Typically, geofencing mobile ads will be used in the form of display or push notifications to consumers with locally relevant messages, Most often, GPS is used to define whether a device has entered the geofence.
GroundTruth’s Blueprints, is a proprietary geofencing marketing software that offers advertisers the ability to more accurately harness the power of offline behavior.

Geomarketing is a form of marketing that uses location data to target advertising and promotions to reach consumers with appropriate messaging in particular places. For example, geomarketing can help ensure that you’re not promoting winter coats in Florida or bikinis in the Colorado mountains.
Proximity Targeting is a geomarketing technique that uses mobile location services to reach consumers in real-time when they are around a store location or point of interest. This is done by defining a radius around a specific location.
If a consumer has opted into location services on their mobile phone and enters within this radius, proximity targeting allows you to trigger an advertisement or message to that consumer in an effort to influence their behavior. For example, if you are a restaurant and you want to target consumers within a 1 mile radius, you could set up proximity targeting around your restaurant so when consumers walk into that radius they will be served an advertisement.
