Follow on Google News | iCastDeals Reveals New Marketing TechnologyFor companies that want to communicate more effectively with their customers, this new system offers efficiency, low cost, instant response – and best of all, the control is in the hands of the consumer.
By: iCastDeals Company Puts Marketing Power in Hands of Consumer Irvine, CA (February 23 2010) iCastDeals, a provider of consumer-oriented marketing programs, has introduced its flagship product today at the South Coast Venture Network monthly mixer. For companies that want to communicate more effectively with their customers, this new system offers efficiency, low cost, instant response – and best of all, the control is in the hands of the consumer. Many companies have been using email, text messaging, blogs and podcasts to reach out to their customers. However, the timing and content of the messages are controlled by the company. Customers have only one choice – to receive the messages or not. iCastDeals offers something new. Companies that want to deliver timely information regarding special deals or offers can enter their own iCastDeals website and create an offer in only minutes. Then they can send this offer out instantly or schedule a time to send it. Customers can specify the types of offers they want to receive and the days and hours that they are interested in receiving such an offer. This way, customers only get the messages that they want, via email, text or phone – when they want them. They can always log into their own private iCastDeals site and change their preferences or unsubscribe from receiving future offers at any time. They can choose from any participating iCastDeals business. In other words, the consumer now has complete control over how companies market to them! This type of marketing is ideal for any company that wishes to reach out to consumers with special offers. For example, a restaurant can offer a special two-for-one deal when the business is slow and get an instant response. A nightclub that hasn’t sold out a show can reach out to customers and offer a last-minute discount. The list goes on and on. iCastDeals has begun marketing this service to local businesses and is receiving a strong response. The combination of a low-cost marketing campaign that is easy to use and always available is extremely attractive to businesses that have been suffering through the recent downturn. Business owners are also aware of the fact that consumers want more control over how they are contacted, and that they are looking for a good deal in these trying times.
