Activating Location-Based Audiences

Geofencing involves creating virtual boundaries around specific physical locations. This technology allows businesses to deliver messages to individuals who enter, exit, or spend time within these defined areas. The work includes identifying relevant locations, setting up precise digital perimeters, and then monitoring the activity within these zones to understand audience behavior and engagement. This method provides a direct way to reach people when they are most likely receptive to a message.

Businesses in Norfolk can leverage geofencing to address the challenge of reaching audiences with specific, real-world intent. Instead of broad advertising, this approach focuses on those who have demonstrated interest through their physical presence, such as visiting a competitor, attending a local event, or frequenting a shopping area. This precision helps solve the problem of wasted ad spend by ensuring messages are delivered to a more relevant and engaged audience, driving more effective interactions.

Raincross approaches geofencing by first understanding the critical physical touchpoints for a business's target audience. We then implement a strategy that builds location-defined audiences based on these real-world behaviors. Performance is measured through site visits, foot traffic, and other relevant conversions, providing clear insights into the campaign's impact. This disciplined process ensures that the national practice of geofencing is applied effectively to the specific opportunities present in Norfolk.

Awareness was never the problem. The opportunity was proximity: making it effortless to find a nearby location at the exact moment of the decision. Most of those searches happened on a phone with immediate intent, someone wanting hours, directions, or the closest restaurant, not information about the brand.
