Geo-Fencing

Geo-fencing creates virtual boundaries around specific geographic locations to trigger mobile ads or app actions when users enter those areas. For local businesses, geo-fencing enables hyperlocal targeting—reaching people at competitor locations, hospitals, senior centers, or specific neighborhoods within your service area.

How This Applies to Home Care Marketing

Geo-fencing offers unique targeting opportunities for home care agencies. You can reach families as they visit hospitals (potential discharge planning moments), competitor agencies (comparison shopping), senior living communities (exploring options), or specific neighborhoods you want to serve.

Effective geo-fencing for home care might target hospital waiting areas with brand awareness ads, rehabilitation centers where families research post-discharge care, or community centers with senior programming. The key is reaching families in contexts where care needs are salient.

Key Takeaway

Use geo-fencing strategically for brand awareness in high-intent locations rather than aggressive conversion campaigns. A family researching at a hospital may appreciate seeing a helpful resource, but aggressive advertising in sensitive locations can feel invasive.
