The company I work for (IoT Design Shop - http://iotdesignshop.com/) is actually releasing beacons and software that does exactly this. We have a BLE beacon called Signul that couples with an app that allows you to do all kinds of hyper-local interactions.

Right now you can support our Indiegogo campaign (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/signul-the-world-s-first-...) and get a Signul beacon. I have a prototype version and it's really quite good.

If the Indiegogo campaign hits $50k (it's currently sitting at $31k) we're going to release an SDK for Signul allowing anybody to write an app that interacts with the Signul beacon for either iOS or Android devices.
