"Checkins" are poised to become the new currency of mobile location-based marketing, as opt-in, verified incremental store visits are used to gauge the effectiveness of paid promotions. Social media marketing is the hottest new way to reach comsumers, but also needs a way to connect to the real world. Checkins provide this linkage.
Facebook, Google, Yelp, Ulocate, Gowalla, Foursquare, Twitter, and others are all launching location-based checkins so advertisers can track success in social media marketing. "Click-throughs" to websites are no longer enough, as most websites are not optimized for the mobile consumer. Store locators are slow and cumbersome and operate outside of the location-awareness of smartphones. Mobile consumers want to know where they can purchase an item and they want this information pushed to them fast, if they ask for it. Digital is becoming real and the line between point of purchase promotions and online ads is blurring fast.
