  • this interactive marketing engagement is the marriage of digital and mobile marketing used to deliver content to guests' mobile devices in a contextually relevant environment
  • The messages are automatically delivered to the guest's cell phone whenever they approach a certain distance (from 3 to 300 feet) of the TV in their room, or any digital signage in the hotel property,
  • Proximity marketing has tremendous revenue-producing potential, allowing hotels to deepen their connection with guests, encourage more loyalty and greatly improve the customer experience:
  • new opportunity for hoteliers to increase revenues by advertising to a captive audience that craves information and interaction
  • it is clear that the future of hotel marketing is ready to evolve
  • offering hotels and advertisers increased customer engagement, interaction and exclusivity. B
  • y adding proximity marketing into the mix, hoteliers can encourage guests to react to an advertisement immediately, create repeat business, and in turn generate larger ROI for hotel advertisers.
  • allows digital signs to 'talk and interact' with nearby mobile devices, providing mobile users with information and incentives at exactly the time they need them
  • Proximity marketing provides a tool to reach guests beyond just traditional advertising campaigns by adding to existing digital signage and television advertising
  • As hoteliers search for new marketing tools to increase interaction with their guests, and advertisers switch budgets from traditional advertising to newer, more interactive "new media",
  • an exclusive offer, rich media, loyalty promotions and incentives and a great deal more.
  • Proximity marketing offers hoteliers capabilities that traditional advertising never could alone, which is why it is such an effective marketing for hoteliers.
  • Two of the fastest-growing marketing channels today are mobile devices

    Discussed are the uses of proximity marketing for the hotel industry. The ability to reach guests while on property and informing them of the services that are available as well offering special pricing and other incentives for returning to the property are all useful tools.

    MUST READ! This is a powerful summary of proximity marketing - and how it applies specifically to hotels. The article is rich in statistical data on how many guests use their cell phones, have a cell phone and what the opportunities are for a hotel to use this data. Interesting stat - 98% of guests turn on their TV within 5 minutes of entering their room. What a captive way to reach out to your guests!

    Proximity marketing allows hoteliers to reach their guest in a more innovative way. When entering a hotel lobby or bar, a push notification can be sent to them advertising the brand. It can also be done in the hotel room via their TV. With an increase in cellphone usage, 91% of Americans will be easily reached electronically.

    Mobile proximity marketing in my opinion will continue more vigorously in the future . This is a captive audience for the hotel to connect with its guests to upsell , inform , drive business to the brand and its affiliates as well as a great tool for guest retention . Undoubtedly , the cell phone has replaced Ipads and computers in the movement for vacation guests for example . A guest would usually not take their laptops to the pool area but will more often than not , take their cell phone. A popup Ad while walking by the boutique or an outlet can stir emotions to visit or purchase that was never planned.

  • anonymous on 27 Aug 20
     
    This article is specifically related to the short-term rental industry (eg: Airbnb) and not to hotels. Property owners are increasingly using technology hardware and software to create a "contactless" experience that will foster a sense of safety and security with their guests but still allow them to personalize the experience. No dramatically new technology cited but interesting to read that property owners are planning to spend more on technology than on additional cleaning measures in terms of their anti-Covid measures.

      I would say that most people watching TV are still on their smart phones. It's clear that if you can advertise to someone's phone it's more effective than TV in this day.

  • Blueprints create geographical boundaries around points of interest and locations.
  • Proximity targeting lets you reach your desired customers in real time in or near locations you have previously geofenced.

      There are 4 major marketing benefits to location based advertising. 1. Location Targeting (target ads to customers within a range of your business or competitor). 2. Data Offerings (marketers can gain deep understanding of customers shopping behaviors). 3. Enhanced Targeting (personalizing ads to the consumer making conversions more likely and improving ROI on ad spends). 4. Cost Per Visit Performance Model (you only pay when the consumer clicks on the ad, visits the store, or hits a certain number of impressions)/

      Four disadvantages of Location Based Marketing. 1. Opt-In Requirements (consumers must give permission for apps to access location data). 2. Non-Smartphone Users (although this is becoming increasing irrelevant consumers without smartphones can't be geotargeted). 3. Inappropriate Targeting (It's important to segment your audience properly to get conversions). 4. Ineffective Location Data (the effectiveness of geolocation marketing relies on accurate location data).
  • 1. Opt-In Requirements
  • 2. Non-Smartphone Users
  • 3. Inappropriate Targeting
  • 4. Ineffective Location Data
  • Location-based marketing is an extremely effective tool for getting the word out about your business. It’s had the most success in boosting in-store traffic and increasing brand awareness. It’s also a relatively cost-effective form of advertising compared with other advertising methods.

      This article covers location-based marketing, explaining that it is when we use location data from a consumers device to display relevant content to them. It also discusses the importance of location0based marketing and why we should be using it, citing that "consumers now spend more time daily on mobile devices than watching TV". We learn that there are many types of location-based marketing but the six key types are IP address marketing, GPS marketing, geofencing marketing, proximity marketing, beacon marketing and blueprints location-based marketing. The article also discusses how to use location-based marketing correctly and the benefits and disadvantages.
  • Opt-In Requirements Place-based advertising only works when users use the location technology on their phones AND give verified apps access to that data. However, many people don’t do this because of privacy concerns. Without their participation, there’s no way to use location targeting with this group of users.

    Opt-In Requirements When learning about location based marketing, I immediately thought about the opt-in requirements that many shoppers would not agree to. Because our phones are sued for everything, allowing such access can pose concern for privacy threats.

  • New, cutting edge technologies are completely revolutionizing the individual experience of event attendees.
  • If event planners want to stay at the forefront of the industry, the need to both understand the changes and be prepared to implement them, as engaging attendees are becoming more and more important when looking to measure the ROI of an event.
  • anonymous on 15 May 21
     
    As technology advances, major shifts are happening within the event industry. Gone are the days of paper and pen registration as RFID chips or tags are issued to attendees for sign in. Event specific apps are loaded right onto the attendees phone enabling them to communicate and be notified of event-related information. Augmented and virtual reality allow attendees to see a product or experience in a whole new way, taking engagement to a whole new level from the pop-up banner stand that used to line trade show booths. All of this technology also allows event organizers to have more access to analytics due to the amount of data that is able to be gathered. As technology grows, so will the engagement of attendees through these new systems.
