  12. Emerging insights from early programs • Must create an obvious relationship between offers and locations • Incentives are absolutely needed for brands to recruit them into the programs • Consumers are very positive about the use of their location information, provided there is an exchange of value • Texts have most immediate impact on low-consideration products with many retail outlets - more chances to purchase, triggers impulse buying. • But texts also help to build loyalty and increase awareness of new product intros for higher-consideration products, and serve as reminders • Successful recruitment can happen via dedicated email blasts, in-store signage and promotions, direct SMS and social networking • Geo-fencing and messaging strategies depend on a number of factors, from the purchase consideration cycle for the product to the number of outlets, time of day and traffic patterns
