9:10–9:35 a.m. Morning Keynote – Creativity in Your Pocket: DIY Mobile Content Creation

Brand marketers are taking advantage of a whole host of new hyperlocal marketing and advertising opportunities including ad geofencing, layering location on top of social media, targeting specific places of business with advertising, marketing to event goers with apps and use of mobile beacons.

Both upstarts and well-established retail players are realizing there are more interfaces for consumers to interact and purchase products than ever before.

With over 140k locations in the North America, convenience and fuel represent an annual TAM approaching 1 trillion dollars with over 40 million visits per day and have evolved from milk and vice products to healthier alternatives.

9:30-10:00 a.m. Panel — SMB DIY: Is Local Getting Closer to Solving the Serve-Yourself Conundrum?
One of the great ironies of the local ecosystem is that the market of small and medium-sized businesses is enormous and promises great scale to those who can provide tech solutions — but selling to and serving these businesses can be a grind, and the cost of feet on the street can leave providers with thin margins. This panel will look at the evolution of self-service solutions for small business marketing.
