Applications can greatly benefit physical establishments that offer products or services (stores, restaurants, gas stations, schools, etc.). By offering an exclusive app, you retain your customer’s loyalty as they are compelled to use it often since they receive several amenities and relevant information through features such as geolocation.
By being able to track the client’s location (with their agreement, of course!), your app can invite them to a restaurant after their shift is over (‘It’s been a while since you last ate with us. Since you’re in the neighborhood, would you like to check our new menu out?’), for example, or send them information about local services that may prove useful when they are on their way (‘Our clients may park free of charge while shopping with us. The parking lot is right around the corner!’).
Another very interesting feature that your business’ app can provide you with is partnering with other establishments and advertising your services when they are a match. Let’s say the parent of a student attending your school walks by a stationery store during the holidays. Your app may send them the following message: ‘You can find every item on the back-to-school supplies list in this stationery. Would you like to stay ahead and shop in advance, so you have everything that your child needs by the time classes return?’. It is worth mentioning that the other way around also works, and you can gain new clients with this combined tactic!
