BOSTON, MA--(Marketwire - Jul 19, 2011) - Mobiquity (www.mobiquityinc.com), a professional services firm specializing in the design, build and deployment of enterprise-class mobile solutions, today announced it has been selected by BiddingForGood, the leading charitable e-commerce platform connecting consumers to thousands of nonprofit fundraising auctions, to define and develop mobile strategies that support its ongoing business and revenue growth.
"Mobile's unprecedented reach and innovative functionality provides an unbeatable one-two punch for organizations that are thinking strategically about how they can transform business processes and create competitive advantage," said Bill Seibel, co-founder and CEO of Mobiquity. "Through the power of mobile, companies like BiddingForGood are reinventing the way organizations deliver e-commerce to customers -- freeing them from the limitations of traditional computing into something that's more immediate, powerful and relevant than ever before."
Mobiquity will work with BiddingForGood to design and develop a mobile application that extends the organization's charitable auction services to customers' iPhones. By mobilizing the auction functionalities, BiddingForGood users can bid more frequently and on more items -- anywhere, and at anytime -- optimizing the overall auction experience while also further supporting the success of participating charity organizations' fundraising activities.
"BiddingForGood knows one of the ways to increase the success of our auctions is by making the bid process as easy and seamless as possible for consumers," said Jon Carson, CEO of BiddingForGood. Carson adds, "Mobile has enormous potential as a strategy for both improving our users' experience and enabling us to continue to grow our company's leadership position. We selected Mobiquity as our mobile partner because they demonstrated a compelling vision for the role mobile will play in e-commerce as well as the experienced team we knew could deliver on that vision."
