CraveLabs is reinventing local advertising with a frictionless approach to building fully automated local/mobile advertising campaigns. By leveraging the existing behavior of SMBs already investing time into Facebook marketing channels, our platform can expand the reach of each status update, event, or offer, by turning it into a mobile ad unit (combining display and landing page).
