vFlyer Rolls out Mobile Version of Classified-Ad Service

vFlyer said it is "mobilizing" online sellers with the launch of vFlyer Mobile. The company provides a system for creating managing and submitting listings to online classified ad sites. Now vFlyer Mobile enables business account users with a Web-enabled mobile device to access, view and distribute their flyers to prospective buyers via SMS or email messages. All of the important details about goods or services that are for sale, including photos, pricing, maps and directions, contact information and more, can be quickly and easily sent to recipients, who can then access and view goods and services for sale on any Web-enabled mobile device.

vFlyer said its new mobile features will benefit both online sellers and buyers in the following ways:

  • Access: vFlyer users can access their vFlyer accounts through their mobile phones to conveniently view SMS and email flyers.
  • Distribution: vFlyer business subscribers can quickly distribute their flyers to prospective customers using SMS or email messages.
  • Reach: When vFlyer users distribute mobile flyers, prospective buyers, who are on the road away from their computers, can now easily access flyers and view pictures, descriptions and contact information for products and services being sold, as well get maps, directions or even place calls to a seller.
  • Reports: vFlyer users can also track flyer page views, visits and prospective buyers on their mobile device.

vFlyer CEO Aaron Sperling said, "A growing number of online sellers, such as realtors and other sales professionals, use mobile Internet-enabled devices, such as Blackberrys and Treos, to conduct their business. As mobile adoption continues to grow, vFlyer is committed to helping sellers connect with clients or prospective buyers - even when they are away from their offices or computers."

vFlyer has coupled its "create once and post everywhere" capabilities with widget and RSS-based distribution to relevant blogs, websites and classified ad marketplaces such as Google Base, Oodle, Vast, eBay and Trulia. The company provides a free ad-supported offering as well as several subscription plans (http://www.vflyer.com/main/Pricing.jsp).
