For Retail, Leisure and Hospitality brands
Join more2 and Vertical Leap on for a trio of on-demand half hour webinars focused on Driving Footfall.
Whether you are a chain of stores, restaurants, gyms, car dealerships, vets, or any other location based service, your challenge is to bring the right customers to you. Digital channels play a leading role, but traditional media can play a powerful part too. We'll cover both, and we'll look at how to apply your customer data to improve performance.
You are the antidote!
As an antidote to digital overload, people continue to look for real life experiences. Brands with physical locations attract and keep the right customers by playing to their strengths and thinking local.
We'll share the latest best practice for ‘local’ in Paid Search, Organic Search, and local above the line media.
