Systems and methods for obtaining and using targeted insights within a digital content and information sharing system
A system for obtaining insight information for a plurality of client applications and a plurality of mobile users, comprises a content management system module configured to distribute a plurality of types of content to the plurality of mobile users, wherein at least one of the content and types of content differs for each of the plurality of client applications; an insights module configured to allow a client associated with a specific client application to define one or more locations and select a target vertical, select an insights algorithm based in the target vertical, identify the status of the plurality of users relative to the defined locations, and cause the content management system module to distribute certain types of content to the plurality of users based on the status; and a data warehouse configured to store the status information for each of the plurality of client applications and associated users.
1. A system for obtaining insight information for a plurality of client applications and a plurality of mobile users, comprising:
a processor;
a memory communicatively couple with the processor, the memory configured to store instructions, the instruction configured to cause the processor to:
distribute a plurality of types of content to the plurality of mobile users via any of the plurality of client applications included on the user's mobile device;
allow a client associated with a specific client application to select one or more locations, categorize each of the selected one or more locations, and select a target vertical for each selected location;
automatically select an insights algorithm for each selected location, the insights algorithm configured to obtain event based information through the associated client application whenever one of the plurality of users is within a radius, as defined by the insights algorithm, of one of the selected locations, wherein the insights algorithm is selected based on the selected location, the categorization of the selected location, and the target vertical for the selected location;
obtain the event based information for the plurality of users as dictated by any selected insights algorithm; and
a data warehouse configured to store the event based information for each of the associated users;
wherein the target verticals include at least one of the following: hospitality, convenience stores, general retail, restaurants, and gaming and casinos;
wherein the categorized locations include a client location, a competitor location, a sponsor location, or a partner location.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the types of content include at least one of the following: advertisements, brands, events, information, galleries, news, offers, places and promotions.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the event based information can include when a user is within a predefined radius of a client location.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the event based information can include when a user is within a predefined radius of a competitor location.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the event based information can include how long a user is within a predefined radius of a defined location.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instruction are further configured to cause the processor to distribute a special offer or promotion to a user based on a status of the user relative to a defined location.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instruction are further configured to cause the processor to segment the plurality of users for a given client application based on demographic information.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the demographic information includes age, ethnicity, gender, religion, and likes and dislikes.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instruction are further configured to cause the processor to record at least one of the following: how the plurality of users for a given client application are engaging with content provided, what the most popular content is for a given client application, where users are when they are viewing content, and what social channels the users are sharing the content through.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein each client application is associated with a mobile application front end application configured to run on a mobile device associated with each to the plurality of users, and wherein the mobile front end application is configured to send a message to the processor each time event or action defined by an associated insights algorithm occurs on the mobile device.
11. A system for obtaining insight information for a
plurality of client applications and a plurality of mobile users, comprising: a processor;
a memory communicatively couple with the processor, the memory configured to store instructions, the instruction configured to cause the processor to:
distribute a plurality of types of content to the plurality of mobile users via any client applications included on the user's mobile device;
allow a client associated with a specific client application to select one or more locations, categorize each of the selected one or more locations, and selecting a target vertical for each selected location;
automatically select an insights algorithm for each selected location, the insights algorithm configured to obtain event based information through the associated client application whenever one of the plurality of users is within a radius, as defined by the insights algorithm, of one of the selected locations, wherein the insights algorithm is selected based on the selected location, the categorization of the selected location, and the target vertical for the selected location;
obtain the event based in formation for the plurality of users as dictated by any selected insights algorithm;
a mobile application front end application for each of the client applications, configured to run on a mobile device associated with each of the plurality of users, and wherein the mobile front end application is configured to send a message to the processor each time event or action defined by an associated insights algorithm occurs on the mobile device, and
a data warehouse configured to store the event based information for each of the plurality of client associated users;
wherein the target verticals include at least one of the following: hospitality, convenience stores, general retail, restaurants, and gaming and casinos;
wherein the categorized locations include a client location, a competitor location, a sponsor location, or a partner location.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the types of content include at least one of the following: advertisements, brands, events, information, galleries, news, offers, places and promotions.
13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the event based information can include when a user is within a predefined radius of a client location.
14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the event based information can include when a user is within a predefined radius of a competitor location.
15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the event based information can include how long a user is within a predefined radius of a defined location.
16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the instruction are further configured to cause the processor to distribute a special offer or promotion to a user based on a status of the user relative to a defined location.
17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the instruction are further configured to cause the processor to segment the plurality of users for a given client application based on demographic information.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the demographic information includes age, ethnicity, gender, religion, and likes and dislikes.
