STOWE, Vt., Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Barcle.com is being introduced as the Ground Breaking Pricing Tool for Shoppers, which allows a consumer to walk up to a product in a store and instantly be told whether it is the lowest price anywhere. If it isn't, the Shopper can purchase it right away from the lowest price store directly from their Cell Phone's Web Application with a single press of a button. "With our new patent pending technology," said EGB, Huron PM's President, "we can get the Consumer the best price while saving them time and the expensive gasoline they would have otherwise used trying to find the price they really wanted." Huron's affiliation with over 900 Merchants covering over 20,000 brands and over 10,000,000 products combined with their patented Barcle.com Search Engines are uniquely suited to helping the shopper in pursuit of the best price.
Can User-Selected Advertising Improve Response Rates?
Seeking to accommodate this advertiser, AWS developed a prototype platform, which eventually morphed into the stand-alone SponsorSelect product. SponsorSelect views itself more as search marketing than typical online display advertising, but with greater branding capabilities and, ultimately, fewer inventory limitations than search. Like search, SponsorSelect operates on a dynamic CPC (define) pay-for-position basis with positioning also affected by ad yield. Although SponsorSelect has been used on WeatherBug for the past five years, SponsorSelect began recruiting publishers last year to build out a network into which the technology was integrated. SponsorSelect shares revenue with its publishers who, they say, are attracted by a higher eCPM than any other advertising opportunities out there (SponsorSelect says the publishers CPMs average $100 gross).
