In a recent ICOM survey of U.S. shoppers, 77% of the respondents in the 18-34 age group see their coupon use increasing if they could use some form of paperless coupon technology … and 63% of those 35-54 said paperless would increase their usage.
The mobile phone is one of the best ways to reach the elusive set of 18-34 year-old adults who have disposable income to spend, brands with which to affiliate, but neither the time nor interest to read newspapers or watch scheduled television.
San Jose-based Cellfire has been working hard for over five years to meet that demand. Cellfire is the only nationwide discount offer service, enabling consumers to conveniently receive and retain savings right on their mobile phones. Today, 68% of Cellfire users are between the age of 18-34, and 27% are over 35.
Currently they offer coupons for popular retailers such as Hollywood Video, Hardee’s, Domino’s Pizza, T.G.I. Friday’s, Peet’s Coffee, 1-800-flowers.com, Omaha Steaks, North Beach Pizza, Pizz’a Chicago and more directly to your cell phone. The service is available on all major cell carriers.
