mobile proximity marketing advantages disadvantages

shared by jbrit055 on 23 Sep 21 - No Cached
  • The mobile market is maturing, with 82% penetration anticipated by 2020 in the US.
  • Beacon technology, which powers proximity marketing, results in an estimated 40 million messages a year, and that number is ever increasing. As a result, the retail industry must be sure it is primed to take full advantage of this technology now and in the coming years.
  • While proximity marketing is ideal for targeting the right audience at the right time, it’s also a complex and emerging marketing style that’s bound to have to work out a few kinks.

  • The Mobile Proximity Marketing Advantages for Retailers
  • The retailer added beacon technology to their stores in advance of Black Friday in 2015 through its Walk In and Win campaign. Macy employees and advertisements notified visitors of the upcoming event, encouraging them to download the store app in order to stay in the loop. Then, to incentivize consumers on Black Friday, users were given the opportunity to win prizes and play games via their mobile devices whenever they entered a Macy’s store.
  • Increased brand awareness:
  • Engaged users:
  • An automated edge:
  • Insights on purchase behaviors:
  • High-performing, innovative third-party retail apps provide proximity marketing that retailers can easily implement while avoiding many logistical concerns. Reputable partner apps have strong systems in place to prevent data breaches and have the experience to know how to interact with consumers without being intrusive.
  • However, there are some challenges to be aware of. As it’s an emerging marketing technique, there are still some challenges to be aware of before you implement the technology in your store.

      The only downside I can see with this type of marketing is that it only works if the person has the app of the store downloaded. If not they will not see the ad whatsoever.
  • The Challenges of Proximity Marketing and its Disadvantages
  • Conversion issues:
  • Excessive opt-ins:
  • Management complexity:
  • Privacy concerns:
  • While proximity marketing is not without its disadvantages, many of these concerns can be resolved by choosing to partner with a trusted third-party mobile app. By capitalizing on the expertise of third-party companies, retailers of all sizes are able to achieve high conversion rates with beacon-based proximity marketing campaigns.
  • Higher conversion rates:
  • With the majority of adults now with a smartphone in hand, it stands to reason that retailers will want—and need—to leverage these devices to gain foot traffic, sales, and new customers.
  • employs geolocation to market to consumers within physical reach of a store
  • proximity marketing could be a valuable resource for increasing market share and brand awareness
  • minimizing expenses and easily gaining the attention of an existing consumer base
  • This is an emerging platform that companies are just beginning to utilize
  • retailers who choose to use it can garner a lot of attention.
  • doesn’t require much effort

  • It is estimated that 57% of consumers are likely to engage with location-based advertising
  • If your target audience is asking for it, it can be assumed that it will be a sure-fire way to gain a bigger following.

  • You can see what drives your consumers to buy, whether it’s discounts, informational videos, or interactive campaigns. This allows you to adjust future strategies accordingly.

  • they don’t use a majority of those apps regularly.
  • The more screens they must approve, the less likely they’ll be to finish the installation process and start to engage with your brand.
  • It requires the right hardware and programming as well as an expert to monitor it.
  • you’re responsible for its safekeeping
  • this data could be highly desirable for cyber criminals. Companies need to be prepared to not only store but also strongly protect this data.
  • Third-party apps strike the right balance between respecting a consumer’s privacy while providing timely marketing.

    There can be many benefits and negatives to introducing new technology into your company. While it can be interesting to see new marketing methods for a company, these results can also be temporary. A company wanting to integrate these new marketing methods into their business will have to identify if their audience would react well with this new form of marketing and make their choices based on those results.

Controlling Telecommunication Costs | CBRE Hotels - 0 views

  • Although telecom accounts for a small percentage of expenses, data during 2015 through 2019 revealed a significant upward trend in telecom related expenditures.  At the same time, the data also revealed a steep decline in revenue generation from charges for phone calls and internet access.
  • To manage costs more efficiently, organizations within the industry are undergoing IT audits and consolidating telecom vendors across portfolios.  At the same time, competitive organizations are recognizing the need to upgrade certain technologies.
  •  The emphasis of connectivity within the hotel industry is unquestionably going to grow in the coming years, ultimately placing headwinds on balance sheets.  Owners and operators across all segments of the industry are tasked with better managing and creating efficiencies with their property portfolios.  Additionally, as portfolios become larger through acquisition across the globe, being able to limit disruption and deploy the best technology becomes even more important.

    Reflecting on the term "disruption", there are likely fewer recent events that come to mind than the COVID 19 pandemic. It ceased life as we know it and forced industries across the globe to adapt, create, and innovate like we haven't seen before. This article discusses how the once taboo term "automation" has had to become the hospitality industries close ally as we progress into post-COVID life. The hospitality industry traditionally being "human-centric" has had to accept innovation in every way due to proximity being a cause for caution in recent times. However, the innovation born of necessity has amounted in fundamental changes in the industry that have disrupted hospitality and tourism as we know it. As disruption holds a negative connotation, in this instance it represents significant and lasting change in the industry that now ironically serves the consumer better than it may ever have. Travel demands are high, and the industry is indeed rising to the challenge.

Nobody likes self-checkout. Here's why it's everywhere - CNN - 0 views

      It is really good to know that customers are not the only ones that experience issues with self-check-outs at the stores. They are machines that need to be maintained every so often. I have had my own experience with self-checkout and can see both sides of the story. In my experience which just so happened to be yesterday I did self-checkout in 2 different places. In one of them a customer tried to get away with theft by hovering the scanner over the item and not really scanning anything. In the other instance I kept getting the error message that did not let me keep scanning until the system reverted back to the scanning page. I get how it can be frustrating but I also see that sometimes it is the quickest option. Now with the pandemic like it says on the article some people prefer the no contact option and rather do the things themselves. This disruptive innovation just shows if there are stores that do not have it, they may fall behind because it has already become normal whether you use it or not. It gives people the choice whether or not they want to use it. Bad thing is that it does show less employees working on the floor because of these machines depending on the store. Now its a competition everywhere to have self check-out. An example I know of is the Disney Stores at Disney Springs and inside the parks. If you have the My Disney Experience app you can do mobile check-out without having to make a line for the register. Less contact with an employee.
  • The machines are expensive to install, often break down and can lead to customers purchasing fewer items.
  • higher losses and more shoplifting
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • 29% of transactions at food retailers were processed through self-checkout, up from 23% the year prior
  • work from paid employees to unpaid customers
  • was designed primarily to lower stores' labor expenses
  • Customers scanned their items and put them on a conveyor belt. An employee at the other end of the belt bagged the groceries. Customers then took them to a central cashier area to pay.
  • 52% of shoppers considered self checkout lanes to be "okay," while 16% said they were "frustrating." Thirty-two percent of shoppers called them "great."
  • required regular maintenance and supervision
  • self-checkout leads to more losses due to error or theft than traditional cashiers.
  • Other customers take advantage of the lax oversight at self checkout aisles and have developed techniques for stealing.
  • Stores have tried to limit losses by tightening self-checkout security features, such as adding weight sensors
  • It may simply be too late for stores to turn their back on self-checkout.

      It really is too late to turn their back on self-checkout. It is already part of the store and those who do not use it will get left behind. Sometimes self-checkout is faster but it can be a bit frustrating due to the error messages it may give you. After all, it is still a machine.
  • Store owners have also seen competitors installing self-checkout and determined they don't want to miss out
  • "It's an arms race. If everyone else is doing it, you look like an idiot if you don't have it,"

  • The delivery of cloud-based technology solutions ‘as a service’ has made it possible to turn IT operations into an operational expense (OpEx), as opposed to a capital expense (CapEx), removing the need for any hefty upfront investments and replacing them with predictable monthly fees.
  • IT managers are realising that these smaller ongoing costs versus cyclic infrastructure builds are the key to bringing more value to the business and changing perceptions of IT.
  • According to a Cloud Technology Partners article, many companies carry up to 5 times the required hardware, networking, and data centre space during steady state business cycles. Most enterprises have hardware utilisation rates significantly below 20% because of the excess capacity required to handle peak demand, as a result spending much more on compute and storage than is required.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • The cloud-based OpEx model can provide significant savings and nearly infinite agility, so it doesn’t make much sense to spend massive amounts of capital on building, maintaining, and operating data centres. This is best left to a managed service provider who does this exclusively.

    Companies should forecast differently when it comes to paying for technology. Instead of using a big chunk of change (Capital expenditure) investing in equipment it only uses just about 20% of the time, it can consider consider alternative, cloud based technology for a monthly fee (Operational Expenditure) This frees up money, time, and resources necessary for creativity and innovation in the company.
