Proximity Predicts Intent

Geofencing targets specific audiences based on where they go in the real world. This involves drawing virtual boundaries around key locations like event venues, retail areas, or popular attractions. When individuals with enabled devices enter or have recently been within these perimeters, they can receive relevant messages or offers. This approach ensures that marketing efforts reach people precisely when their physical presence indicates a current interest in certain products, services, or experiences available in Salt Lake City.

This strategy solves the challenge of engaging potential customers at a critical decision-making moment. Businesses can deliver timely promotions to people at an outdoor recreation outfitter, alert visitors near Temple Square to a new offering, or provide information to attendees at a convention. By turning physical movement into an indicator of intent, organizations can shift from broad outreach to targeted engagement. This method creates direct calls to action, connecting businesses with a local audience ready to convert.

Raincross develops geofencing campaigns by identifying locations in Salt Lake City where physical presence genuinely predicts intent. We define virtual boundaries and then build audience segments based on observed real-world behavior within these zones. Campaign performance is measured by tracking subsequent visits to an organization's physical location or website, along with other key metrics. This process optimizes message delivery and refines targeting parameters, ensuring effective engagement with high-intent individuals and driving measurable outcomes.

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.
