New Technology Enables Local Businesses to "Close the Loop" by
            Tracking from Online to Point of Sale Off-line
SAN FRANCISCO--(Business Wire)--
G5 Search Marketing Inc., a leader in local advertising and
measurement solutions, today announced the addition of mobile coupons
to its local marketing platform. G5's new mobile technology gives
local businesses the ability to track their customer conversions from
where they originate online to the point of sale off-line.

   In local markets, people search online and then pick up the phone
or go into the store to complete the transaction off-line. The G5
Local Marketing Platform tracks the coupon redemption, using
proprietary tracking technology, back to the advertising source where
it originated online -- showing you what ads turned into customers.
This empowers business owners to "close the loop" and find which
advertising campaigns are producing their most profitable customers.

   "Local businesses can now see which advertising campaigns, be it
from Google, Yahoo, Facebook or some other web properties, turned into
customers," said G5 CEO Dan Hobin. "They can also see which customers
come from maps or optimized search engine listings."

   G5 Mobile Coupons for Local Internet Advertising are offered as
part of the G5 Local Marketing Platform. For more information contact
G5 at (800) 554-1965.
