Integrating Wireless Technology in Business.

How Today's Technology Is Used in Business to Communicate

Mobile marketing is a growing area that is of particular interest to small businesses trying to reach local customers.

Many of the benefits of using mobile technology center around improving communication. Cell phones keep businesses and employees connected with each other and customers both at the office or on vacation. It gives individuals the ability to communicate instantly and respond quickly to business situations. Laptops have become powerful computing devices that offer access to all of the applications needed to run a business, including accounting software, a Web browser or a database program. Mobile marketing reaches new and existing customers through a direct channel that helps with sending out special offers and tracking responses.

FIGURE 16.10 GIS Uses.

GRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS USES
Finding what is nearby	Given a specific location, the GIS finds sources within a defined radius. These might be entertainment venues, medical facilities, restaurants, or gas stations. Users can also use GIS to locate vendors that sell a specific item they want and get the results as a map of the surrounding area or an address.
Routing information	Once users have an idea where they want to go, GIS can provide directions to get there using either a map or step-by-step instructions. Routing information can be especially helpful when combined with search services.
Sending information alerts	Users may want to be notified when information relevant to them becomes available near their location. A commuter might want to know that a section of the highway has traffic congestion, or a shopper might want to be notified when a favorite store is having a sale on a certain item.
Mapping densities	GIS can map population and event densities based on a standard area unit, such as square miles, making it easy to see distributions and concentrations. Police can map crime incidents to determine where additional patrolling is required, and stores can map customer orders to identify ideal delivery routes.
Mapping quantities	Users can map quantities to find out where the most or least of a feature may be. For example, someone interested in opening a specialty coffee shop can determine how many others are already in the area, and city planners can determine where to build more parks.
