LocalSocial : In Store Engagement Platform

LocalSocial is a proximity platform that makes it easy to add in-store engagement features to Retailer's mobile apps and services. Using in-store beacons (like Apple iBeacons) powered by Low Energy Bluetooth, it makes it easy for Retailers to offer Loyalty Points for Walk-ins, trigger offers and specials just for being in-store, and create apps that can be smart about where the customer is located. LocalSocial provides Retailers with greater insight about their store visitors, deepens engagement with customers, and helps drive the customer conversation.
