Groupon – LivingSocial – AdJuice

The following is a reprint Daily Finance:

It’s good to be a leading group-buying website these days.

LivingSocial raised $400 million in new financing last week, according to New York Times’ DealBook. The new round values the country’s second largest social coupon website at more than $3 billion.

Just four months ago, Amazon.com (AMZN) led a smaller round at a presumably much lower valuation. This time around Amazon.com is being joined by T. Rowe Price (TROW) and new venture capitalists in bankrolling LivingSocial’s heady expansion efforts. An IPO can’t be too far away.

It’s not just LivingSocial closing in on its Wall Street debut with healthy momentum.

I wasn’t the only one scoffing at Groupon for rebuffing Google’s (GOOG) seemingly ridiculous $6 billion buyout offer late last year. Boy, was I wrong. These days the IPO chatter and secondary market trades find Groupon being pegged with a whopping $25 billion price tag.

Patience has paid off for Facebook, Twitter, Groupon, and any other dot-com darling that has thumbed its nose at buyout offers that seemed generous at the time but too low in retrospect.

The challenge here is for Groupon and LivingSocial to keep growing. Juicy margins and feeble moats have attracted more than just upstarts. AOL’s (AOL) Wow.com and CBS’ (CBS) CBSLocal.com have hopped on the bandwagon in recent months. Travel deals publisher Travelzoo (TZOO) and dining reservations leader OpenTable (OPEN) have seen their shares skyrocket since embracing the pre-paid voucher modelfor discounted offers within their respective niches.

Will crowding lead to confusion or a shakeout? Will the viral nature of hot deals backfire when good offers go bad? Will non-discounting merchants find a way to fight back before they lose more business?

Then we have the biggest question of all for prospective investors: Will LivingSocial and Groupon manage to pull off their IPOs before they peak?

This is a reprint from Mashable:

Half of consumers are using their phones to help make shopping decisions, suggesting that old-style feature phones have a place in the market, according to a new survey.

The report, by Arc Worldwide, based on a survey of 1,800 U.S. mobile phone users and a smaller qualitative study with 30 mobile shoppers, shows 50% of consumers are using their mobile devices while shopping. Since the smartphone penetration rate in the U.S. hasn’t yet hit 50% that means that some consumers are using feature phones.

William Rosen, president and chief creative officer of Arc, puts shoppers in two groups — heavy and light users. The former tend to be wedded to their phones and love experimenting with new apps. The latter view their cellphones as an inferior, on-the-go version of their computer. While many marketers are focusing on the former, Molly Garris, digital strategist at Arc, says that light users currently represent 80% of the mobile shopping population. She suggests the best way to address the market right now is via multi-tiered campaigns aimed at both heavy and light mobile shoppers. Garris says Sephora is a good example of such a marketer; the brand has in-store displays directing shoppers to m.sephora.com, which can be accessed with a feature phone, but Sephora also has a barcode-reading app for those with smartphones.

Otherwise, the report also finds that what is becoming a considered purchase has been redefined. “What’s casual is now more considered,” says Rosen,”and what’s considered is more casual.” For instance, shoppers are finding that bringing their phone with them helps them research big, considered purchases like cars on the fly, but phones can also add a layer of complexity to simple purchases, like coffee. “Nothing more casual than buying a cup of coffee,” says Rosen. “But now Starbucks is using it to broadcast your location and pay for coffee.”

Founder and CEO of KCKC, Robert McNulty, the creator of hugely successful Shopping.com (which brings multiple categories together into one e-commerce framework, and was later sold to Compaq for $220M), highlighted the truly unique market position afforded by virtue of being the first and only company to offer direct sales and marketing of retail stores online.

McNulty asserted that this ability to license “co-branded proprietary online storefronts to independent direct marketers who are able to earn the highest commissions on a full-time or part-time basis” constitutes a level of flexibility and stock selection which is unprecedented.

Each store will have an inventory of millions of items and literally thousands of brand name products which can be moved at category-beating prices while reducing overhead and freeing up resources to be applied to world-class customer service.

KACHING KACHING, Inc. Announces Implementation of Phase II of Our Rollout Strategy to Create the Largest E-Commerce Chain on the Internet

New E-Commerce Concept is Increasing

Brand Name Merchandise Offering Over 2.5 Million Products

HENDERSON, Nev.  (PR Web)  June 15, 2010 –

KACHING KACHING, Inc. (www.kachingkaching.com) (OTC Bulletin Board: KCKC.OB). Announced today it’s Phase II rollout. The Phase I tactical pre-launch of KACHING KACHING’s emergence as the world’s largest online shopping community and retail chain is NOW SUCCESSFULLY completed. The firm has the ability to begin building its national footprint of Independent Store Owners (ISO). Each Independent Store Owner will be offering millions of items and thousands of name brand products at everyday low prices to millions of unaware, but awaiting customers across the nation. Already KACHING KACHING has established Independent Store Owners in nearly half of the States around the country.

Phase II will integrate KACHING KACHING’s tier 1 merchandise partners into its co-branded proprietary online storefronts, allowing KACHING KACHING to maximize the viral aspects of the Internet. As we roll out our retail chain of online stores, we will provide a totally new shopping experience for both Independent Store Owners and the mass market consumer. Think of a more enjoyable shopping experience for both you and your friends at say, Amazon.com with everyone receiving upwards of 10% of the purchase price back in commission. KACHING KACHING is destined to be a new category killer within the already prospering e-commerce segment, which last year alone grossed over $170 billion in online sales. KACHING KACHING’s product categories match those of today’s largest e-tailers. From popular athletic shoes to Lancôme skincare for men and women, to bed and bath accessories and electronics, we’ll have everything you’ll need to be on the cutting edge electronically, while being on trend and in style. With the popularity of the Internet, and its fluid development and technology, the world is changing rapidly. First there was Yahoo, and then came Google. There was MySpace and then Facebook. There was Blockbuster and then Netflix came on the scene. Today it’s Amazon, but tomorrow it will be KACHING KACHING! By utilizing the latest technology, tier 1 merchandise partners, and the most unique customer acquisition model ever introduced in the e-commerce business landscape, KACHING KACHINGâ’s growth may be unprecedented. To support its successful Independent Store Owners, KACHING KACHING will be providing each with an Apple iPhone 4, so that successful strategies can be shared immediately amongst each ISO using what is called FaceTime. FaceTime is an exclusive Apple technology that allows immediate face to face real time video, for training and sharing of the KACHING KACHING online business opportunity.

Beyond Commerce, Inc. (www.beyondcommerce.com) (OTC: BYOC.OB) is a significant shareholder of KACHING KACHING, Inc. with ownership of over 10.5 million shares.
