KooPons! - CarryOut Directory’s Crack at the Food Industry’s Drive to Go Green

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 5, 2010 -- Acknowledging the impact that the restaurant industry has on our environment, CarryOut Directory, a pioneering company in the restaurant listing and on-line ordering field, launched an innovative system that can dramatically reduce the need for clipping paper coupons and getting printed menus from restaurants.

It may seem trivial at first glance, but the sheer volume of paper coupons and printed menus utilized in marketing and advertisement by the restaurant industry is something that definitely may flabbergast anyone. Especially with one study that shows an astounding 51% of American households relying on Sunday newspapers and other traditional printed media to scout for discount coupons.

This is one avenue towards the GO GREEN Movement that has not been explored.

At its inception, KooPons! is an electronic coupon generating system that is expected to address the environmental impact issue while at the same time providing a unique marketing opportunity to restaurants and other food establishments. The system enables the restaurants to generate web-based coupons that can be sent to mobile phones of the customers. As an added feature, the system also allows restaurants to generate and put their menus online through their restaurant listing on CarryOutDirectory.com.

Once signed up, the restaurants can generate e-coupons through KooPons!. They can set the entire e-coupon content, beginning with the actual words to be published, the volume limit, and even the validity date. And each coupon generated will be automatically tagged with a unique 14 digit coupon code for added security and tracking. These can then be published and launched immediately through the internet.

And during the duration of subscription to KooPons!, there is no limit to the number of coupons that the restaurant can publish on-line.

As for downloading the e-coupons to mobile phones, customers will find it to be just a cinch. KooPons! is supported by almost all the mobile carriers, ensuring ease of accessibility. The customers just need to choose the e-coupon they want, enter their mobile number and select their carrier. Actual download takes about 2 seconds!!!

The entire KooPons! System just paints a whole new different scenario of the food industry market. Practically almost everyone who has a mobile phone can be reached! And this now opens the possibility for viral marketing on one end of the spectrum and a conservative, traditional type of coupon marketing on the other extreme end.

This can then save the restaurants money on coupon and menu printing and advertising. And since this does away with the need for print, it has a definite positive impact on environmental drives. So in other words, the restaurants not only save money, but through KooPons!, they also do their part in helping save the environment.
