The Near Platform offers an array of benefits for QSRs including:

• Selecting New Restaurant Locations with Precision: Decision makers can decide where to place a new store with solid restaurant data intelligence and optimize down to which side of a block, which side of a shopping center, and how wide to make a drive-thru based on consumer movement and traffic patterns.
• Attracting More Diners and Measuring ROI: QSRs can target audience segments with digital ads that are relevant to them, and out-of-home (OOH) ads on the routes their audience naturally travels. Decision makers can analyze customers' movement to correlate who entered a restaurant, and attribute visits to the right ads.
• Understanding Diners’ Movement Patterns: QSRs can analyze consumers’ movement patterns, travel habits prior to and after visiting a restaurant, visits by time of day or day of week, and more; they can also see the draw distance of any location, and how far people are willing to travel to get there.
• Understand Markets and Competitors’ Customers: Decision makers can survey any place – including competitors' stores – and analyze its consumers’ brand affinities and movement patterns; they can see how their customers interact with the competition and customize messaging to win their loyalty.
