There are two positions you can take regarding geotargeting:
A) It is relevant. You have a special offer for those people walking down Market Street in San Francisco.
B) It is irrelevant. You can target the entire world, it doesn’t matter.

Is our recruiting campaign working better in Ecuador or Malaysia?
