S4M Celebrates Ten Year Anniversary and Rapid International Expansion With Worldwide Rebrand and Rename

S4M, the leading drive-to-store platform for tier-one retailers, restaurants & auto dealerships, today announced it is rebranding to Ask Locala. The company was founded a decade ago with a mission to drive industry-leading success for location-based businesses using mobile advertising. Since 2011, S4M’s technology has consistently evolved, using machine learning algorithms to learn from consumer movements and their response to tens of thousands of campaigns. This unique, fully automated approach has resulted in a platform that is unmatched with regards to both hyper-localized campaign performance and granular measurement capabilities. The company has also scaled its business globally, now operating in over ten countries and performing campaigns in dozens more.

S4M’s move to the Ask Locala name is designed to better represent the company’s complete suite of advertising and measurement solutions and cement its focus on supporting location-based businesses. Current worldwide events have increased the frequency with which consumer buying patterns have changed, and Ask Locala has been designed from the ground up to create and sustain reliable revenue streams via physical or eCommerce traffic.
