Social Commerce Leader LivingSocial Launches in New Orleans
Now Residents Will Be Able to Save Money on the Hottest Local Attractions Through LivingSocial's Group Buying Platform
WASHINGTON, May 24 -- LivingSocial, the social commerce leader behind LivingSocial Deals, launched today in New Orleans, making its Deals program live in 20 cities across the country with plans to expand to dozens of markets throughout the year. To kick off the city launch, LivingSocial Deals New Orleans will feature a great offer for delicious Italian cuisine to The Olive Branch Cafe.
"We offer deals that we think will really let someone take advantage of something new and exciting, or something they maybe had forgotten existed. Whether that's an activity like rock climbing or skydiving, or the restaurant across town, LivingSocial really helps consumers take advantage of great businesses at fantastic prices," said Tim O'Shaughnessy, CEO and co-founder of LivingSocial. "LivingSocial's Deals program is not only great for consumers, but it's a new way for local merchants to advertise their business and see immediate ROI."
As the premier local activity discovery engine, LivingSocial is the place where anyone can find out what's hot in and around their city. As a result, the group buying service has dedicated city experts on the ground in every market. These city experts are constantly researching the best restaurants, spas, sporting events, hotels and other local attractions to bring a savings of 50-70% for consumers.
In an effort to give consumers greater access to the attractive savings, LivingSocial offers its daily deals for 24 hours, which means anyone can purchase the deal during that time if they wish. Additionally, users can take full advantage of LivingSocial's unique referral model. When a user purchases a LivingSocial Deal and three of their friends also take advantage of that deal, the user gets the deal for free.
With LivingSocial's unprecedented social media knowledge, the company is able to give local merchants an innovative way to reach nearby customers while granting them access to the company's extensive community of more than 85 million people. Furthermore, merchants get the viral power of the Internet, the reach of the LivingSocial community, and the leverage of the iPhone platform.
LivingSocial is now live in the following markets: Washington, D.C., New York City, Boston, Atlanta, Austin, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, the Twin Cities, Chicago, Raleigh Durham, Denver, San Diego, the San Fernando Valley, Portland, Orange County, Charlotte, Philadelphia, Dallas and New Orleans.
