RapidBuyr Launches New Daily Business Deals Site in Boston
Seaport and Lenox Hotels, Motorsport Lab, Boston Duck Tours Offer First Savings on Daily Deal Site that Saves Small and Mid-Sized Businesses up to 80% on Products and Services; Company Partners with Boston Business Journal for Hometown Launch
CONCORD, Mass., Aug. 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- RapidBuyr (http://www.RapidBuyr.com), a daily deal site catering exclusively to small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), today announced the launch of its local daily deals in its hometown of Boston. To kick off the Boston launch, several Boston landmarks have signed on to offer the inaugural deals, including a corporate teambuilding and customer appreciation experience at the Action Kitchen at the Seaport Hotel, a supercar driving experience at Motorsport Lab, a private corporate outing from Boston Duck Tours and a corporate package from the Lenox Hotel.
RapidBuyr deals offer businesses deep discounts ranging from 30-80 percent on important B2B/SMB products and services from Boston-based merchants. Offers range from computer hardware, software, web development and design, SaaS and cloud offerings, peripherals and IT outsourcing to marketing services, meeting space, staffing assistance, information subscriptions, office furniture and equipment, local services, travel and sporting and business events.
"RapidBuyr provides a great opportunity for us to reach new audiences with our corporate offerings through its growing network of partners," said Dan Donahue, V.P. and Managing Director at the Lenox Hotel. "We're thrilled to be a part of the kickoff here in Boston and look forward to offering new RapidBuyr deals in the future."
Through a partnership with the Boston Business Journal and Mass High Tech, Boston becomes the ninth city in the growing RapidBuyr network, joining Cincinnati, Houston, Minneapolis, Phoenix, Portland, Seattle, St. Louis and Tampa. The company is headquartered just north of the city in Concord and its founders are all Boston-area natives.
"We are pleased to bring Boston businesses some of the best deals around for local products and services - and to also help local merchants reach new audiences in this market," stated Tom Aley, president and CEO of RapidBuyr. "We are very selective about the businesses and products featured through RapidBuyr. Our staff does its due diligence to make sure that each merchant makes the grade."
Boston businesses can access RapidBuyr's daily deals in a variety of ways:
-- Sign up for email alerts at http://www.rapidbuyr.com. Just provide an email
address and a zip code.
-- Follow RapidBuyr on Twitter (@RapidBuyr) or Facebook

In addition to its website, RapidBuyr distributes daily deals through BuyerZone, the leading online B2B lead generation company, and American City Business Journals (ACBJ), the nation's largest publisher of metropolitan business newspapers. By utilizing these channels, RapidBuyr's deals reach a network of more than 11 million SMBs.
"RapidBuyr is giving SMBs the same money-saving opportunities big businesses enjoy by buying in bulk," said Chris McIntosh, publisher of the Boston Business Journal. "We've seen a groundswell of deal-a-day sites aimed at consumers, and RapidBuyr is filling the void for business consumers. And, from a marketing perspective, it's an excellent opportunity for local B2B product and service providers to expand their marketing outreach and grow their customer base with no upfront cost."
