New Development

Recently Milos and I had a long discussion about what to do next with Tabblr and we decided to change things up. We had several things lined up that we wanted to work on but we decided to put those on hold and concentrate on our monetization model. Tabblr has been free for both users and businesses and has worked out great so far, but we feel we need a way to monetize so that we can continue to grow.

Our monetization model will concentrate on features that will allow Tabblr to cater to the individual needs of businesses. We will have different types of business accounts that take into consideration the # of promotions and users a business has. Accounts for smaller mom-and-pop stores will be different than accounts for mid-sized businesses. And accounts for mid-sized businesses will be different for national brands. In additional to the new account types, we will offer a new rewards program that businesses can use to retain customers as loyal customers. We will be spending a lot of time on the rewards program because we have an extremely addictive hook that we like to introduce.

Over the next few months it might get a bit quiet from us but rest assured we are working hard on implementing our monetization model. Stay tuned.

Scheduling Calendar and Future App Update

Sorry about waiting so long to update the blog, this past month we have been working hard on improving the business side of Tabblr. The biggest noticeable change is the business scheduling calendar which replaces the old scheduling list. The calendar is extremely robust and easy to use. Businesses can now list promotions visually and make changes on-the-fly with drag and drop. Another feature we worked on was on the backend, a communication tool from us to our members. This tool allows us to email users and businesses with ease.

We are now shifting our focus at improving the user's side of Tabblr. Milos and I have discussed many things and we finally settled on the direction we want to go on the apps and webpage. Our first goal is to get users more involved with businesses. And our second goal is to provide more content on the apps so that anyone from the US can jump on Tabblr. We believe we got something at will satisfy both goals, so stay tuned!
