Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) March 28, 2012

Perfect Franchises is debuting its new website to help new and experienced investors find the perfect franchise business opportunity. The new design provides a rich franchise shopping experience for people looking to buy a franchise. It has more specific information than many franchise websites offer, including franchise backgrounds, financials and even training info that prospects can easily scroll to learn more about.

“Our new website design makes it easier for prospects to find the perfect franchise today,” says Caleb Hanson, Lead Web Designer for the project. “We’ve also included a new Facebook Fan Page featuring videos and podcasts. It’s a launching pad to the main site. In the works as well is a blog which will break in a couple of weeks.”

“We’re very excited by the response the new site is receiving,” states Terry Yormark CEO of Perfect Franchises. Our partners really like it too".

“It’s more alive than many sites I’ve seen. Lots of personality.”, according to Lynn Patrick SVP of Franchise Sales at American Business Opportunities Inc.

Rather than sell the concept of franchising itself, Perfect Franchises prefers to focus on select franchise business opportunities that respect its high standards. With more and more business concepts entering the marketplace today it can be overwhelming and intimidating for investors.

Perfect Franchises is a national and global franchise brokerage and representation firm. It’s a one-stop resource for investors interested in buying a single or multi-unit franchise.

“We’ve had clients come back in as short a time as six months and add another unit to their investment package.” says Yormark.

Perfect Franchises LLC is riding the wave of increased demand for entrepreneurship in an economy that is bringing forth more people who want the stability and security of business ownership with a proven business model. Plans for the remainder of 2012 call for the addition of a social marketing division to help its franchise partners branding efforts and an expansion of their International Division.

IBM Debuts New Analytics Appliance to Help Retailers Transform Big Data Into Business Opportunities - Businessweek

ARMONK, N.Y., Jan. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced a new analytics appliance that analyzes up to petabytes of big data including consumer sales data and online shopping trends to help retailers gain actionable insight on buying patterns.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20090416/IBMLOGO)

The new appliance helps retailers deliver Smarter Commerce by using analytics to better understand buying patterns across multiple channels, and build stronger, more profitable customer relationships. Clients can now run complex, real-time analytics in a matter of seconds to improve the customer experience, shift marketing campaigns on the fly and boost sales.

In today's digitally transformed marketplace, consumers are increasingly empowered with information on products and services and ways to make competitive purchases, creating a hyper competitive marketplace for retailers. According to IBM, 70 percent of a customer's first interaction with a product or service takes place online, placing more importance on the digital consumer experience.

Through its Smarter Commerce initiative, IBM is defining and leading a new market that it estimates will grow to a $20 billion opportunity in software alone this year, driven by the demands of rapidly shifting customer buying patterns in the era of mobile and social networks. The new appliance is a part of IBM's Smarter Commerce initiative as it can help retailers deepen relationships with consumers and create a sense of brand intimacy.

Retailers need to understand their customers from browsing through purchase and across all channels in order to be more competitive. Tapping into analytics is the key to converting petabytes of customer data into actionable insight, revealing their needs and wants, and driving smarter decision-making across a retailer's organization.

The new IBM Netezza Customer Intelligence Appliance addresses these issues by providing retailers with big data analytics that allows them to analyze all customer interactions within their brand. A combined offering from IBM and business partner Aginity, and Cognos software, retailers can gain a single view of the customer spanning all channels and sales touch points including mobile, online and in store shopping. This means retailers can gain insights on the fly, better predict and target products and promotions, as well as improve store design and pricing.

Bass Pro Shops® adopted IBM's new appliance to gain insight on their customers' needs and provide better products and shopping experiences across all their channels, consisting of retail stores, boat dealerships, internet and catalog sales, wholesale, and hospitality, including restaurants and world class destination resorts.

"IBM analytics allowed us to quickly get information across our multiple channels and lines of business in one place to deliver meaningful analytics that drive top line and bottom line results," said Leslie Weber, Chief Information Officer at Bass Pro Shops®. "We can now create and deliver more targeted promotions, circulars and catalogs to create a better customer shopping experience."

Using the new appliance, retail clients can now also expand their predictive analytics capabilities with SPSS Predictive Analytics and IBM's Global Business Services, allowing them to go deeper in customer segmentation and business analytics.

IBM Netezza appliances are optimized systems based on IBM BladeCenter technology that can analyze petabytes of data significantly faster than competing options, and at a much lower total cost of ownership. Unlike competing appliances, Netezza can be up and running in minutes instead of days or weeks.
