What is livedeal.com?
livedeal.com is a unique, real-time "deal engine" connecting merchants with consumers. The Company believes that it has developed a first-of-its-kind web/mobile platform providing restaurants with full control and flexibility to instantly publish customized offers whenever they wish to attract customers. The website includes a number of user and restaurant-friendly features, including:
-- an intuitive interface enabling restaurants to create limited-time offers
and publish them immediately, or on a preset schedule that is fully
customizable;
-- state-of-the-art scheduling technology giving restaurants the freedom to
choose the days, times and duration of the offers, enabling them to
create offers that entice consumers to visit their establishment during
their slower periods;
-- advanced publishing options allowing restaurants to manage traffic by
limiting the number of available vouchers to consumers;
-- superior geo-location technology allowing multi-location restaurants to
segment offers by location, attracting customers to slower locations
while eliminating potential over-crowding at busier sites;
-- innovative proprietary restaurant indexing methodology; and
-- a user-friendly mobile and desktop web interface allowing consumers to
easily browse, download, and instantly redeem "live" offers found on
livedeal.com based on their location.
Restaurants can sign-up to use the LiveDeal platform at the Company's website (www.livedeal.com) or via the LiveDeal App, which is scheduled to be released in March, 2014.
