Other Decks in Business

Transcript

  1. What we are building is a meeting ground for people,

    local business and services in a city- like an online mall. We intend to become a portal that will be a one- window-shop for all your needs in a city - information on businesses and professionals, job openings, events and happenings, movies updates, deals and discounts, buy and sell things, report a local issue and fight for the cause and showcase talents within the city. We want to be the one website people will rely on to get anything done in their city
  2. FIND Businesses Professionals Jobs Places Programs News Movies BUY+SELL Deals

    / Offers Coupons Local Products DISCUSS Local Issues Seek Help Meetups
  3. ADVANTAGES OF BEING A ‘MULTIPLEX’? • Single sign-in advantage -

    Every site will act as a traffic generator for all other sites. • Multiple sources of income - From ads and simple campaigns to online stores and premium listings, money is set to come in for the website . One or the other section is sure to bring us profit. • Unlimited opportunities of business - Even if one segment fails to generate enough income, we can survive with other sections. We have room to experiment and bring on new ideas. • Power of going super-local, power of being a Media. - Everyone wants to ‘partner’ with us, already. From Events and Programs to Banks, Builders, Restaurants, Showrooms and Movies
  4. • Over crowded/ugly business listing websites with unreliable/ outdated information

    • Lack of a reliable medium to find and track every-day events in city • No reliable sources to find a service provider, skilled labors and other professionals in the city (eg: electricians, doctors, advocates) • Anytime, anywhere news & information availability (eg: which movie playing where? + review + location)
  5. • Local shops losing business due to online shopping sites

    • New shops finding it hard to reach customers with traditional marketing • Lack of a platform to report a local issue, gather support and fight for the cause (eg: bad roads, water issues, waste management) • Lack of a platform which people can rely on to seek any help in a city (eg: health issues, getting loans, buying a house, baby sitting etc)
  6. • If we build a website with all the information

    people will need in a city and give them a great UI to access it, they will love to use it and contribute for its growth. • The local shops, dealers and product manufacturers are finding it difficult to compete with their online counterparts. Everyone want to start selling online but the big investment involved and lack of exposure to technology holds them back. Giving them a space in our website to sell their stuff will be a great help for them; also a good source of revenue for us. • Already over 58% of India's Internet users access the internet via Mobile Devices - it’s a big market. And we are already there with our fully responsive user interface.
  7. • Our location based native mobile app will help people

    to interact with the website in different ways like find things around, report local issues on the go and order things from local shops to pickup. • Online purchase from app - example: you are looking to buy a shirt, you search for shirts in EnteCity app, you get results of the shops that sell shirts around you with geolocation. You find a shirt you liked in one of those shop which has an online rack in EnteCity. You can order for that shirt right away. Later you can go pickup the shirt or get it delivered to where you are located. • Quality of content and ease of use are our primary mantras
  8. Find an Electrician Find a Used-Car Dealer Find a Room

    Buy a Mobile Get Events Alerts Read City News Find a Job in City Get Deals Alert Happenings in and around city Movies Now Playing Help Lines Movie Reviews and Updates Health Tips and Advices Find a Doctor or Get a Massage!
