(November 2011) – Recent studies have shown that Groupon™, Foursquare and Yelp have a combined 110 million users that access these respective sites daily for deals, to share information and access reviews. Bizzability, a leading website and mobile application, provides an all-in-one source for checking-in, redeeming custom e-deals and finding more than 18 million local businesses with a complementing iPhone and Android app, available for free download.
“The ever-growing need for quick and useful information was the driving force behind creating the Bizzability website and smartphone app,” states Guy Kennett, chief executive officer. “We’re hoping to revolutionize the way popular features are accessed by streamlining to one place to lessen clutter as well as help consumers and businesses alike.”
With a goal of simplifying the web-surfing experience, Bizzability.com combines the features of leading sites by offering users the ability to do the following:
- Read reviews from other checked-in visitors, see ratings as well as add their own
- Learn about upcoming local events and share them on Facebook and Twitter
- Obtain e-deals with no financial commitment, as they are paid for upon redemption
- Retrieve business contact information and directions utilizing GPS powered by Google Maps
In addition to the website, Bizzability also has a complementing app that is available on all iPhone and Android smartphone devices that provides an on-the-go version of the Bizzability website. Striving to offer more convenience and perks, Bizzability works with numerous local businesses to reward users for checking-in with incentives ranging from a special discount to a complimentary drink. In addition to the perks earned from checking-in, Bizzability also offers customizable push notifications.
Push notifications use the latest in technology, allowing users to receive alerts with the specific e-deals. Users can rank categories of their choice and receive customize deals based on the category, time and day of the week and location. While the push notifications are useful for consumers, businesses also benefit as these notifications are sent directly to smartphones of potential customers. Push notifications have an almost 100 percent open rate, which is more than five times higher than that of e-mail communications.
“We put our users in control with our push notifications delivering custom e–deals directly to their smart phones exactly when and how they want,” states Richard May, chief operating officer of Bizzability.
