Ryan Golden is CEO of mobile location-based technology company Moasis Global in San Francisco.
If location is going to have a real impact in mobile advertising, it should be integrated with other technologies to deliver on its promise - a direct brand-to-consumer dialogue. Marketers need to consider the context around location as essential in any truly effective solution.
What makes good native advertising stand out against other ads (or even bad native advertising) is context. That context can refer to timing (event-based advertising), content (pairing native ads against relevant content), or location. And while there may be no shortage of location engines available on the market, there's location... and then there's location.
As location-based targeting evolves in 2014, agencies need to ask more pointed questions of the supply chain about location definitions, the data layer being used, how testing and optimization takes place and how they can learn from the process.
Halloween gives marketers broad license to be creative in their promotions. Since most Halloween festivities are local and visually oriented, mobile can play a key role in engaging ghouls, ghosts and goblins.
