What is Geo-Fencing – Geo-fencing is basically a location based service which can also be called – Geo-targeting at times which allows you to take some actions based on the geo-graphical area of an SMS subscriber. The technology however, isn’t new but it is recently being popular as the mobile technology is growing day by day. How to make sure you are targeting the right SMS subscriber – The geo-fencing technology allows you to make your own decision whether or not to send a particular SMS should be sent to a particular person based on the geographical area. So the layer of intelligence can circle any area; all you need to decide is where to make the geo-fence. Do the customers get to choose whether or not they want to receive the SMS – Yes they do! Without the customer’s permission, you cannot locate any customer’s phone number or the mobile device. That is the number one rule of the Geo-fencing ads. There are multiple ways through which you can ask for permission – like for example replying to a particular text message which queries about preferred services or if they want to share their location with the brand or not.
How accurate is the SMS subscriber’s location – There are a lot of factors in which the accuracy depends. It can be – whether the SMS subscribers’ wireless carrier supports the use of A-GPS location capabilities, which are extremely accurate in outdoor environments, to less accurate options for mobile phones that use G-CID, Cell ID and Enhanced Cell IDs, which will produce a mobile geo-fence location accuracy ranging from one to five city blocks, or 100 – 5,000 meters. How far the geo-fence can go – The area of geo-fence for the SMS campaign can be as big as the brand wants. The size depends on the SMS campaign requirements.
