“Geo-fencing. Showrooming. Local-mobile-social. Those are the buzzwords cropping up increasingly among marketers attempting to build connected brands with mobile consumers. At an eMarketer breakfast on September 19 (where I’m blogging and tweeting live), eMarketer CEO and co-founder Geoff Ramsey provides a quick overview of ways that brands can use location-based marketing to build closer relationships with consumers who use location-based services such as Foursquare and Yelp.
