Foursquare Management


Did you know…

  • There’s a way you can connect directly with your customers?
  • You can learn who’s in your store/restaurant/location at what time and target special offers to them?
  • You can reward customers who frequent your location and for telling others when they do?

How?

It’s called Foursquare and it’s a new service that we are offering through our social media suite of services.

What’s Foursquare?

Foursquare is a popular new social media tool that runs as a smart phone application, letting users “check in” to locations as they visit them.

Users earn badges for select activities, like a “Barista Badge” for checking into 5 or more Starbucks or a “Gym Rat” for going to the gym 5 times in one month, and can become the “mayor” of a venue by checking in there more than anyone else.

Users can see where their friends are and earn points to try to top their friends each week.

Here are some additional resources to get you started on Foursquare:
