LocalSense

LocalSense makes it easy for businesses and brands to connect with consumers and real social influencers to capitalize word of mouth, amplify social sharing, and increase revenues. Consumers are engaged, and have fun discovering local deals and helping their friends save money.

LocalSense is a simple yet powerful social commerce and viral geocentric marketing platform that proves with 100% confidence the ROI of social media advertising and promotions by measuring and quantifying the exact chain of events that lead to a purchase.

Our web-based dashboard gives businesses and brands drag and drop functionality to create and deploy location-based special offers and promotions that consumers discover, unlock, share, and redeem. The dashboard tracks all activity, sharing, sentiment, and transactions at each location.

We help businesses and brands LEAP ahead:

• Learn: What people are saying and where.
• Engage: Create promotions and offers
• Act: Target your offers to your ideal customers
• Prove ROI: We validate and prove it based on real numbers.

LocalSense just started limited private beta testing and will be opening public beta testing in mid-June.
