Local tech Startup Company JumpOnIt Mobile Deals set as the "Drop the Puck" sponsor this season for the Quad City Mallards hockey team.
QUAD CITIES, Illinois/Iowa - Oct. 22, 2015 - The Quad City Mallards opening games are this weekend, and local tech startup company JumpOnIt Mobile Deals will be taking part in the excitement. JumpOnIt Mobile Deals is a fresh new company based in Davenport, Iowa that sends offers via text message for local Quad Cities businesses.
On Monday (October 19) the Quad City Mallards sent out their first JumpOnIt offer to the Quad Cities database. Thousands of subscribers received a deal for "Buy One, Get One Free" tickets, which are good for Saturday, 10/24 and Sunday, 10/25 games.
There's a bonus attached as well. When a JumpOnIt Mobile Deals subscriber receives their text message offers (to their smartphone), they are able to click on the link within the text message thread. The offer will open in the users' web browser, and from there the offer can be shared via text, Twitter or Facebook.
When a user shares their offer to a new friend (and the friend accepts it), they receive a text message with a bonus offer. The Quad City Mallards' bonus offer is two free tickets to any Sunday game, which can be used anytime throughout the season.
JumpOnIt Mobile Deals is stepping into the local spotlight as they gain new partnerships with area businesses and local sports teams. The relationship with the Quad City Mallards is not the first area sports team to partner with JumpOnIt Mobile Deals. During the summer, JumpOnIt Mobile Deals had a strong presence at the Quad City River Bandits games and sent out several offers for ticket discounts. As the JumpOnIt database grows, more and more Quad Cities residents continue to save money and learn about area events by receiving a simple text message.
As the "Drop the Puck" sponsor for the Quad City Mallards, JumpOnIt Mobile Deals will be announced each game before the puck drops. Mallards fans will be reminded to text "JumpOnQC" to "88678" in order to receive offers from local businesses - including Quad City Mallards ticket discounts throughout the hockey season.
