2. Trends
• Real-time marketing and hyper local targeting
• Marketing will be automated by software
• Multichannel and multiscreen presence
• Very soon businesses without mobile strategy will be
uncompetitive
3. Problem (for businesses)
• How to reach, interact and attract
more clients nearby using the
mobile channel?
• How to increase sales by
generating and managing mobile
leads?
4. Problem (for end users)
• How to find what’s new around me
and see relevant promotions –
everywhere, fast and convenient?
• Is there an application which I could
use as universal mobile search
instrument? (I don’t want to install ten
apps for ten different services)
5. Problem and Solution (Recap)
No software for mobile marketing and hyper-local targeting in
the target regions and no mobile app providing useful
information and access to promotions - all in one. Solutions are:
1. Providing efficient tool for mobile marketing to the businesses
and enabling them to attract clients nearby with special offers
and leads.
2. Giving easy and convenient access to location-aware
information, services and promotions to the end users.

9. The competition - profiles
• No mobile app with identical functions in the target markets
• Some emerging players on the Balkans (www.getlokal.com
and http://www.orasulm.eu/) with emphasis on entertainment
• The big international players have different scope (Yelp is
focused on reviews and Four Square is social networking app)
• Daily deals market is slowly declining
10. The competition – characteristics
• The competition in the targeted emerging mobile markets is
not intense in the segment mobile app for generating leads
• The barriers for new entrants are not high

search with keyword in a browser is not that convenient in
smartphone. People bypass Google to go straight to apps.

promotions, etc.

receive multitude of relevant services and information
