Unlike other shopping search engines, Krillion was built with the multi-channel retailer in mind

We work closely with national and regional retailers and are uniquely positioned to facilitate showrooming that drive in-store sales. We like to call that local showrooming. We’ve been investing heavily to expand the number of retail locations and product covered and have made terrific progress during the second half, tripling the number of retail locations to over 85,000 nationwide.
 

"Our recent deal with one of the three major search engines is an example of this and we believe we’ve only just begun to scratch the surface."

"Our team has also been working very hard on our first mobile local shopping app which is intended to showcase our shopping content. We expect to release that later this quarter. Once that’s completed, we plan to make our real-time shopping content available for distribution across our existing publisher network and we certainly look forward to announcing many new distribution deals in 2014, dramatically expanding our online footprint, a KPI for our business."

Alibaba Builds a 'Black Friday' for China

It Is the Biggest Online Shopping Day in the World and It Is in China, Not the U.S.

In the U.S., it takes Thanksgiving, plus the approach of the year-end holidays, to trigger the biggest shopping weekend of the year. In China, all it takes is a sale by Alibaba.

Every Nov. 11, millions of Chinese shoppers flock to the e-commerce websites operated by Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. They spend more on those sites during that one day of discounts than Americans do on all online retailers on Black Friday and Cyber Monday combined.

As Alibaba plans for what could be the biggest technology IPO since Facebook Inc., FB +0.04% it is recognized as the dominant player in China's surging e-commerce industry. But the 14-year-old company, founded by a former English teacher in Hangzhou, is hard to categorize. While it is often called the Amazon of China, Alibaba is more a blend of eBay Inc., EBAY -0.53% its PayPal financial arm, and Google Inc. GOOG -0.16%

By one measure, Alibaba is the world's largest e-commerce platform: The total volume of merchandise handled last year by Taobao and Tmall, the company's two main shopping sites, topped one trillion yuan ($160 billion), larger than last year's totals for Amazon.com and eBay combined.

Why the Alibaba IPO is more important than Twitter's

Andrew Harrer

On Friday, Twitter's management team goes on the road to promote its highly anticipated Nov. 15 listing on the New York Stock Exchange. But the 8-year-old Internet messaging company's long-awaited IPO is already being overshadowed by a bigger public offering that hasn't yet been formally announced.

Sometime after Twitter's moment in the Wall Street spotlight,it's expected billionaire Jack Ma will step to the podium in New York to ring the bell heralding his Alibaba Group Holding's listing in New York, the biggest U.S. IPO for a Chinese technology company, and one that dwarfs Twitter in size, revenue—and significance. "Alibaba is a one-time thing," said Benjamin Joffe, an angel investor and founder of Asia-focused consultancy Plus8Star in Beijing. "How often do you list a $100 billion company?"

Media Firm Nears Industry Top After Hard Days; Local Corp enjoys success, eyes more growth

Monday, November 11, 2013 (OCBJ)
Local Corp. bills itself as the “No. 2” player in the online directory marketplace, second only to Atlanta-based YP Intellectual Property LLC, which runs Yellowpages.
But the road to the top was anything but smooth for the Irvine-based digital media company, which connects local businesses with online consumers.
“It wasn’t all butterflies and rainbows for us,” said Heath Clarke, Local Corp.’s chairman and chief executive, referring to the company’s early years. “We actually had a tough period of time when we didn’t know whether the company was going to make it. But we did believe in what we were doing, and we kept at it, no matter what.”
Read the complete text in the Orange County Business Journal  

"We call this the last mile of shopping data what’s in-store right now and at what price. When a consumer does that showrooming search for a 70-inch Vizio model X, Y, Z, we want to be able to tell them that it’s available in the store 2.1 miles up the road for $300 less and here is the map to get there."
 

Erachtens das Fünffache der momentan idiotisch niedrigen Bewertung von 40 Millionen wert, wenn man Competitors heranzieht - und das ist in diesem Vergleich noch eine Untergrenze.

What is the value of 27.2 million yearly revenues - Ex TAC by yearly growth-rates bigger 100%?
Network Rev- Ex TAC of 6.8 million = 27.2 million on a yearly base.

And now my question to you: What is the value of 27.2 million yearly revenues - Ex TAC?

And I add "with such a growth-trend" in the last five quarters:
$ in millions
Q3-12: 2.1
Q4-12: 2.9
Q1-13: 3.9
Q2-13: 4.8
Q3-13: 6.8

"Network revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, increased 193.1% and 159.0%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012. The increase is primarily due to an increase in the number of network partner websites."

Growth of the revenues of the network-division of Local Corp (now 61% of all revenues of Local Corp) beats the growth-rates of the revenues of Twitter and Yelp:

Revenues of the Network-Division of Local Corp:
Q3-12 5.0 million
Q4-12: 7.6 million
Q1-13: 8.3 million
Q2-13: 11.6 million
Q3-13: 14.5 million  

Our network generates about 50% gross margin and it’s our most profitable business. So growing network revenues is the core objective this year. We have too many network products the hosted business directory solution and a XML feed product. We achieve growth by adding more partner sites, by growing monetization of those sites and by adding new products to each site. So how is our network doing?

Mobile Shopping Research Jumps To 73%, Purchases Follow

Thursday, October 03, 2013 (Media Post)

by Laurie Sullivan, Sep 30, 2013, 7:46 PM

Mobile devices are turning into time-saving search tools. In fact, 56% said they like the ability to search and sort quickly, 49% can easily find and assess return policies, and 49% locate ratings and reviews, according to the study. It's one thing to research whether CVS carries L'Oreal, and another to determine which 42-inch TV to buy.

Product shopping research via smartphone rose from 34% in 2012 to 73% in 2013, per the Local study conducted by the e-tailing group. It explores shopping trends and dependence on resources. It also analyzes the role of smartphones for consumers, and provides insights on how marketers can drive sales, as consumers make purchase decisions about buying from local companies and nearby stores.

Supporting the trend, Local will release by the end of this year an iOS 7 shopping app powered by Krillion data, said Michael Sawtell, president and COO of Local, the parent company. The app will "ping" consumers based on pre-programmed discount alerts for local stores such as when the Bosch dishwasher goes on sale at a local retailer. Voice technology to pull the data will follow.
 

Gross Margin improved from 27.4% in Q2/13 to 30.9 in Q3/13 - a big prorgress in only three months

Comparing our COGS and operating expenses to the prior quarter, Q3 cost of revenue as a percent of revenues decreased from last quarter resulting in improved gross margin percentage from 27.4% to 30.9%.
