Araba is a kind of tree..

ribiti literally means something big, expansive and mighty.

So, araba ribiti is simply saying God is big, mighty, expansive like the araba tree...

HOW LOCATION BASED MARKETING CAN HELP YOUR BUSINESS GROW BEYOND EXPECTATIONS!!!

What Is Location Based Marketing?

Location based marketing is a form of marketing that enables you to reach your prospects within a particular location thus driving targeted responses to your offer, business or announcements.

What Are The Benefits Of Location Based Marketing?

Attract New Customers: One of the best ways to convert online traffic and foot traffic into new customers is via location-based marketing. People who may never have considered using your product or may have never heard of you, can be persuaded to try your business for the first time.

Attract Lots of Customers: With developments in social media and mobile devices, it's now far easier to attract a large group to your business.

Convert Impulses to Sales: Location-based marketing helps to greatly remove barriers to sales. Once a customer is physically close to your store, you have a greater chance of persuading them to purchase from you. Let's say it's a rainy day and a passerby is vaguely thinking that he might need to buy an umbrella. Your location-based message hits his smartphone, offering umbrellas at a discounted price in your nearby store. His impulse - to buy an umbrella - is converted into a sale for your business.

Become A Local Legend: It is highly unlikely that a small business will dominate any particular market in a city. However, the strategic use of location-based marketing can make you a viral hit in your street or city - and this may be all it takes to double your turnover. By focusing your marketing efforts close to your business location, you can get the kind of market saturation that's impossible on a broader scale.

Instant Results: Utilizing Location based Mobile Marketing helps you get instant results as your campaigns are targeted.

Cost Effective: Location based targeting helps you afford repetition and also provides you with the highest Return On Investment (ROI).

All these the OP posted is rubbish! Best u stick to worshipping ur Jewish/European god in English because ur beliefs aren't consistent with Yoruba language and culture

Take "olorun emi mimo" for instance...in Yoruba this is jst stuupid cus "emi" strictly refers to breath of life...that which grants sentience...and The creator Olodumare is not sentient as such can't be refered as "emi"

Asorodayo and Atorise doesn't refer to Olorun but Orunmila baba Ifa

"Olorun omo" that's jst funny...Olorun is no son to anybody..
The name "Olorun" Doesn't jst mean "God" it means "owner of the spiritual realm" and in Yoruba this God is nothing like the god of the Bible
