Creating OFF (part-II):Retailer should focous on his store, not on learning how to manage profile

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

While developing OFF, we always have in mind how a retailer is going to use it.

First the idea was to give them  a profile where they can maintain all their details & post their offers. But we suddenly realized that we are designing something for the retailers in streets. He can’t spend hours to learn how to manage profile or spend 20minutes to login to his/her account and post an offer.

We dumped the idea that day and made it even simpler. Now you only have to send and email & your post will be made in seconds. No need to worry about the complex learning of profile management.

Just put the secrete email id issued to you in “To” input section >> On subject line write your offer like “[offer category] your offer” >> If you want some photoes, then attach them in attachments >> In text box give your coupon code or anything you need to mention >> Then send it.

Wait for 10seconds at max & you are done. The post is successfully made. followings are some of the screen shots. Have a good day. We will be live soon…

Creating a website for offers and discounts

Friday, June 25th, 2010

Let me introduce you to our new upcoming project code named “OFF xxxx”

Concept: As discount craze ourselves, we looked at concepts of a website that could show you where we will get a discount at good brands etc. We live in Bangalore and here when you walk down the street, you will surely buy bag full if you have some extra cash in your wallet, thanks to the ongoing great discounts & offers. Even if we have only Rs. 500.00 and we see 3 jeans at Rs. 999, we used to call up our friends and we shop 3 jeans for three of us only spending little more than Rs.330 each.

But the problem for retailers is there is a huge competition and the people at just 3kms away do not know about the discount at a jeans of a nice brand that they were waiting for.

So we are creating a simple website to let you know where discounts or offers are going on & the retailers can also be benefited from the huge sale.

In this Category “Creating OFF” we will publish continuous process & photos or screen shots while we are developing the website. So stay tuned. Ask any question in your mind in comment section.
