1. Hownd
Founded: 2016
Also honored in:
“Today’s consumers are savvy. They want highly personalized offers and promotions delivered at the right time and place. But most local business owners lack the time and expertise needed to do this effectively, quantifiably and affordably without being gouged on profit. So they spend thousands of dollars on generic marketing methods and tools that produce lackluster – if any – results.
Hownd™ revolutionizes how entertainment, health & beauty, food & beverage, and other local businesses generate more foot traffic. Our fully automated, consumer behavior-driven marketing platform creates effortless foot traffic, more repeat visits, instant revenue, and higher profit – and it’s all quantifiable. We do it by displaying targeted Buy Now and other promotional offers on your website, via email and social media, WiFi data capture, and our own MyHownd™ mobile app – at times when consumers are most likely to purchase. It only takes 5 minutes to set up and is zero-risk because you only pay when we bring you, customers.”
