With the economic landscape and buying habits of the general public changing, businesses who attempt new forms of marketing need to either put themselves out there, or forget it. If they choose to stick to traditional marketing methods, they might experience growth locally, but I wouldn't expect it to equate with SM because it has momentum. And, when you think about it, all of the biggest names got to where they are because they choose to take risks. The difference is that they chose the right risks and went into each situation with their eyes wide open.<br><br>I think it's only a matter of time before Foursquare becomes as popular there as it is in the US because it does one very important thing: Like an RPG, it brings the user into the community...it's much more than participation. 100% agree Justin.

I think it's only a matter of time before Foursquare becomes as popular there as it is in the US because it does one very important thing: Like an RPG, it brings the user into the community…it's much more than participation.

I am a later arriver to Foursquare and am messing around with it now, and its definitely interesting as a business option, if they are clued in to the functionality and system and are prepared to leverage it but like you mention Angie, it can be positive and negative if they do not put their customers first.
