This is an app that allows businesses in a specific area to be found by consumers through a geo-located Google map and a categorized directory. The map shows the location of all businesses in the area as indicated by gray markers. The businesses who chose to pay for a sponsorship within the app will have their business logo on the marker within the map. When the map marker is clicked on, the user of the app is taken to the businesses profile page where the user can find important business contact information and a brief summary of who the business is and what they provide. The business is also able to list time sensitive information on deals or specials they are offering customers on their profile page within the app. These deals will scroll at the bottom of the home screen of the app, alternating with other businesses who are paid sponsors. The user can take advantage of the offers at the paid sponsor's business location by showing the app on their phone. The home screen of the app also has larger paid sponsors links to their websites. The user of the app can link their social media apps to the social media hub section on the home screen, as well as mainstream media links on the mainstream media hub. This will make it convenient for the user to find local businesses and national information all in one place.
