Advantages of Bluetooth Beacon
Proximity Marketing Solution

Some of the main benefits of beacon proximity marketing solutions are:

Customer Engagement

أكثر من 75 percent of clients have their smartphones installed with an application that avails their shopping experience.

Customer Insight

Beacon proximity marketing enables users to identify their customers as all information is gathered at the end of the day. This can help shop owners to drive into future visits of their customers.

The information gathered by beacons can help store owners to identify their frequent customers who can be hyper-customized with higher discounts as a form of gratitude. This increasingly doubles the number of customers who engage with the store.

Higher Conversion Rate

Naturally, most customers are motivated to buy where their interaction with the facility is customized and recorded. This converts the rate of engagement to buying.

Mass Personalization

Beacon proximity marketing solutions reduce any chance of confusion or miscommunication as every customer's data is personalized and scrutinized digitally.

Challenges of Using Beacons for Proximity Marketing

1. Beacons Do not Operate on their own

Beacon proximity marketing requires customers to have an application installed on their smartphones. This application catches all information emitted by the beacons. A more complex interaction from a customer is needed during the process.

3. Beacons are Cost-Inefficient

For better results, more beacons are required in a facility as beacons do not provide accurate location coverage. This is quite expensive as more money is needed to buy these beacons.

2. Difficult to track movements

Only when a customer has their mobile device with them is when a beacon can track movements. أيضًا, the mobile device must be switched on, their Bluetooth and Wi-Fi options enabled and installed with the application. لذلك, it is much difficult for a beacon to send signals based on a customer’s movement.

4. Security Limitations

Not all customers are comfortable with someone logging in and accessing their information and preferences. It is vital for proximity marketing to be safe and secure. أيضًا, since it is easy to duplicate beacon signals, customers become more vulnerable to spoofing.

How Beacon Proximity Marketing Works?

A retail store will be used to help us better understand how proximity marketing effectively works.

  • أولاً, beacons with on-going offers are erected at the store’s front.
  • The BLE beacons transmit signals which have a combination of characters and numbers in their range.
  • A Bluetooth-enabled mobile device that is within the transmitting range detects any signal released by the BLE beacons.
  • An identification number attached to its relevant signal is sent to the cloud server by the mobile device.
  • The server responds accordingly after checking the action assigned to that particular I.D. number and gives a notification. The action can be about a discount, feedback, or a product launch.
  • Customers then use these notifications to follow a webpage, form, or markdown card that works as a website substitute.
