Anthill launches group buying site for SMEs
Anthill, the online publisher for SMES, has ventured into the group buying space with the launch of Antmart.
James Tuckerman, who founded Anthill in 2003, told Mumbrella that although collective buying is “a lot more complex” in the business space, there has been considerable interest in the new platform since testing it last week [Friday February 25th].
“Most group buying sites are selling restaurants meals. We are selling products and services for fast growing businesses. But it is a logical extension of our brand. We tested Antmart with 500 users and pulled in 1000 users through visitor referals,” he said.
Great move by Anthill by going into a different niche with Group Buying. As a small business owner myself I look forward towards their deals.
