Free WiFi: An Ultimate Lead Generation Tool.

Many businesses have social media accounts across the board, with a Facebook page, Instagram page, and Twitter handle just to name a few. We have always asked customers and visitors to like our pages or check in to help increase our brand awareness. They may or may not check your business on social media. The point here is missing these likes or check-ins does not help your brand awareness.

Technology facilitates many things in our day-to-day lives starting from when we wake up until the moment we fall asleep. It has a major effect on businesses as well. Gone are the days that you can run a business without a computer or any sort of smart system to manage your data, emails, online presence, etc…

Many people offer guest WiFi at their offices. With a simple change, this can be a huge opportunity to gain a larger social media audience. If the guest WiFi network is tied to a Facebook page, it will be direct visitors to your Facebook page providing the option to like or check-in to the page. A third (almost non-visible) option to skip is also available.

On the simplest scale, as of 2019, a person with a Facebook account has an average of 338 friends. If you get a single person connected on your guest WiFi network each day you will have access to hundreds of more people that can potentially become customers! With multiple people accessing the guest WiFi you’ll have a large number of potential customers to market your products or services to. Why waste this opportunity? Cisco Meraki supports Facebook integration and takes minutes to be set up. Reach out today for more information.

In addition to the above feature, Meraki access points easily allow the segregation of office and guest WiFi networks and the ability to schedule the closure of WiFi networks to suit your business hours for security reasons.
