Austin,TX— In every major city, it's quickly becoming all about the daily deal online – the convergence of a collective buying concept with the struggling economy continues to make the idea of group discount websites a runaway success. Businesses benefit from increased traffic from a targeted audience of web savvy customers who appreciate a great deal. Localiter is the newest Austin-based Internet startup to enter this market, offering daily group discounts at many local businesses.Localiter will launch in March offering daily deals from Austin businesses. Customers sign up on the Localiter website to receive a daily deal via e-mail. An example deal works as follows: If 20 customers agree to purchase the $40 value of the product or service offered, each customer receives that $40 value of the product or service at half price.
Localiter guarantees promotions that will rival their competitors while adding an Austin touch. “Austin is so much more than weird and wired; we are also well-connected as a city and we tap into this by incorporating local businesses into every aspect of our promotions,” comments Localiter founder Kristina Garza. “The website, for example, will have flip video interviews for each daily promotion so that users can catch a glimpse of the actual ins and outs of the businesses we promote.”
The range of daily deals on Localiter covers a wide array of products and services. The Belmont, Lift and Taco Deli are among the first to offer daily deals to Austinites through Localiter.com. Service providers like alterations pros Ace Tailors and acupuncturist Claudia Voyles will also market their services using the Localiter collective buying concept.
“You are offering a powerful incentive to hundreds of potential customers to learn, talk about, visit and ultimately spend more money on your product or service,” says co-founder Adam Helsinger. Helsinger adds that, “Localiter sets itself apart from other collective buying sites like Groupon or Living Social by focusing on Austin businesses. Austin is a market that will support its local retailers over larger chains and we will prioritize that way of doing business by promoting and building a powerful customer base through an engaging new website.”
Localiter will launch in early March and recently announced a pre-launch contest; sign up at www.localiter.com before March 10th to be entered into a raffle to win a $512 cash prize to be awarded at the launch event on March 11th.
