MegaMania Announces New Advancements to Its Local Business Network Program
22 February 2005MegaMania Interactive, Inc. (MMI) (OTC: MNIA) announces the integration of several beta technologies into its platform to migrate local communities onto the Internet.
A pioneer in web localization, MMI understood early on that the Internet worked globally, but had not matured to the local level. While web surfers can visit websites from California, to New York, to Europe, they still find it nearly impossible to perform meaningful local tasks online. Such as, schedule a haircut appointment, book a dinner reservation or pay a day care bill.
MegaMania has been focused on both helping local companies successfully integrate online technology into their traditional brick-and-mortar business, as well as bringing local online consumers and local businesses together. MMI has been field testing its suite of online technology and marketing concepts with thousands of U.S. small businesses.
For 2005, the Company is introducing its 123City Local Business Networks into targeted U.S. markets. The new program consists of six technologies integrated into one platform which these Neighborhood Networks rest on. One of the key components is the 123City Cash Card, which is a local discount card similar to the popular cards used by today's leading supermarket chains. What makes the 123City Cash Card unique is that it is honored at multiple local businesses within the community and can save consumers 10, 20, 30 percent or more, on everything from dry cleaning and haircuts, to lunches and dinners.
The Neighborhood Network is also supported by:
-- a web portal which identifies which local businesses accept the card;
-- the 123City Newspaper, a free publication which educates area
residents about the network; and
-- touch-screen kiosks placed in hotels around the neighborhood to reach
travelers.
According to MMI's CEO, George Bogle, "Travelers basically ask the same questions, such as 'Where's a good place to eat or where can I get a haircut?' They can simply walk up to the kiosk, make their selection and print out a coupon and a map. We're also examining technology that will let the kiosk print out their 123City Cash Card on the spot!"
The objective is to create a medium in the community that uses the Internet and non-traditional advertising forms to bring businesses and consumers together in much more meaningful ways then today's basic Internet yellow pages.
About MegaMania's Neighborhood Networks -- Individuals interested in installing MMI's "123City Neighborhood Network" in their community should contact MegaMania to learn about becoming the Master Partner for their area.
