So, you want to advertise with Lightning Bug...
What does Lightning Bug do?
Lighting Bug connects you to new customers that want your products.
Lightning Bug is about precision advertising. Are you tired of throwing away your ad dollars hoping someone, somewhere will see it while possibly bugging your potential new customers rather than engaging them?
You get to fine tune the targeted audience and get your time sensitive product deals in front of new customers - FAST!
- Fill those empty theater seats and barstools!
- Sell that bread while it's still fresh!
Why does it work?
Lightning Bug transforms your advertisement from an annoying interruption into useful, timely information.
Push notifications are the fastest way to show your products to new customers.
But, a phone is an intimate item. You don't want to invade it like U2 on an iPhone.
The only way people will let you send them instant messages is if they trust you. Just like you, our first priority is the customer. So, we've given control to those who receive the advertisements. They have self-selected to use this app and they have stated what they want from it. You just have to give them what they want - great deals in the categories they are interested in.
How does Lightning Bug work?
It's like deal matchmaking.
Customers choose what they want, when they want it, and geographically where they want it from.
You choose the category, demographics, time and geographic area of your audience.
When your preferences match you can send them a great deal in the form of a push notification.
If this sounds good then please download the app and sign up as an advertiser. We will get you approved toot sweet!
We have some strict rules to protect all users of Lightning Bug:
1) No obscene or rude messages.
2) Only give great deals like 50% off or 2 for 1.
3) You can send a time limited deal, but you can't limit the number of items being sold unless you are a venue like a theater with a fixed number of seats. But, you can limit a number of items per customer.
4) Don't advertise off category.
Anyone breaking these rules will be banned and we reserve the right to refuse anyone use of Lightning Bug.
From the creator,
Most advertising tries to get in between you and what you want to do like when you're reading an article and the screen is covered with pop-ups. It's like mosquitos biting you on a summer night - annoying and distracting. But, I grew up catching lightning bugs on summer nights. They added a lot of fun to those twilight hours. I wanted to make advertising like that. Most local advertisers are good people who believe in their product. By giving you the customer power to tell advertisers what and how much you want it turns the advertisements into useful information that saves you both time and money. Our goal is to turn mosquitoes into lighting bugs - something you actually want!
There is a point in a time sensistive product's life where the cost is equal to the best value. Lightning Bug helps people find that point.
