About MyVenueNow
MyVenueNow was started because we were noticing layoffs, home foreclosures and business closings in our communities. This is happening throughout the United States so we decided to do something about it!
MyVenueNow is a place where people (Peers) can find businesses (Venues) and share their thoughts and experiences with other peers, therefore promoting businesses and helping the economy. It is a place where people can connect with their peers and with the businesses they love. Businesses are listed in our directory and have the opportunity to control their own profile, showcasing their business and interacting with their customers.
MyVenueNow automates business and customer interaction increasing word of mouth advertising. This is done by allowing you "peer" to set businesses as a favorite in your "Peer" profile and through the "Peer Pressure" area in your "Peer" profile showing your peer's favorite businesses. Venue preferences in your "Peer" profile searches our database for businesses that match your preferences and allows you to see them in your profile. This promotes finding new businesses in your own community.
Below is the MyVenueNow team. These individuals are diverse in their careers and make just the right mix for a steady business team that has everyday real world experience. They definitely do not hold back and bring everything to the table. We all grew up together and will continue to grow together through our friendship, our company and our economy by helping to bring businesses and peers together throughout the United States. Our belief is that MyVenueNow can change how businesses interact with their customers to maximize visibility and profitability by getting involved and taking control of their own advertising.
