There’s a seemingly limitless variety of service businesses across North America. They can be large or small, old or new. Many service businesses share a common need for business mapping software to improve and inform their operational, sales and marketing processes.

Operational Applications – Service organizations tend to support field operations. In addition to outside sales people, service organizations support vehicle fleets for repair work, delivery or installation technicians. Often the business simply provides services at the consumer’s home address.

Map Business Online helps businesses manage their field support in multiple ways:

Optimized routing with time windows offers scheduling and efficient vehicle routing capabilities that keep fuel costs low, while improving productivity across your traveling team. You’ll find your field people can fit more customers into their days through improved productivity and resource management
MBO MapShare lets your field service associates access MBO from their home computers to explore shared routes through interactive web maps and even generate their own routes at extremely low costs
Review customer and field staff locations to determine assignments, availability and access growth. Service availability maps can be shared with customers too
Vehicle routing functionality, shared throughout the company, controls expense submissions. You set the rules about travel compensation. A business map shows them the way while verifying travel expense submittals
Drive time maps can establish guidelines for service deliveries. Set windshield time limits on your field force. MBO drive time can establish clear map boundaries that define driving extent times along all roads in all directions. Limit their driving time to one hour.

Marketing Campaigns – Marketing for a service industry business requires a solid understanding of the services you provide and why your clients desire your services. Map Business Online lets you organize those marketing ideas geographically. The tool provides a variety of data segmentation options that can assist in testing and implementing an efficient marketing campaign.

Create market areas of interest based on radius maps or drive time maps. Append a variety of demographic data layers to your analysis that help define your market. Import your own business data to add to the analysis
Filter and segment your customer and prospect lists based on geographic break down, or filtered by data search. Export these lists out for use outside the application

Learn How Our Customers are Succeeding with Map Business Online

The Alternative Board (TED), an advisory board creation service for business of all types and sizes, used MapPoint to import customer locations, create and manage territories, and for visual market analysis. When MapPoint left them high and dry, they began looking for a MapPoint replacement. This process led them to Map Business Online.

Over a period of a few weeks Map Business Online shared several online web demo that showed exactly how Map Business Online would replace and improve upon the mapping technology TED had become used to. The Alternative Board recently renewed their Map Business Online subscription for another year.

"I have had the pleasure of using MapBusinessOnline for the past 5 years and it is an excellent and affordable tool for my clients. I am a franchise consultant, and many of my clients are just starting to get into franchising. The first main question many of them have is they don’t know the demographics around their current location, so they don’t know how to create territories for their franchisees. I am able to easily utilize MapBusinessOnline to draw a prototype territory around their existing location, do a deep dive into the many different demographics that MapBusinessOnline offers, and help the client determine the basics of their new territories, including mileage, population, household count, purchasing habits and age distributions. This tool has been so helpful that many of our clients obtain their own accounts as they begin to sell franchises and grow their business. Thank you, MapBusinessOnline, for providing such a helpful tool that is affordable and easy to use!"
