LAS VEGAS, Aug. 18, 2014 /CNW/ - LiveDeal Inc. (NASDAQ:LIVE) ("LiveDeal" or the "Company"), a publicly traded company that operates livedeal.com, a geo-location based mobile marketing platform that enables restaurants to publish "real-time" and "instant offers" to nearby consumers, today announces that it is initiating a partnership program with several national restaurant chains.
The program, exclusive to LiveDeal, will connect some of the nation's largest restaurant chains directly with LiveDeal's consumer audience who use its real time deal engine, directly bringing real time, premier savings opportunities. On the restaurant chain side, the partnership provides owners control over the timing of their offer .which traditional coupon and voucher sites do not offer. This elevated level of control creates an environment where both restaurants and consumers benefit from increased discount structures.
In addition, the partnership program will include free co-op television advertising placements in exchange for exclusive savings offers distributed through the LIveDeal platform.
"This partnership program is unlike anything seen previously in the industry, as it allows restaurants the 'full court press' to reach consumers, from online deals to television advertising, " said Jon Isaac, CEO of LiveDeal Inc. "The opportunity to provide consumers with a better deal comes easily to restaurant owners when they themselves receive one, and we are excited to be the engine that brings all of these elements together."
