Modern marketing is fundamentally about data activation to drive growth. For a small size retailer obtaining accurate consumer data is a costly affair and almost exclusive for large retailers who can develop their own applications.

Retailers dependence on mobile and digital has increased pressures on the advertising industry to be more creative in order to capture the short glance people offer most digital advertisements. The most popular digital ad channels have become saturated with advertisers trying to catch the eye of their audience. Moreover Advertising campaigns whether in-app ads or banner ads seem to be indistinguishable and most people have “adapted” to glance over them without noting the intended message of the ad.

Main competition: Google Maps “Explore nearby” and Google “Shopping”
Cons:
Generic pics in ads No creativity and No customization of ads All ads look the same.
