“…Due to the possibility of a context-based customer approach through mobile devices, LBS are especially suited for businesses with a fixed address without a primary focus on an online distribution of their products (Möhlenhoff, Langer, and von Bischopinck 2011). With the option of considering the user's location for promotional purposes, LBS are particularly suitable as a marketing tool (Heinemann and Gaiser 2016). In this regard, the term 'location-based marketing' refers to any form of marketing that makes use of the users' location data for a targeted customer approach (Faber and Prestin 2012).…”

By measuring the possibilities of enterprises linking locationbased services (LBS) to regional and local content of interest, research found a tremendous lack of knowledge, how media enterprises -as well as content providers -in-and outside legacy media can use innovative LBS. One could presume that the absence of fulfiling market-information about current LBS proves to be a decisive factor causing a poor implementation of LBS in content-related services especially for media outlets. This contribution aims to fill this gap by providing an innovative, new kind of market exploration method for creating a general overview of current applications and, with that, the entire market for LBS, based on specific mentions of LBS in tech-related newsletters. The resulting category system (focusing on providers, areas of application, functions and technologies) enables the identification of success factors concerning which services are well established, and how this is linked to the type of application, technology, business models and other characteristics. The findings reveal the application of location analytics to enhance the user experience to be a particularly promising opportunity for current LBS implementation. With its completely new method, the study provides a much-needed new framework for further market explorations in this field.
