New post on Zavee Thinking from Ron Stack, COO, introducing Zavee's first Featured Merchants
It doesn’t seem very long ago that Zavee existed solely in our developer’s test environment. But we have been up and running for a while now, working out the inevitable kinks and fixing the kinds of “what were we thinking?” mistakes that customers can spot in a heartbeat.
One of the things that is working well is our merchant search capability. Every Zavee user – merchant, shopper and cause – is precisely geo-located, so Zavee can center a search on a specific shopper and display the merchants within a true radius. This capability lets us do a lot of interesting things. One thing we can do is promote merchants to shoppers based on distance.
