Q & A

What is GoStPete.com?

GoStPete.com is the first of a kind, laser pointed website specifically designed for every person in the St. Pete Beach Area.

How are these  coupons different?

A business can change its coupon every week at www.GoStPete.com.  Printed coupons take from 2-6 weeks to process. With GoStPete.com, you can have a coupon in the morning and change it in the afternoon.

I have gotten along fine without digital coupons so why should I care?

The world is changing and so should business. We have a 15 minute and 45 minute presentation containing research Fortune 500 companies have access and are using. The data shows in order to attract new clients and keep others coming back in the current market, a businesses that offers an incentive has a better chance of gaining that business than one that does not. The big companies know this. We are educating smaller companies about this and a whole lot more. Additionally, digital coupons are quickly becoming THE way for people to get coupons. For one, they can get them on their phone. That adds a new dimension in this fast changing world.

Any examples of digital advances?

Pizza Hut’s corporate office launched an iPhone application or APP in August. Within three months, they had sales of $1 million.  Do you think local Palm Harbor pizza places have iPhone apps? No. That is money they not only lost. It is money they don’t even have access.  The move is to digital and digital couponing and those not offering it could see revenue drops in favor of those that do.

So how do I get started?

It’s simple. Email fun@GoStPete.com and provide a high resolution company logo, a coupon and about 50 words of a description. We are offering this FREE to 77 businesses until the first of the year.

Why do links currently go to websites and not coupons?

We first wanted to introduce our website. Now we are in the process of converting links from websites to coupons. If you click on the ATA Martial Arts, you will see an example of what we are asking.

If the site is FREE, how do you make money?

We have Strategy Clubs ($200 a month) and Partnerships ($1,000 a month). In both we work with our clients to develop strategies capitalizing on the changing world we find ourselves. We cannot provide this to every business in Palm Harbor, but we do plan to partner with 77. These 77 will have access to this website and the marketing strategy behind it.

How do consumers know to visit GoStPete.com?

We have a widespread marketing strategy planned. It includes bringing awareness through signage on street corners, near schools, and offering prizes to consumers.

What is the Website philosophy?

We want to provide a shot-in-the-arm to businesses and rewards for consumers. Plus, with prizes and surprises, buzz will be created and we plan to have a lot of fun and provide our clients with a lot of fun and new business.
