How to find new online discount sites
It has gone way past the stage where we can pass off the fascination with online discount and daily deal sites as merely a fad. Some of these websites are becoming more and more profitable as businesses in their own rights, and it seems like there are new money saving sites coming online consistently every few weeks. The larger sites are becoming more well known, and are beginning to advertise on TV and in newspapers and magazines in order to gain a larger user base. The websites that are beginning to become larger are generally the ones that have been around longest, with a few exceptions.
Some newer sites are gaining large followings very quickly, particularly when they are filling a gap in the market or doing something new that has not been used in this field before. Though these sites are typically operating with a smaller budget than the corporate giants that are leading the charge, they are finding innovative new ways to get themselves noticed and to get the discounts they are offering to the public.
One such way of doing this is via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi proximity marketing. By sending the offers, or access to the discount site, directly to the mobile phone of the potential customers who would be making use of the offers, whilst they are out shopping, new discount sites can ensure that they are kept in mind when it comes to using those deals.
Research states that over a quarter of all daily deals that are bought on these sites go unused in the end. Perhaps this is because consumers simply forget they have the deals to use, or more often than not do not have time to cash in those deals. By advertising the offers directly to the consumers that would be using them, whilst they are out shopping, both the site and the customer can be sure that the discount is used, and the consumer knows they are getting something they actually want. Due to the nature of Bluetooth advertising, there is no charge for receiving these messages from the provider, and therefore these sites have more potential for growth than sites that are charging large amounts of money to both the customer and the business that is advertising with them. If you are interested in saving a bit of money on your high street shopping, and paying less for things that you were probably going to buy anyway, turn on your Bluetooth while you are out and about and let discount sites come to you.
While you are out shopping, turn on your Bluetooth and let discount sites come directly to your phone. Daily deals sites such as JungleDrum advertise to the mobile phones of users via Bluetooth.
