BETA Launch of MerchantCircle 'Neighbors'
Greg Sterling, of Sterling Market Intelligence, recently profiled on his blog, Screenwerk, our "quiet" launch of MerchantCircle 'Neighbors' - which will allow consumers to create consumer profiles and 'follow' their favorite local merchants. This launch, which is still in BETA, gives our merchant base a stronger connection to offer deals directly to their customers. Sterling writes:
In much the same way that MerchantCircle has sought to create a social network of merchants, it has now begun that same work on the consumer side. But the object here is not so much to link consumers to one another as generate more interaction between consumers and merchants and stimulate demand, further activity and content creation. ..... If MerchantCircle is successful in getting consumers to join, create reviews, clip coupons and follow businesses, it will build considerable additional value for its merchants at no cost to itself.Read the rest of Sterling's post here or create your Consumer Profile now! Click here to get started. Consumer profile features: My Coupon Book: Consumers can clip deals and coupons created by you! My Reviews: Consumers share their thoughts about the best businesses in town. My Merchants: Consumers can “follow” local businesses to get updated news and events.
Tell us what you'd like to see or improve in our 'Neighbors' program, here, in our forums.
Sincerely,
Community RelationsLabels: Consumer Profiles, coupons, deals, Greg Sterling, Local, Merchant Circle, MerchantCircle, MerchantCircle.com, Neighbors, Screenwerk
