Yellowbook Launches Weforia.com Group Buying Destination

UNIONDALE, N.Y., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Yellowbook, a leading 360-degree marketing company focused on helping small businesses succeed, today announced its entry into the online Group Buying category with the launch of Weforia (www.weforia.com), a website focused on delivering unique deals and discounts.

"Yellowbook's goal is to provide small businesses with multiple ways to reach local customers," said Mike Wilson, general manager and vice president of digital media with Yellowbook. "A consumer-facing website like Weforia.com, built to showcase special, local limited-time deals from our clients, is a natural extension to our current portfolio."

The site, launching in three test markets - Boston, Phoenix and Ft. Myers - will provide small businesses with the opportunity to garner additional awareness, attract new clients, promote new services, generate immediate revenue, and more.

"A big challenge for players in the group buying space is geography," Wilson added. "For example, a Manhasset, NY-based nail salon receives little value when their deal is promoted to consumers all across the New York metropolitan area. It's not an efficient marriage of buyers and sellers. With its hyper-local market coverage approach, Weforia will help bridge those gaps."

In addition to Weforia.com, merchant group offers will be promoted on Yellowbook.com, Yellowbook's suite of Mobile Apps (including Android, iPhone and iPad, among others) and across its vast partner network.  

The Weforia announcement follows on the heels of the company's launch of its 'yellowbook360. beyond yellow' marketing campaign, which highlights the broad portfolio of products and services Yellowbook offers to drive small business success.
