How can your Business make the best out of Pokémon GO?

Ever since its arrival at Apple Appstore and Google Play, Pokémon GO has been experiencing a skyrocketed popularity among the users. Well, there are some pretty impressive statistics here that are indicating a promising future for the gaming app:

• Pokémon Go has already surpassed the numbers of Twitter users
• An average user time accounts for 43 minutes and 23 seconds a day on the app

But for you who are new to this game, let us take you through a quick look at what Pokémon GO is all about. It is an Augmented Reality game that takes the player to the world of Pokémon. In order to catch different Pokémons, the player has to step out in the real world. The game tracks your GPS coordinates and accordingly tell you about the nearest place where you can find a Pokémon. Once you are in the ‘sight’ of the mystical creature, Pokemon GO allows you to ‘catch it’ in the picture. They can be located in places near you such as historical markers, city centers, malls, monuments, and stores. Moreover, anyone can reach out to fill a form and make a request to become a Pokéstop.

So you must be thinking that game can prove to be beneficial for your business. Off course, why not?!
