Starting to work with more clients on targeted Advertising and geofencing. The platform is simple to use, guides through the process and has excellent reporting features. GroundTruth can login and setup a campaign which can run the next day itself. Their Excel sheets are very difficult to use and it's impossible to upload bulk locations into this campaign. It can take several business days to setup a 200 point campaign because the mass upload isn't good in my opinion.
