Biz Chat 018 Go Native is Redefining What It Means to Shop Local

We've Launched Alabama's First Statewide Business focused Twitter Chat - #BizChatAL  This week we are honored to chat with @JordanDoufexis from @nativerewards to learn how their new app is redefining #shopLocal in rural Alabama. #BizChatAL

With our focus being rural Alabama, it comes down to letting Merchants provide the community with services they’ve never had before, which is same day delivery for retail and a variety of restaurants offering delivery for lunch. What’s exciting is that we aren’t just selling a concept anymore. We’ve got real results from local business. 1500 new app downloads and delivery to over 400 people in the month of April alone. #BizChatAL

We provide a user base of thousands of local shoppers, software/tech that is NOT outrageously expensive for any single business to utilize, and we provide the delivery drivers & customer support 24/7. #BizChatAL

We provide a market, software, delivery and support through our app. But, the Chamber knows the needs of Jackson County better than we ever could. We’re the perfect match bc our mission is the promotion of shop local, anywhere the app is adopted. #BizChatAL

We started by delivering food...and everyone eats! Now that same mass of users will have access to what local retailers have to offer bc everything takes place in the same app. As we continue to develop the app and bring Professional Services and Workforce Development, and Tourism onboard, it will truly be the engine of the local economy. All of those users in one place, no matter what they’re looking for. #BizChatAL

Time, Convenience, and Price are what shoppers care about and in that order. Our same day retail delivery service can’t be matched by @amazon in rural America. #BizChatAL

We’ve been working on this concept for 4 years. We’ve tried to simplify our tech so that every Mom & Pop can use this platform. Then it’s about delivery and efficiency with no friction. No hassle. And all local! #BizChatAL

Thank you, Jordan!
