So let me break down the basics for you. For starters, you basically only have 3 ways that you can impact the boss' bottom line.
It's really that simple.
You've also probably either already been using email marketing in your business, or you've looked into starting it. Email is a great tool to help you stay in touch with customers and tell them what's going on in your business and build a relationship. Basically - it's a great way to help get existing customers back in more often and encourage them to spend more when they come.
The challenge is getting their email from them on the first visit.
When you add in WiFi marketing, you are basically using your WiFi as the incentive to get the customer to part with their email address. You are also able to collect more information about their visit that can assist you with more personalized marketing strategies.
Nearly two-thirds of all US Consumers prefer WiFi to cellular access according to a report from Deloitte. So it's a powerful motivator.
People use their devices all the time and are always looking for ways to keep their data cost down while enjoying higher speeds that only WiFi can provide. They expect to have access that's fast, available, and free, and they don't mind giving their email address to you to access it.
This isn't a new tactic. Companies like Starbucks and McDonald's have been using it for nearly a decade.

One useful tool to assist in this process is case studies published by vendors that show how companies like yours have found results.
Next, you will want to choose a vendor with robust analytics capabilities and schedule a demo.
You will need the data they can provide to be able to really segment and target your audience like we were talking about before. You need more than just a list of emails... you need that extra information that will help you personalize and maximize your ROI. So choose your vendor wisely.
