Proximity Marketing solutions can be implemented using different technologies such as iBeacon, RFID, NFC, Bluetooth, Mobile Browser, Digital Point of Sale and Wifi Hotspots.

Proximity marketers can send useful and contextually relevant content and information to a mobile device that automatically appears when the person is within a close proximity of a venue, location or product. This enables brands and companies to digitally engage and interact with nearby customers.

The most modern form of Proximity Marketing technology is iBeacon. This works through the use of Beacon hardware and a mobile App. When a bluetooth enabled device comes within a vicinity of a beacon (which is constantly sending information), the mobile phone detects that there is a beacon nearby, and the App receives the beacons data signal and presents the content on the smart device.

Key uses of proximity marketing include
•major retailers encouraging customers in store to enroll in their loyalty programmes

•restaurants engaging with customers sending daily specials menus
