How a B2B business app is trying to be the Whatsapp for local businesses

In today's fast growing world, there are many start ups which are connecting local businesses and services to customers in innovative ways and providing different services to ease the burden of customers. One such app is HeyBiz, with which a small business can stop worrying about expensive marketing tactics or large teams to handle their marketing strategies.

“We have added an exclusive feature in the app called Expert Advice. We have grouped a team of experts from different niches on a mobile platform. These experts are from vastly varied domains that include healthcare, fitness, astrologers, makeup artists, gadget and gizmos, gift options, jobs and real estate consultants.

HeyBiz is a messaging and engaging mobile application for users and businesses. Users can connect, follow, chat, and get their queries answered from nearby businesses or services without sharing their mobile number. On the other hand, business owners have a powerful tool to create and maintain a mini business profile on their smartphones. They can update users with latest upcoming sales, promotions or new service launches using just a few clicks. It is an innovative way to do Sales-Marketing-Support (SMS) of business on smartphone anytime and anywhere.

Local businesses still do pamphlets and small news paper ads as they don’t have a ready platform where they can advertise locally and interact with users. The USP of HeyBiz is local commerce. It allows business owners to list their business profiles nicely within a couple of minutes, and makes it ready to interact with local users on mobile and on chat. They can reach to their followers but keep updating upcoming sales and promotions. HeyBiz also helps them to reach out to their target audience based on their location.

Bhartesh Chhibbar, Founder, HeyBiz says, “We have added an exclusive feature in the app called Expert Advice. We have grouped a team of experts from different niches on a mobile platform. These experts are from vastly varied domains that include healthcare, fitness, astrologers, makeup artists, gadget and gizmos, gift options, jobs and real estate consultants. Not just that, it allows the users to chat directly with the experts in a real time conversation, ask questions, and get opinions and advice. Based on the need of user, our experts connect with the right business in real time.”

Rewards is another interesting feature that has now been added to the app. The users can earn reward points by sharing the app with friends and family, by following their nearby businesses on HeyBiz, by doing a deal with any business on HeyBiz and by referring their favorite local business to HeyBiz.

HeyBiz Messenger App is getting very good response from the businesses. Chhibbar adds, “We have seen 85% adoption rate of businesses. Along with local businesses we have seen great interest from brands like ApnaGhar, Bonton Holidays, Snap Fitness, Eco-Rent-A-Car Little Millennium, Axis Dental, etc, and enjoying the benefit of mobile presence and reaching out to customers. We are growing region wise as our first target is Delhi local market and users around the market.”
Chhibbar concludes, “We want to be Whatsapp for local businesses. For any businesses interaction, users and businesses use HeyBiz to interact without sharing personal contacts unless it is needed. Local business owner/service provider list their business, HeyBiz verified and understand their business model and help them in promotion.” HeyBiz is a free mobile application available on Android and IOS platforms.
