Ryan Haworth
CEO
Ryan Haworth is CEO of Social Places, the platform and managed service that keeps multi-location brands accurate and discoverable at store level. He works with brands running anywhere from fifty to several thousand locations, in more than eighty countries. QSR, retail and banking make up the bulk of that, but the problem is the same in any industry with more locations than head office can watch. He writes here about local search, the operational side of franchise marketing, and what happens to store discovery when customers stop searching and start asking. Less theory, more what actually works when a change has to land across hundreds of locations at once.
