BURLINGTON, Mass., Feb. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Endurance
International Group (NASDAQ: EIGI), a leading provider of
cloud-based platform solutions to help small and medium-sized
businesses succeed online, today announced the launch of Business
On Tapp, a free mobile application that delivers daily insights and
actionable tips to help small business owners succeed both online
and offline. The app features unique editorial content as well as
interactive features that allow small business owners to connect
with their peers to share advice and best practices. Business on
Tapp is free to use and download in the iTunes and Google Play
stores. To date, more than 15,000 people have downloaded the
app.
"For a small business owner, running your business is demanding
enough. It can be doubly hard to keep up with new technology and
trends in a rapidly changing business landscape," said Endurance
CEO Hari Ravichandran. "That's why we developed Business On
Tapp – to provide small business owners with the critical
information they need to succeed. We want to empower small
businesses to grow, by creating a peer community to share best
practices and providing them with mobile access to expert
information.
"No one should fall victim to bad business advice. We want small
businesses to know that they are not alone. We're excited to invite
entrepreneurs to tap into the power of millions of businesses for
answers, insights, and connections," said Ravichandran.
The Business on Tapp app features:
- Business Card Swap: The app's community building
function is powered by a geo-located mobile business card that
allows small business owners to connect with each other based on
location. Small business owners can create their own business
cards, then use them for in-app introductions to like-minded
entrepreneurs, or share via social media, SMS or email from their
mobile devices.
- Ask An Expert: Users can submit questions directly
through the app and get rapid responses from Business on Tapp's
expert and peer community.
- Polls and Market Insights: Business on Tapp users can
participate in quick polls and also have access to information on
the latest marketplace trends.
- Unique Editorial Content: Written and researched by a
team of experienced journalists, Business on Tapp users will have
access to original content that includes feature profiles and news
stories on leadership, technology, finance and growth strategies.
The content comes in the form of short "cards" and videos, which
can typically be digested in under two minutes.
Business on Tapp is run by a world-class editorial team led by
Editor-At-Large Alexandra Kirkman. Ms. Kirkman is supported by a
seasoned team of journalists who have written for top publications
including Inc., TIME, Wired, MSNBC, and The
New York Times. Ms. Kirkman began
her journalism career as an international reporter for
Forbes, traveling the globe to write about some of the
world's most influential business leaders. She continues to be a
regular contributor to Forbes.com, and has been published in a wide
range of nationally recognized outlets
including Fortune.
"We've drawn a roadmap-on-the-run for busy entrepreneurs,
offering game-changing insights, trends and how-tos," said Kirkman.
"Our goal is to raise your business game instantly every time you
tap in."
