“Busi Search” (Pronounced “Busy Search”)
Busi Search is an app that allows people to search for nearby businesses and would direct them to their websites. Paid users would have the ability to search geographical areas for goods and services people are searching for. This is done by looking through searches on Busi Search and social media, then analyzing what people in the area are looking for that isn’t currently there. A user would be able to search an area for a list of the goods and services people are missing the most or a specific business type. Alternatively a user would also be able to search a business type and the app would locate an area where people are looking for that business. There would be three tiers of access. A Free user would be able to use the app to search for local businesses. A tier two user would be able to access data gathered by searches made in the app. A tier three user would have access to all the data gathered by the app as well as data gathered by social media. Additional data would be purchased from Google. Users would pay a monthly fee based on their tier.
Our targeted market segments for paid access would be primarily Entrepreneurs, and Non-Profit Organizations. Our secondary markets for paid access would be Larger Corporations and Politicians.
