New App Offers Woodland Hills Savings

Mobile and online coupon provider Jeebster.com recently released its newest app in the iPhone market.

The Calabasas-based business provides online and mobile coupons, as well as offers from local, independent businesses. Unlike other online daily deal sites, the hyper-local firm sends personalized offers to its subscribers on a weekly basis.

“I wanted followers, not one-time consumers,” co-founder .

Talei’s family used to own a deli shop in Woodland Hills. Frustrated by the lack of repeat business from conventional marketing and advertising methods, Talei went on and created his own network referral system with far lower fees.

“We help consumers connect with local neighborhood businesses and support the community by encouraging local shopping,” said Talei, who, along with co-founder Gary Gillman, launched Jeebster.com in November 2011.

Since then, it has expanded from Calabasas to Woodland Hills, Tarzana and Studio City, with more cities in the pipeline.

The new iPhone app closely follows the release of the Android app, which came out in March.

Consumers can now get their Jeebster loyalty discount card “on-the-go” for a discount every time they shop at all participating merchants. Both apps also provide location-based coupons and offers.

When Patch conducted a search on Wednesday, we found deals at Under the Sea Indoor Playground, Yogurt Zone, the West Valley Pet Clinic and the Woodland Hills Pharmacy, just to name a few Woodland Hills businesses.

Even with the availability of both apps, consumers can still follow their favorite merchants on the Jeebster.com website and receive personalized offers via weekly e-mails.

Better yet, consumers can download the new Jeebster iPhone or Android app now by visiting Jeebster.com on their smart phones.
