Offer Grapevine, is the world's first example of a social network combining with an affinity group. The fast growth of this site is attributed to its “One Click” affiliate builder system that makes it possible for anyone to build a large personal buying network—called a “Grapevine”. Word of mouth promotion is still the… (more) most effective means of advertising as everyone knows. Offer Grapevine has coupled this fact with the power of internet social networks to develop a truly explosive viral marketing system.
- 81% of all internet users do research on the internet before making an online purchase.
- 43% of internet users report significant frustration in finding adequate information about certain offers.
- 66% of internet users have purchased products online but a large percentage is concerned about the security of buying.
Online shopping grew 500% from 2000 to 2007 exceeding 125 billion dollars in annual sales.
Offer Grapevine has placed hundreds of major consumer and B2B companies under one internet roof so that potential customers can easily locate any type of product or service imaginable. The system also pays people to recommend other people to use the site. This is known as “building one’s Grapevine”. (less)
