Reach target customers and boost sales with measurable offers on mobile
1. Great opportunity for retailers
Increase customer base , reach target audience, cost effective and measurable method
2. Retailers
Need more customers
Need loyal and repeated customers
Need their offers reaching the customers in a smarter way
Unlike through expensive TV / Print Media Ads / web media
Or any other Ads
Even if they have membership plans / cards, they hardly attract customers
Retailers spend more on advertising their offers
Currently they do not have measurable mechanism if their adverts are really
paying back to them
3. Consumers
Want more discounts / offers
Consumers want to compare offers and do smart purchases
Consumers can get GROUPON offers / deals
4. GAP Between Retailers & Consumers
Retailers offers are not reaching 100% to the consumers
Though some adverts are seen in print / TV media, consumers hardly
remember the offers at the time of real purchasing
Consumers are not able to compare the offers
There are NO GROUP ON offers currently offered by retailers
What is groupon offers?
If a group of consumers (a group of close friends / families / associations) go to a retailer, then more
products of consumers are sold at one shot. If groupon offers are known to the consumers then a
group of consumers can avail the offers.
Example : In real estate property, say there are 10 properties. If a 10 member group goes to the
property seller, he can sell all properties at one shot. This way he can reduce his advertising costs, his
time to sell is reduce, he realizes quick money. At the same time, all group members get the properties
at discounted price.
5. Retailers
In order to acquire customer base
Individual stores cannot afford to spend on advertising their products and
offers
Small chain of stores in city or in a region also cannot afford to spend on TV
and News Paper based advertisements
Nationwide stores, spend lot of money in advertising their brand and offers
on TV and News Papers. But are their advertisements are paying them back
100% ? They do not have proper measurable mechanism to track the
success of their campaigns
6. Retailers
Whether small stores or small chain of stores or nation wide chains of stores
Even if they advertise, how many of their advertisements are really reaching
the target audience?
Do people really know their offers?
Do people really compare their offers and visit them?
Some nationwide big chains provide loyalty membership cards but their
regularly changing offers do not reach their members even if they advertise
about their offers.
