Sydney, Australia – 17 May 2016: Local Measure, the leading location-based social platform, today announced it was recognised as one of the first members of the Instagram Partner Program in Australia. The Instagram Partner Program distinguishes companies and their capabilities to run effective advertising campaigns, manage communities, source and deliver content on Instagram.
 
Local Measure has been badged a Partner in Community Management for its success and commitment in enabling global brands and businesses to uncover real-time local customer insights across the visual platform.
 
Jonathan Barouch, CEO and Founder, Local Measure, said “Being selected as one of the first Australian members of Instagram’s Partner Program is a huge honour for our entire team and reflects the unparalleled customer insights we can provide across social platforms.” 
 
“Many of our clients include leading hotels and travel brands and with a community of 400 million, Instagram is the perfect place on mobile where people tell creative, visual stories that drives engagement and ultimately revenue.”
 
“Our Instagram analytics tools give clients data and insights on their community and how to best optimise their digital strategies. The platform also helps them manage their Instagram community at significant scale.”
 
“We are excited about the opportunity to work closely with Instagram to help brands improve their interaction with users and ramp up their social media insights and customer engagement,” Jonathan said.
 
Companies in the Instagram Partner Program have expertise in at least one of three specialties — Ad Tech, Community Management and Content Marketing — to help marketers meet their objectives. 
 
Local Measure's proprietary technology allows brands and businesses to geolocate public user generated content to better understand their community, engage with them in real-time, manage multiple social media handles at scale, moderate comments and source and acquire rights to social content. The Local Measure platform also allows brands to identify and connect with influencers in real time.
