Are you running marketing for a big offline business spanning many cities and geographies?

Trying to figure out all the hype about the local marketing and how your business can benefit from it? If possible, without the involvement of your slow and lazy IT department?

Well – Splitter has a solution for you! Today we are adding one of our most requested features. We call it the City Split.

You can guess what it does, don’t you? As the name indicates Splitter’s City Split enables you to split your links (or QR codes and NFC tags). Links can be splitted based on a city or region in which they are triggered. So from now you can set up your own geo-targeted campaigns with just a few clicks. Dead simple.

The Industry is Moving Towards Hyper Local Geotargeting

There is a growing interest and demand for geotargeting and mobile marketing is on the rapid rise. Using Splitter to bridge offline to online enables marketers to finally bring geographical targeting in play, outside of the existing local ad buying opportunities.

When is this most useful? Mobile is of course an important enabling technology here. People are walking around with always-connected smart phones, searching the web, clicking on links and scanning your QR codes. If you are able to minimize the steps they have to make to convert, you win.

Marketers around the globe are aware of this and in the recent survey made by Jumptap they’ve pointed out geotargeting as the most often used marketing targeting tactic.

Additionally, Forbes contributor Court Cunningham states that “National brands with multiple locations or franchises will go increasingly local” in their “Local Marketing Trends To Watch In 2013”.
