WOMCONNECT

WOMConnect enables you to identify and obtain recommendations from your trusted social network on products and services supplied by local businesses.

It provides users with more relevant, trusted results when looking for a product or service.

It provides businesses with more leads, especially in the support of local small businesses.


WOMConnect takes the guesswork out of purchasing a product or service. You can quickly identify who of your connections has used it, what they think of it, who can provide it and who can get you a special price!

What differentiates WOMConnect from a regular search engine, such as Google?

• Results are highly relevant, prioritised by the users trusted connections
• Only products and services, relevant to a seekers location are displayed in results
• Results cannot be optimised or manipulated to appear higher – ranking is prioritised by connection


A short example:

Without WOMConnect:

John needs a plumber. Unfortunately, John doesn’t have any friends or business associates that are plumbers, to his knowledge. He accesses google and enters ‘plumber’ as his search criteria and hopes that the businesses displayed in the top results provide a good service, are trustworthy and will not overcharge. Unfortunately, the top results are often determined by SEO methods that have nothing to do with the metrics that John cares about when selecting a plumber. The results are also geared to websites, not necessarily to product or service providers.

With WOMConnect:

John needs a plumber. Unfortunately, John doesn’t have any friends or business associates that are plumbers, to his knowledge. He accesses WOMConnect and enters ‘plumber’ as his search criteria. Search results are displayed based on who he knows (and who they know) that provide plumbing services, endorse plumbing services and/or can provide special pricing for plumbing services. John can then real-time message the relevant connection with a query, message the business with a query or access the business profile for more information and contact details.

Using WOMConnect, John discovers that his friend Mary was happy with a plumber that she used recently. John can immediately see Mary’s endorsement, message her with any questions or obtain further info on her experience before contacting the plumber. He can also view the plumbers profile page and see other endorsements they have received, including from within his connections.

John can also see that his work colleague Mark has a connection that provides plumbing services. John can message Mark to ask for an introduction, or perhaps special pricing.
