\nThere\u2019s no right answer. Depending on the situation, the target, location, hell even the mood of the person that\u2019s getting the notification, seeing Maps pop up with your current location could be either convenient to your travels and errands, or seemingly stalk you.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Consumers are absolutely flooded with notifications on their mobile devices. If you leave your phone for 20+ minutes, it\u2019s likely you have to scroll down your lockscreen to see everything you missed.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
So, how do brands factor into this phenomenon?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Marketers have the ability to slide into consumer\u2019s notifications in a few different ways, but the key is understanding your audience before ever deploying this tactic. Follow these key best practices before diving into geo-fence notifications:<\/p>\n

Be pleasant. Be positive. Be helpful. Be personal. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
