Innovative Partnerships: How music festivals and putting greens can drive customer acquisition

Customer acquisition is crucial for shared mobility operators’ success, yet attracting an increasing number of users to their vehicles remains a challenge. Fortunately, operators need not tackle this task alone. By fostering innovative partnerships with third parties, shared mobility operators can attract new customers and retain existing ones, all while becoming an integral part of the local community and delivering unique experiences that set their service apart.
