Increasingly, customers are expecting to be able to find the products and services they want nearby them through search engines. For example, when a customer searches for a car dealership, they used to type "near me" to receive results in their general location. But increasingly, users are expecting that the simple search of "car dealerships" should automatically provide results of dealerships near them. If you are a business that has a physical location, you must take Geo Moments into consideration to increase your profits. 

The Benefits of a Map for Your Local Store

Because of how customers shop, your business may benefit from creating a mobile app that will facilitate him or her in visiting your physical storefront. A mobile app can allow customers to rapidly find your most nearby store. Even better is when you can generate a map or directions that can allow your customers to travel to your store more easily. Make sure to include an address and phone number. Given the large number of customers using ride-sharing services, they will need an exact address. A simple address can also allow a customer to plug your store into his or her GPS.

Streamlining the Payment Process

Customers are much more likely to purchase a product when it is easy to pay. Otherwise, they may not purchase enough when they discover how little money they have on hand. With a quick barcode scan, you can pay using whichever payment method you have selected as a default. Customers can also order products and have them available for pickup.

Providing Additional Services Through Your App

There is no limit to the type of features you can include in your store-related app. For instance, if your store sells computers and provides backup services, your customer can take the computer home on the day it is purchased, and your customer can receive reminders when he or she must have the computer backed up.

Marketing to Customers

As long as your customers are provided with the right permissions, a mobile device can be an effective way to market local products and services to a customer. The customer is informed about a common product that he or she purchases and is then provided with a nearby store that he or she can travel to in order to pick up the product. By making the process as easy and seamless as possible with Geo Moments, you'll maximize sales.
