Catch ‘Em All with ShareASale

Pokemon Go has taken the world by storm reaching the status of highest-grossing mobile app in the U.S. in just 13 hours of its release, and continually thriving with a mind blowing 21,000,000 average daily users. You can find the most unsuspecting people wandering the streets, hitting PokeStop after PokeStop in hopes of encountering the rarest of wild Pokemon on the way. We have even had a few Pokemon sightings of our own in the ShareASale office!  

Businesses are starting to use Pokemon Go’s success to build their own brand awareness. Restaurant owners are offering discounts for customers that find rare Pokemon in their establishments, designated PokeStop locations are activating lure modules to keep their locations a thriving, Pokemon hot spot, and some are offering comfy accommodations for players to take a load off and battle their Pokemon in the gym. So why not take the hype to your blog?
