The Internet is the Most Powerful & Cost Effective Marketing Tool available!

There are more than 272 million Internet users in North America – there are only 126 million households or about 2.2 identifiable users per household.

In rural and small town Missouri more than 80% of households have Internet Service with more than 62% having access to High Speed Internet Service.

However, most local businesses are not using the Internet effectively, if at all, to access this extensive marketplace!!

In the past businesses used the internet to reach a national audience, but that is now changing. Local Marketing with the Internet is a rapidly growing trend.

How IP Geolocation Can Turn Your Local Marketing On Date: 9/28/2011 Presented by: American Marketing AssociationSpeakers: Miten Sampat, Vice President of Product Strategy, Quova Steven Cook, Chief Marketing Officer, Co-CEO, i.e. healthcare Alli Libb, Moderator, American Marketing Association It's a proven fact that located messages perform better overall but there is a discrepancy when it comes to online ads. Currently, online CPMs are far below their offline counterparts (TV, radio, direct mail) and this correlates to the fact that half of all advertising is bought at the local level but there is no scalable way to reach consumers locally online. For brands, targeting consumers locally is an essential and effective part of marketing as 80% of consumers' disposable income is spent on businesses within 10 miles of their homes.

Advertising networks and online properties are boosting efforts to engage in increasingly local campaigns as clients are requesting geographically targeted ads. IP intelligence provides the ability for super-niche targeting, allowing brands to create/provide the most relevant and engaging ads as it provides unique information about web browsers. This increases marketers' ability to reach their customers by targeting both business type, and consumer location. IP intelligence provides geographic, demographic and business information so that brands can effectively reach customers online the way direct mail and billboard ads are used to work offline.
