GTX Corp and AllStar Deals™ Partner on First Social Commerce Website to Pay Users to Source and Market Daily Deals
LOCiMOBILE® users given the first shot at capitalizing on cutting-edge social marketing revenue stream
LOS ANGELES, March 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- GTX Corp (OTCBB: GTXO), a leader in 2-way GPS Personal Location Services (PLS), and AllStar Deals™, the first social commerce website that pays consumers to source daily deals and market them to their social networks, signed a master affiliate revenue share agreement. AllStar Deals™ enables consumers to act as social media entrepreneurs by finding and creating deals in their local communities. LOCiMOBILE, a trailblazer in GPS tracking apps with 1.2 million members across 145 countries, will play a key role in the marketing and recruiting of the "deal scouts" that are the nexus of local deal creation and proliferation.
AllStar Deals enables consumers to act as entrepreneurs by finding and creating deals in their local communities and taking a cut of the profits generated. These "deal scouts" work with the local merchants they regularly visit such as restaurants, hair salons, gyms, and bars to arrange compelling offers, which they then disseminate via social media avenues including Facebook, Twitter, and even personal email. "Empowering our users to become a virtual sales force for their local merchants and to utilize their social networking skills to earn money for themselves is a natural extension of the service that we provide to our LOCiMOBILE users, as well as an exciting new revenue stream for the Company," remarked Jerry Barbera, Senior Vice President of Business Development for GTX Corp and LOCiMOBILE®.
The market for such innovation has never been riper, as Gartner reports that 42% of consumers use their phone to check a store location, 31% use it for a mobile promotion, and 17% use their phone for the actual purchase. "The LOCiMOBILE community is a perfect demographic for AllStar. In our first week, hundreds of LOCi users have already expressed interest in becoming deal scouts with us," commented Mark Levin, founder and CEO of AllStar Deals. "We look forward to working with this group of mobile social networking consumers who will be able to source deals and earn cash, as well as benefit from the broad array of innovative deals the AllStar Deals site will offer."
