In the description with reference to the accompanying drawings, identical or corresponding components are indicated by the same drawing numbers. will be given and any redundant explanation will be omitted.

First, a method for providing a location-based online ordering service according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

According to this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the receiving unit 110 receives the consumer's location information and search information for the product the consumer wants to purchase from the consumer's terminal 10 (S130), loading The unit 120 retrieves sales information corresponding to the search information from the database 130 (S140), and the distance information generator 140 compares the seller's location information among the sales information with the consumer's location information to obtain distance information. A method of providing a location-based online ordering service is provided, including a step of generating (S150) and a step of the transmission unit 150 transmitting sales information according to distance information to the consumer's terminal 10 (S160).

According to this embodiment, distance information is generated based on the location information of the consumer and the seller, and the seller's sales information according to the distance information is provided to the consumer to encourage the consumer to purchase products from a seller located at a closer distance. By doing so, it is possible to reduce the burden of transportation costs, carbon emissions, and energy consumption by reducing unnecessary transportation distances, and in addition, it is possible to revive local commercial districts within a short distance based on the consumer's location.

Hereinafter, each step of the method for providing a location-based online ordering service according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

In step 130, the receiver 110 may receive the consumer's location information and search information about the product the consumer wants to purchase from the consumer's terminal 10.

Here, the terminal may be a PC, a smartphone, etc., and the consumer's location information may be IP information for a PC or GPS information for a smartphone.

Additionally, in some cases, the consumer's location information may be the product delivery address. In this case, the consumer's location information may be either the information of the consumer terminal (e.g., the above-mentioned smartphone GPS information, etc.) or the product delivery address, depending on the consumer's choice. It can be.

The receiving unit 110 may receive search information, such as a product name, entered by the consumer from the consumer's terminal 10.

In step 140, the loading unit 120 may load sales information corresponding to search information from the database 130.

That is, sales information of a plurality of sellers may be stored in the database 130, and the loading unit 120 compares the sales information with the search information received through the reception unit 110 to select sales information that satisfies the preset criteria. can be loaded.

Here, the preset criteria may include the same, similar, partially identical, partially similar, etc., of the search information and sales information.

In step 150, the distance information generator 140 may generate distance information by comparing the seller's location information among the sales information with the consumer's location information.

In other words, the sales information includes the seller's location information, and the distance information generator 140 can generate the distance information by comparing the seller's location information with the consumer's location information.

In step 160, the transmission unit 150 may transmit sales information according to the distance information to the consumer's terminal 10.

In this case, distance information may be provided in the form of a filter for sorting search results. Accordingly, consumers select the distance information filter to sort sales information in order of nearest distance to check the top, that is, sales information located closer to their location. and you can choose.

The distance information may be transportation distance information that uses the seller's location as the starting point and the consumer's location as the arrival point.

At this time, a GPS-based map program or service can be used to calculate the transportation distance between consumers and sellers, and further, traffic volume, tolls, and smoothness of the transportation route can be taken into consideration.

A realistic transportation distance may have a more complex route distance than the distance connecting the product's origin and destination points in a straight line or the shortest distance through a transportation route.

In other words, the transportation distance may be a route within a transportation system or transportation network that includes multiple hubs, that is, logistics distribution points.

Logistics distribution points exist for the reasonable transportation of large amounts of logistics, but as they must necessarily pass through the logistics distribution points, unreasonable transportation distances may occur.

Therefore, transportation distance information can be calculated according to transportation network data, reflecting the actual situation of the transportation industry.

Accordingly, the distance information is transportation distance information, and the transportation distance information is calculated according to transportation network data. Before the step of receiving search information (S130), the receiving unit 110 receives transportation network data from the servers 40 of a plurality of transportation companies. A step of receiving (S100) and a step of the database 130 storing transportation network data (S105) may be further included.

In addition, the seller includes a producer and a small merchant, and before the step of receiving search information (S130), a step (S120) of matching producers and small merchants located within a set distance is further included so that the producer can sell the product through the small merchant. You can.

Recently, as e-commerce technology has developed, product sales channels are moving from offline to online. In order to improve the profits of producers who are underdogs amid such changes, producers are provided with digital branding, product photography and sales page creation, SNS account opening, and Producers can be included as sellers by providing services such as setting promotional concepts and renewing product packaging.

In addition, producers are generally located in areas far from consumption areas due to land costs, production environments, etc., so producers may need to connect with merchants located near the consumption area.

Therefore, the producer can not only sell products to consumers as a seller, but also deliver products to small merchants as sellers by matching with small merchants located within a set distance, thereby simplifying the transportation distance and reducing transportation costs. .

The step of matching a producer and a small merchant (S120) includes a step (S122) in which the loading unit 120 loads seller information of a small merchant with location information within a set distance based on the producer's location information from the database 130, and It may include a step (S124) in which the transmission unit 150 transmits seller information according to sales volume to the producer's terminal 20.

The database 130 stores seller information of small merchants, and the seller information may include location information of small merchants.

The set distance can be set considering transportation distance and transportation cost, and seller information of small merchants within the set distance can be provided to the producer.

Additionally, seller information can be classified according to the sales volume of the small merchant and provided to the producer, and accordingly, the producer can select a small merchant with a high sales volume and make a matching request.

Before the step of receiving search information (S130), a step (S110) of the code generator 160 generating a QR code to be attached to the product is further included, and the QR code includes sales information and a consumer's repurchase request. Accordingly, a step of the consumer's terminal 10 scanning the QR code (S170) and a step of the consumer's terminal 10 receiving sales information according to the scanning of the QR code (S174) may be further included.

Here, the QR code (Quick Response Code) is a grid-patterned two-dimensional code that can be scanned with a smartphone, etc. to provide various information and can contain more data than a typical bar code.

The QR code can be formed as small as possible in consideration of the packaging design of the product to which it will be attached, and can also be provided with a grid pattern to facilitate long-distance scanning.

According to steps 170 and 174, the consumer can access sales information by scanning the QR code attached to the product using the consumer's terminal 10 to repurchase the purchased product.

In other words, QR codes can be a means for consumers to easily request repurchase.

If continuous repurchase occurs through this QR code, a distribution ecosystem can be formed in the adjacent region based on the consumer's location, and local commercial districts can be expected to revive accordingly.

The QR code further includes promotional content to induce repurchase of the product, and a step (S172) of the consumer's terminal 10 receiving promotional content may be further included before the step of receiving sales information (S174). .

In order to achieve continuous repurchase through QR codes as described above, it is necessary to provide additional means to catalyze consumers' repurchase in addition to providing QR codes.

Therefore, for this purpose, the QR code may further include promotional content for the product or seller, and here, the promotional content may include an advertising video.

To explain the implementation in detail, by scanning a QR code, consumers first access promotional content before accessing sales information. If the promotional content is a video, once the video is finished playing, consumers naturally access the sales information. You will be connected.

Accordingly, consumers who access the sales information can arouse a greater desire to repurchase the product.

Additionally, sales information may include repurchase discount compensation to encourage repurchase of the product.

Here, the repurchase discount reward may be a discount coupon applicable at the payment stage when purchasing a product, and the repurchase discount reward can be provided to consumers along with the aforementioned promotional content to more effectively induce consumers to repurchase.

Meanwhile, when a product is repurchased by scanning a QR code, the receiving unit 110 receives unit performance data according to the repurchase, and the data generating unit 170 aggregates the unit performance data by region to generate regional performance data. A step of generating and a step of the derivation unit 190 deriving information about a region in which regional performance data is less than or equal to a preset value may be further included.

As mentioned above, it is important for smooth repurchase to occur in order to create a distribution ecosystem in adjacent regions based on the consumer's location, so it is necessary to monitor the repurchase status by region.

Therefore, it is possible to establish measures such as monitoring and additional promotion for regions with low repurchase performance through regional information with regional performance data below the preset value.

Here, additional promotion may be carried out by transmitting advertisements, discount coupons, etc. for products of sellers located at a distance less than or equal to a preset distance based on the collected location information of the consumer to the consumer's terminal 10.

Unit performance data may be prepared differentially between the first repurchase and subsequent repurchases. For example, if the unit performance data is set to 1 for the first repurchase, it may be 2 for the second repurchase, and 3 for the third repurchase. As a result, it is possible to more practically understand the repurchase status.

When a product is purchased according to the selection of sales information, the determination unit 180 determines whether the distance information of the purchased product is less than or equal to the first set distance (S180), and whether the distance information is less than or equal to the first set distance. In this case, a step (S182) in which the transmitter 150 transmits the distance discount compensation to the consumer's terminal 10 may be further included.

In this case, when the consumer selects one product from the sales information according to the distance information and purchases the product, transportation costs, etc. are reduced due to a corresponding reduction in the transportation distance, so these benefits are shared with the consumer, allowing the consumer to purchase the product from a nearby distance the next time. It can be induced to do so.

Here, the first set distance can be set considering the size of the reduction in transportation distance and the amount of transportation cost reduction, and the distance discount compensation is provided in the form of a discount coupon applicable when paying for the product or in the form of mileage available when paying for the next purchase. It can be.

If the first set distance is greater than the second set distance and the distance information is less than or equal to the first set distance, the determination unit 180 determines whether the distance information is less than or equal to the second set distance (S190), and the distance information is the second set distance or less. If the distance is less than or equal to 2, a step (S192) in which the transmission unit 150 transmits additional distance discount compensation to the consumer's terminal 10 may be further included.

That is, by setting a second setting distance in addition to the first setting distance and providing additional distance discount compensation to the consumer if the distance information is less than the second setting distance, consumers can be encouraged to purchase products from a seller closer to their location. There will be.
