A recent study commissioned by the Bavarian Regulatory Authority for Commercial Broadcasting (BLM) and carried out by strategy consultant Goldmedia has found that location-based services in Germany are providing a wide variety of offers, have an increasing user base and are also likely to experience high rates of growth. At the end of 2012, there were 181 location-based services (LBS) providers in Germany. That number is expected to increase, with experts predicting that almost every app will incorporate an LBS function in the future. One in four Germans are already using a service of this kind.

Location Based Services: Business ModelEvangelos Tselentis

Location-based social networks allow users to share geo-tagged content and reviews. While these platforms have access to valuable user data, their business models are struggling to become profitable. Opportunities exist to generate revenue by selling anonymized user data or implementing an advertising model that features merchants based on user location, time of day, and other factors. Concluding, these networks should focus on monetizing their unique access to customer behavior data in order to solidify their business prospects.

Location-based marketing uses technologies like Bluetooth, GPS, and iBeacon to reach consumers with personalized messages based on their physical location. This allows targeting consumers with relevant ads and offers at the right place and time. The document discusses opportunities for location-based marketing through outdoor media, events, search and display ads, point-of-sale interactions, and mobile/wearable apps. Examples show how brands can engage consumers by digitizing billboards, activating in-store experiences, targeting local search queries, and developing location-aware mobile apps and services.

Bii location data report 1 22-13Scott A. Smith

Location data from smartphones is transforming the mobile industry. Over 1 billion smartphones have GPS capabilities, providing a trove of location data. This data is powering mobile ads, apps, and services beyond just consumer-facing location apps. Location data is being used to build audiences and profiles rather than just targeting users within geographic fences. It is also enhancing features behind many popular apps and allowing more personalized notifications. While privacy is a concern, the industry is self-regulating and users see benefits to relevant ads. Location data will continue spreading through the mobile ecosystem.

Location based marketing and advertisingManahari Darshika Pemarathna

Location-based marketing uses a mobile device's location to alert users about nearby offers. O2, the second largest mobile network in the UK, began offering large-scale location-based advertising in 2010. The system works by having customers opt-in with their interests and then receiving SMS messages for discounts from nearby matching businesses. Placecast provides the geo-fencing technology that combines a user's location with a map to define boundaries and trigger relevant offers.

As we see the number of connected devices and technologies continue to increase, the phenomena of the once spectatorial culture is now rapidly evolving into a participatory culture. Key drivers such as mobile, social and digital OOH have created a constantly connected consumer who has high expectations and more control over what he/she is willing to listen to, take away and act upon. This has forced a collaboration of OOH with mobile, creating a new communication ecosystem that is revolutionizing how we interact with media while out of home. Here we discuss how mobile technologies such as QR, SMS, AR, Bluetooth and NFC are changing the OOH advertising landscape, allowing brands to engage with consumers on a platform that never leaves their side.

Hot Topics in 2014Posterscope

The expanding Out-of-Home infrastructure now encompasses not only bought and owned media, but also devices such as mobile, laptop and tablet that are all used primarily while out of home. This convergence of media is driven by the evolving consumer landscape, which is why our Hot Topics for 2014 primarily focus on the intersection of where technology meets media on a multi-platform level. As a result of the rapid proliferation of mobile devices and screen options we are seeing a significant increase in location-based marketing, as well as the need for value. The momentum behind environment awareness is adding a layer of context that allows applications to be grounded in utility rather than pure entertainment, providing consumers with a more useful and engaging connection. Our 2014 Hot Topics include a full range of themes including real-time optimization, borrowed formats, smart devices and OOH’s affect on the speed of delivery.

When is an app not an appJason Cross

Native apps are designed to run directly on a device's operating system. They must be downloaded from app stores and updated through new downloads. Web apps run in browsers using HTML5 but can automatically update without downloads. Hybrid apps combine aspects of both - they are downloaded like native apps but can use web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and update content over the air. They can also access device features like cameras through JavaScript.

APIs: The Building Blocks of the FutureBBDO

Two weeks ago we released an infographic showing the life of a normal person as we imagine it in 2025. The kinds of automated services illustrated in that graphic that will appear over the next decade are all enabled by the same piece of technology: the API. What APIs, or Application Programming Interfaces, do is provide programmers with a simple way of connecting their programming into the data and services of an existing program. Any websites that embed Google or Facebook logins are accessing an API provided by Google or Facebook to authenticate users' identities. Similarly, as personal data becomes stored in the cloud, companies with permission to access such data are increasingly plugged in to their consumers' changing status and needs. Beyond just explaining how APIs are driving technological advancements across every industry, our latest Digital Lab Thought Piece provides useful tips for any business on navigating a world based on APIs - whether that means activating the APIs that are already out there, or building one of your own to create new revenue stream or make your services indispensable.

GAFAnomics: Using APIs to gain unfair competitive advantage in the network ec...Fabernovel

At FABERNOVEL, we’re convinced APIs are a powerful lever for traditional companies willing to enter and thrive in a world dominated by the GAFA (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple), Unicorns (Uber, Airbnb…), Chinese giants (Alibaba, Tencent…) and all similar actors that have deeply changed the way goods and services are produced, shared and distributed. As outlined in our latest study, these new players share one common feature: they’re all structured as networks, connecting individuals, businesses, information and goods to one another.
