GTX Corp Targeting Fast Growth Mobile Data

GTX Corp (OTCQB: GTXO.OB) Targeting Fast Growth Mobile Data Consumption Market

“Keeping you connected to whom and what matters most,” is the simplest way to describe what GTX does. The company is a leader in GPS tracking-enabled applications for mobile devices, and a recent report from Wedbush Securities outlined the rapid growth that market has seen.

Wedbush noted that the number of mobile data users grew by 95.5 percent year-over-year, page views increased by 149.6 percent and data usage was up 163 percent year-over-year. In the second quarter of 2011, they reported that the estimated number of mobile phones grew to o 365 million units. Smart phones accounted for 106.5 million of those devices. Apple took the top ranked position among smart phone users, followed by Samsung, Nokia (which fell from number one in the first quarter of the year), RIM (the maker of Blackberry devices), and HTC.

GTX offers apps that work on phones from all five of the top manufacturers.

One of the products that GTX offers is the LOCiMOBILE GPS Tracking Apps. It has proven to be popular with consumers and has been downloaded more than a million times in over 125 countries. After downloading the app to their smart phones, users can easily find exactly where friends or family are. Users add contacts they’d like to track using the app. After hitting the "LOCi" button for friends and family who have agreed to be trackable, their location appears within seconds on a Google map. In addition to the requirement to agree to be located by the user, there are other options to maintain privacy.

GTX has significant growth potential from this technology. Additional apps for the Personal Location Service technology include Deal of the Day notifications, a targeted marketing campaign. LOCiMOBILE makes it possible to push the messages only to consumers in a specific area, helping retailers connect with potential nearby buyers. Retailers have long depended upon walk-in traffic, and GPS Tracking Apps allow the retailer to reach potential consumers who may be driving to a nearby grocery store.

The newly launched MyChamberApp uses GTX GPS-enabled technology to allow for precise targeting of consumer promotions. Small towns often revolve around their downtowns, generally a collection of the small businesses that drive the local economy and a park for recreation or historic sites to explore and learn about the history of the community. That means consumers are already nearby, boosting the effectiveness of the ads. Celebrations that define small towns can now become big sales days for businesses using the app to offer specials to potential buyers already in the area.

MyChamberApp is the only mobile directory of businesses owned and operated by local chamber members. It creates a variety of marketing options for local communities. Precise proximity marketing has long been a potential killer app in the smart phone market, and GTX is among the first companies to find a way to target the ads. MyChamberApp also offers cities and chambers the opportunity to demonstrate that they are on the leading edge of technology.

Offering strong products in a rapidly growing industry has been a successful business model in the past. GTX is applying that model in the rapidly expanding mobile data market.
